U should know by now that 98% of men of God in naija are jst business men wit plenty branches. DADDY g.o saw a yoruba muslim man becoming president n he kept quiet while d whole christian community were against muslim muslim ticket all becos of tribalism.He chose tribe than his fate becos yoruba men no matter how educated will always be tribalistic.it pains me saying this knowing i hav a yoruba gf i luv so mch .
Forget gf issue! Irrespective of tribe, religion and educational level, everyone is entitled to who they support politically.

The funny thing is that most people who criticize others for supporting a particular candidate base on tribe affiliation, are equally guilty of the same thing.

PropertiesRe: How Can I Avoid Being Scammed, I'm About To Buy A House by Stevenbright(m): 12:33am On Aug 14, 2023
Brainbox0806:
Good day to you all, I'm on the verge of buying a house for a close family, I bare the responsibility of making payment and verifying that the property is genuine because I'm the one that introduced him to the agent.

I'm trying to be careful because of some clauses that involves the originality of the seller. Mr. A built the house from the ground, lived in it for like seven months then relocated abroad, he appointed a representative ( I think his brother) to sell the property, Mr. B ( also from abroad ) contacted a company to buy the property on his behalf, the property was inspected buy consultant C ( A company ), payment was made and the house was taken over by consultant C but Mr B never occupied the said house since Inception of the purchase, after 15 months of procurement Mr B decided to sell the property through same consultant C.

The neighbour can't ascertain the relationship between Mr A and consultant C , but Mr A has been informed by a neighbour about the presence of consultant C in the house and he confirmed that the house has been sold off . Consultant C do visit the house periodically but the house remains under lock.

The problem now is that consultant C want me to pay directly to him, refusing to give me Mr B. phone number for verification, sighting that the consent letter given to him by Mr B is enough proof. I suspect he's hiding the real price from the owner but I don't want to go ahead without verifying the identity of Mr B ( the current seller). The intending buyer is so in love with the house and cant wait to make payment but I'm hellbent of hearing from Mr B

Kindly advise.
You are doing the right thing. But I suggest you involve your own lawyer to avoid story that touches!

It is good you start off your independent digital book publishing career exclusively with Amazon as it has the highest share of international Book market (about 60%). This gives you good visibility through its Kindle Select program and hence building up readers following.

Once you get to understand the game, you can then go wide with some of your books through other digital publishing platforms like Lulu and Draft2Digital

FamilyRe: My Funny Experience Trying To Double My Money by Stevenbright(m):
Supreme145:
I finally got the much-awaited salary alert early this morning, I have been very broke with bills choking me left, right, and center. I heaved a sigh of relief as I proceeded to check the message, ah finally I will get a breather at least for a couple of weeks, or so I thought.

My smiling face soon turned into a frown as I stared at the credit alert. I just received 20k instead of 70k, I developed a migraine immediately. I quickly chatted up my boss to complain and he nonchalantly told me there was no money for now so I should make do with the one he sent. Omo Nigeria come dey me like Ghana.

I took out a pen and paper and started writing out the most pressing bills:
I needed to pick up my laptop from the technician and that alone would cost 10k. I work from home so I need the laptop.
A friend of mine sold his television to me some months back because he got a bigger one, I wasn't interested in buying the TV because wetin I no fit afford no dey hungry me but he insisted I should keep it and pay him whenever I am ready. Toh...i kuku carry television dey use. Now he has been on my neck to pay, I promised to give him at least 10k part payment if I receive my salary, I don even tell am make he past aza...hehehe.
There is nothing at home even a cube of maggi and gas is finished so I need to restock the kitchen.
Since I work on a part-time basis as a web designer and the job is not stable, I already saw it coming so I already made plans to design a blog and a portfolio website so that I start blogging which will probably start bringing income in maybe few months time. I already estimated 15k for both domain and hosting.

Light bill has been waiting including other small debts hanging around. Now all I had on me was just 20k so I had to devise a way to increase the money somehow at least to take care of 50% of my bills. I thought long and hard and came up with a plan.

I remembered that I have an old sporty bet account that I created some time ago but didn't use, I dusted it and got ready for my money-doubling journey. Hehehe I don't like gambling but it looked like the last resort in this case. It was a 50:50 chance, either I win or I lose though I sincerely wished for the former.

I first of all repaid the 2k I was owing my network provider then recharged another 1k so I could get data, I was left with 17k. I transferred 2k to the bet app and staked on 2 games with a potential win of 5k. I exited the app and got busy with other stuff only the check the game later and discovered that I lost the bet. A team with a 90% probability of winning conceded a penalty in the 7th minute and could only managed to draw the match after over 15 shots on target. Omo I enter into panic mode, I had just 15k left and I never even chop, what do I do? Do I chase or cut my loss?

