SingleDaddy:


Which means you prefer Abuja to Lagos ?

Yes Sir.

peacengine:


Hey Bro, I'm not from Lag but I stay there for business. I don't think you should make general statements. If u wanna enjoy Lag, you can, there's an impressive foreign community here. During weekends and evenings after work, you see them on their bicycles riding about freely or jogging through Ikoyi link. It depends on where you live bro. If you live in Mushin, expect ruffians. If u wanna live fine target estates, stay around Ikeja, Maryland, Ilupeju, Apapa, Festac extension, some parts of surulere, , Airforce/Navy barracks, I've not even started naming places bro, there are many cool areas as well as rugged ones but Mushin and Ajegunle are amongst the most rugged, you can't use them to judge everywhere. Island is very cool. Lagos is too big to generalise.

Oga I'm currently staying at one of the hotels at Ikoyi. Clearly, you should understand that I sleep and wake up, use the same swimming pool, bar and restaurant daily with the whitemen or whatever you call them.

I am only concerned for the average Lagosian's daily life experiences when juxtaposed with those of other city dwellers.

travelland:


I was wondering about this over hyped stuff you kept repeating.

Did you go to the Market alone as a first timer in Lagos? That's a mistake, you won't get a good bargain. Do you know that there are major matkets for all items or goods? For example for Dubai fashion wears, US, Turkey and China,
For second hand fashion items and even jewelries.There are major markets for autoparts, food product, electronics, computer, etc.

Refuse disposal and sewage management is only good in rich areas and organized estates, many markets are terrible at managing their refuse, hence the odor

I've not encountered private vehicles being extorted, most LGs allow the collection of these money by the area boys from commercial buses/cyclists, it's like tax payment (which I don't support) even some police are involved.
Mushin is among the roughest areas na, so what do you expect? You won't see that in some other areas

Lagosians survive by making money na business thrives here.

Nobody should hype Lagos for you o, it's a commercial state where most people are after money.

I went to market with my cousin. I'm not a first-timer in Lagos market. I bought my first laptop in Lagos in my NYSC year. I have also been to Lagos a couple of times for job interviews and other issues.

To be sincere, I am not impressed with what I have seen in Lagos for the past few weeks I've been around here (judging from lifestyle and average standard of living).

I just feel Lagosians are suffering and smiling safe for the super rich.

Also, the traffic jams everywhere remain a big turn off for me.

DONADAMS:
overhyped in what way?

In everyway. I didn't want to carry luggage hoping to buy some clothes and shoes here. I was surprised that the price of clothes here were far higher than what we get in Aba.

The stench that pervades the air as you approach 3rd Mainland bridge from Ikoyi despite I don't wind down the car windows.

The long heavy traffic jam on the 3rd mainland bridge.

The constant estortion of area boys in Mushin.

I do not know how Lagosians survive. No wonder they are aggressive.

Espada10:
If only akwaibom or calabar had a good functional seaport and international airport with embassies ...

we won't be here discussing abuja or lagos. ...no sane person will even be crossing onitsha -asaba bridge.

I will be relating more with cameroonians and other nearby african countries than the 2 toxic cities mentioned above

Bro I'm currently in Lagos. The city is overhyped. I feel strong pity for it's residents. How they cope with daily traffic jam here baffles me. Na wa o. Make I do begin dey go back to the East.

Maybe he tried to molest the lady. Wicked animal

While you are still waiting for idea. Invest with first bank market fund of 13 percent every 30 days.

Hi. Details

Something dey hungry her.

Darkchick:
You can buy a small bag of pepper for #1500 in Azara market Kaduna road, and sold it's sold at the rate of #6500 in Lagos, a J5 bus can carry up-to 90 bags at one trip and they charge #110,000 per trip. Let's calculate.
#1500 * 90 = #135,000
#135,000 + #110,000 = #245,000

A bag to be sold for #6,500
#6,500 * 90 = #585,000

So.. #585,000 - #245,000 = #340,000.

Bro, # 300,000 is sure per trip.

There are many cheap stuffs you can buy from the north and resale in Lagos. E.g you can get matured goats for #4,000 each and resale for #12k or 11k.
The good thing is that you don't sell by yourself, dilaali (Hausa dealers) are readily available to sell for you while they charge a token from you.

You may think you're too big for these businesses but I bet the profit is cool.

Are you based in the north?

I'm not surprised at all.

Juju full Ijebu. I'm currently working at Ijebu. Everywhere you enter na juju juju.

What kind of animals do we have as policemen in this country sef
They can't even treat an innocent minor differently! To them everyone is a criminal one way or another.
Bunch of demented and confused zombies

ola9ja:
Most of these girls don't really love us, it's just a symbiotic relationship, I would be ending my present relationship on Monday, my birthday, I really thought I would get married to her but the relationship has become a toxic one so I had to move on with my life. I can not manage a toxic relationship, imagine sacrificing so much in a relationship that you have to go out of your own will to meet her needs , I have bought her phones twice, paid more than half of her house rent in school twice, it's a distant relationship and we have dated for 3years +, she hasn't even bought me an handkerchief before, I can't figure out one thing that I have learnt from her, I don't and won't regret what I have done for her but I am saddened that I have been in relationship with the wrong person for 5 fruitful years of my life. I will be 31 on Monday.

I don't regret spending on people but I usually get frustrated spending wrongly on people.

I like living people better than the way I met them.

I wouldn't really assume that I didn't learn anything from this relationship, I have learnt a lot and these are the things I have learnt...