After much deliberation and brainstorming, I decided to go all in, all die na die, if I perish I perish. If Easter a woman can have such faith why can't me a whole man do the same. Okay naa there was only one way to find out. I funded another 5k in the betting account, this time I staked on live games playing 1:1 in the 81st minute to draw. I kept refreshing the app with my heart racing, 90+ and this game no gree finish ahhhh. 93+ I refreshed and saw 1:2, Jesus oooo a scream escaped my lips 😂😂 I kept muttering Jesus, Jesus, Jesus...why why why. I quickly checked two different live scores to be sure it wasn't a nistake, my eyes 👀 were blinking 15 times per second, I couldn't believe what I just witnessed.

Luckily for my the second game entered but I won just 2900, I cut my losses and hurriedly sent it to my bank account and deleted the app immediately, apparently sports betting is not for me at all. I rushed to a nearby POS and withdrew the remaining money before I am tempted to try again. On my way back home my younger sister called and billed me 4k and it was for something very urgent, I told her I could only afford 2k which I sent to her.

I proceeded to nearby restaurant to eat and returned home with 10k without the faintest idea on how to use it. I already decided to tell my friend to come and carry his TV, after all it's been for fancy since my sub finished weeks back. This is going to be a really long month.

Thanks for reading guys.
Don't return the television. It is very important and to buy a new will be very much expensive. Just tell him what happened with respect to your salary payment and ask for more time to pay the part payment.

Nigaraw:
Met this girl online last year January, after exchanging numbers we started vibing and the whole talking stage thing. Started dating a month later . Things were so good thought I have found myself a lovely soul. She was good but much more concerned about aesthetics, snap for the glam , do some weird things for Twitter likes. Her role models are always relationship people . Gave her some advice to go back to school because she was a drop out she didn’t heed.

Okay gave her money to start some business she spent on uselsss things . She just want all that lovely dovy Instagram lifestyle and relationship glamour . Couldn’t deal broke up with her . Ever since then it’s been one hell of a ride . Everyday subbing my ass on Twitter . I don’t block people never blocked any of my exes .

She’d upload guys pictures and all.I really don’t care now I noticed her freinds writing some shit and even have the guts to tag me . Like is it even up to that huh Like why can’t some people just deal with break up . You teaming up to sub your ex is the new cool now.?


I have been blocking some of her friends but they still keep opening burner accounts and tagging me . I run a business with my account anybody with a good suggestion??
Keep blocking her friends. It is much more difficult to open a new account than to block one, so they will get tired soon.

Also, try to truly ignore them all including your ex.

To give further answers to your questions;
Yes she was groomed in a morally inclined, home as we met and fell in love in church. She graduated from one of those church private university in Nigeria. She is modest to say the least and I TREAT HER AS AN EQUAL and respect/give room to her views/opinions cos my mother trained her boy even though she wasn't rich. I ain't a religious guy since i hardly go to church but i have a good standing with my creator in prayer and supplication.
My just fear is the cultural evolution over there knowing fully well it does not favor men. I only wanted to be on a safer option perhaps else i am considering prenup!
Forget about meeting in church. Different people go there for different reasons.

Someone who put up a knife during disagreement is definitely not well brought up or has lost the good upbringing!

I’m about to purchase 10 pieces of POS aluminum kiosk to be distributed to anyone who want to make some money and can take care of the business. I want to know the minimum amount I can give each as capital to return 5k daily each. Attached is the type of POS kiosk I want to purchase.
#5000 is too high for them to return daily.

For now, they charge #100 per #1000 withdrawal. This means that you need to give them #500,000 each day for the #5000 return to be possible.

Now, what about the worker's? Let us assume the attendant will have a #2000 take home daily, that means additional #200,000 capital, making a total of #700,000 capital for each of them daily.

Also, not all of them can be able to sell the #700,000 daily as a result of the peculiarity of each location with respect to customer availability. That means you can't assume a flat earning rate for all of them as that will lead to the presume failure of most of them.

RomanceRe: Married But In Love With Someone Else by Stevenbright(m): 1:15pm On Jul 26, 2023
Mhistasaints:
I've been married for four years now, and it seems my wife has become a stranger.

We've been having issues from the first year, mostly on different styles of life.
I am a guy who loves managing resources and very focused on achievements because I was born with a silver spoon but lost it due to the death of my father, I never wanted to experience the same thing as I did when he died.
She on the other hand is comfortable and okay with what she has, not too bothered about achievements.

I've been calling for management of resources for a while but she's the type that grew up in a very comfortable home and knows not how to manage resources.

Another issue on my part is that, she does not really care about how she looks and that's one of the things I care about.

I lost, or should I say resigned from my first job due to pressure and things became hard. I had to sell some of my landed properties so we could survive.

I got another Job and in six months, I made millions. We lived well until I wanted to chase my passion in banking again.

Got back into banking and to cut the story short, I met one lady where I was sent to. I loved her. I wish I had met her first honestly. In a year, she showed me a lot in the kind of woman I wanted. Then I lost my job again, this time because I wanted to go for youth service.

I got back home and I told my wife the game plan. I bought foodstuffs for at least two months and went for camp. In less than a week, my mother called me and was angry why I left my wife and two kids hungry. I exeated camp immediately and came back home. After investigating, I found out she sent the food to her mother who is an associate professor, without telling me and while she knows out conditions.

I got so angry. I wanted her out.
I considered things because my second child which she had by force is just 5months. She had the baby because she stopped taking contraceptives because of advice from people that if she has a male child for me, I'll stay.
After much, she can't leave, because who will take care of the boy?

Yesterday, she read my messages and discovered I was having an affair and wants to leave. I told the lady off this morning but, I still loved her.

I can't allow that. Even if she does, she has to wait for the boy to be at least a year old. Remember she was the one that wanted this baby, not me. Now she wants to leave the liability for me?
And I can't allow my kids to grow with her because I don't want them to learn such lifestyle.

What should I do?
The fault is yours!

You are not contented with what you've got.

What if that lady is just pretending! She knows you are married and she is dating you! If you get married to her, she will also be dating other guys outside.

Once she gets a job, her employer sponsors and she leaves the country.

Maybe he said that in subsequent posts. My comment is on the main post. And on that post, no mention of the fact that she already passed the exam but that he registered it for her three times in the space of 6 months.

It's not them you're marrying, it's your lady.

It is not easy to come by someone you're so compatible with these days.
Someone that understands you as much as you understand her.
It's like you were made for each other.
I believe you will be happy married to her.
Which kind of compatibility are you talking about?

The guy is just managing things he can't bear in marriage. He said he takes care of her down to paying for her professional exams three times to the extent she doesn't touch her salary since they met. He does the chores himself but claims to enjoy doing them which is a lie.

The lady is just using him and she will continue with it if they eventually tie the knot.

They want to use you to enable her travel out. Once they achieve that, they will go back to their initial objection of differences in tribe. I don't even know why you are forcing yourself on her. They simply don't want you but your money!

Good afternoon nairalanders,
I have been diagnosed with staphylococcus aureus for the second time,
This is making it the second time I have been diagnosed with staph,the first time I took the injection that was sensitive to the infection but it didn't work,I even took herbal drug it didn't work.

I am still wondering how I got this infection cos I'm still a virgin, people say the infection is contacted through sex.

Guys please help me out, should I take the drugs recommended in the lab results??I am having a feeling it won't work cos the previous one didn't work.
Please anyone with a solution should come to my aid.
Frequent urination is the only symptom I am having.

Thanks.
It's your mind playing a trick on you. You just showcased that mindset (negative mindset) by saying that you believe if you take the drug, it will not work.

So, what you need is to develop a positive mental attitude by hoping for and always seeing the best in all situations. Just be positive.

FamilyRe: How Betting Is Ruining Me And My Family Bond. Help!!! by Stevenbright(m): 6:35pm On Jul 16, 2023
Trying2BeStronG:
Good evening guys. All I am about to say right now is true and based on what is currently happening in my life. I am a vibrant 28years old guy, completed school, has worked good jobs over the years, spent some couple of years abroad also.

However, something seems to be killing me deeply which is BETTING. I started since the inception of bet9ja and have grown over the years to become a staunch addict. I am so addicted to the extent I constantly used my salaries and even went to the extent of taken several loans to play bet. I try to balance between my salaries and the debt I owe.

I left Nigeria and travelled abroad, all through my stay abroad I could not save a dime due to betting even as I was earning a very cool salary. Recently I came back to Nigeria and I arrived to stay at my parents place for like 2 months and you know what, I came back with barely nothing . I have now taken my addiction to an extent of even taking money from my mum and sister's bank account to fund my betting lifestyle only for me to lose all this money with no means to refund them back.

. Tonight my mum called me to talk about the money and I truly felt so bad, we all know how sharp the words of African mum can be. I don't know what to do anymore, maybe I am being possessed or I am having a spiritual attacks I can't really say. I just can't get it straight anymore.


Honestly, I have been feeling depressed and having mood swings recently to the extent of even contemplating suicide but I am trying to stay strong. Instead of committing suicide I am planning to leave the house without notice and move on with my life somewhere else. I have failed my Family woefully .
You don't have any spiritual problem. Rather, you are your own problem because you still feel you have lost too much on betting and that continuing to play will ensure you win big one day to cover all your losses. This is delusional and the sucker that got you hooked. So, these are some of the things you need to do:

1. Tell yourself you can't ever recover all you had lost to betting and that you need to stop now before it destroys you completely.

2. If it is possible, deactivate All your betting accounts.

3. Dispose off your android phone for now and start using a touch light phone.

4. Write down all the list of what you have lost and will still lost if you don't stop the addiction now and a second list of all you stand to gain in the next few years if you are able to overcome it. Use the reading of the two lists daily to remind and motivate you to remain discipline in your resolve to stop betting.