1. Even the kindest person can turn into a cold-hearted person.

2. Even if you're madly in love, you should never think with your heart but with your brain.

3. You should never put your happiness in someone else’s hands because you never know when they will decide to leave you.

4. The more you show a person you love them, the less they will reciprocate or appreciate it.

5. It’s human nature to take things for granted, specially in long term relationships. They’ll always look for something better once the infatuation phase ends.

6. Relationships should not be governed solely by love, but also and most importantly by trust, understanding, maturity and SELF-RESPECT.

7. The moment you lose your self-respect you will see your partner as ‘too good to be true’. You will put them on a pedestal and be their slave. Never lose your self-respect and dignity.

8. Master the balance of power and you’ll master the whole relationship.

9. If you constantly show them you love them and care for them, they will start taking you for granted.

10. Distance yourself from your partner from time to time. It will help you see your relationship in a proper perspective.

11. Two main things should be present in a relationship: Trust and communication. If one of them is absent, your relationship is doomed to fail.

12. Being needy and clingy out of love is never a good idea because it will push your partner away and make them love you less.

13. The person that loves less in the relationship is the one in control of the relationship. It’s important to set a balance of power between you two or else one of you will definitely get hurt.

14. If your happiness is in someone else’s hands you’re rooting for conditional happiness. If they leave you, you will end up all alone, sad, depressed, hopeless and even suicidal. No one on this planet should control your happiness other than yourself.

15. The moment you hurt your partner, they will change forever even though you try your best to bring their good old self back.

16. Even if you give someone your heart, it’s not guaranteed that they will reciprocate.

17. The moment they start showing lack of interest, believe them instead of trying to convince yourself that they’re ‘mad’ or ‘going through a phase’ and that everything will be alright.

18. What’s meant for you will always be yours.

19. Sometimes God removes people from your life in an abrupt way because you were being led to danger.

20. If you walked away from a one-sided, toxic, negative, low-vibrational relationship, you won.
And the list goes on…

Most importantly, stay strong in any relationship you’re in. People come and go, the ones meant for you will stay. Stay strong when you're at your lowest and never let a heartbreak define you.

Just have faith and learn to always smile no matter what!

I understand you because I've been in your shoes. Don't change your mind later. Move on and don't look back!

ARCHEMEDESME:
My mum makes it look like engineers are poor and are mostly teachers.

I'm an engineer. I studied Elect/Elect. Follow your passion. Your mum is very wrong. My net pay ( take home) in the first job I got after graduation was #165,000 as at 2012. Today I'm earning more than twice that amount! Still in Nigeria.

Lol

vicoson:
And this news comes from only one source? Voice of liberty was the only media at the function. Could that tape be doctored?

So the man who came to assist him was also doctored into the video?

what do u expect from a half baked bread.he got there not because of merit, but because his kith and kins control this sh*t called Nigeria

Na wao. No wonder the guy is avoiding the Senate like Ebola.�

shamecurls:
Work for Chinese, Lebanes or Indian company and you will agree that Nigerians are better off.

Those ones are very dangerous. I'm currently working with a Chinese/Nigerian partnership firm. No be small thing I dey see.

It seems there is a charge by the police high command to the rank and file to embark on an extorting spree. The way the police extort motorists here in Aba, if not checked, could result to massive protests soon.

this armed robber who used Federal might to steal his way to government house in Ekiti never know anything...you think there will be a Mumu Gej, an Obanikoro or Gen Momoh to save you in July 14? Well,well,well Fayemi now has that federal mighty (no apology to PEJ); Rotimi Amaechi , Oshiomole and co that Mimiko helped you locked away in Ondo now have the CBN,Police, SSS, air/land/sea space, etc in their hands coupled with the fact Fayemi never owed Ekiti 6 months; started the monthly stipend for youth and elders which you have scrapped; increased Ekiti IGR which you are stealing and several other sins which you have committed Mr thugnor Fayose. This is payback time and we know you are damn jittery inside of you because you have no achievement to campaign with. July 14..

Why is he begging for forgiveness if he did so well in his previous tenure?

Mutemenot:


The genesis of his complain is cos of what he spent. Spending for women expecting something in return is nonsense

The list there is traditional rites of marriage! The guys has married her.

mekaboy:
Economic battle between US and china. They have seen that china is taking over the African market and will increase taxes in their products. Then they summon buhari to US to force American products on Nigeria.

Threaten buhari with deadline to buy jet with deadline. He went on to collect money like someone under the spell of yahoo guys to pay, without NAS.

And dangote the monopoly lord, went to take over imp ort.

ZTE is already having issues with operations in Nigeria at the moment.

Try that with me, I make sure I dump you for one of your friends.

tuoyoojo:
while trying to save face, he is digging a deeper pit for himself. why would he not just keep shut

it is a slap on the face on the northern hordes mainly made of youths who came out to support him when he went to the north for official visit.
they climbed telecoms masts to hail and see their lord n master who praised them by calling them uneducated when he did absolutely nothing to educate them.

this is the same person whose waec certificate is nepa bill

it is basically biting the hands that fed you.
but what do I know. if baba calls them fools tomorrow, they would chant "sai baba! carry go"

this is why this country keeps going round in circles because youths are being trampled to the extent they have no say

back to his first insult, would it be right for the North that does not have a single drop of oil to claim free housing because they are oil producing.

who was he truly referring to

do u really need to extrapolate?

baba dey give those people when dey defend am better work o
I truly feel for them

He knows the northern youths are more gullible than their southern counterparts.

We know the morons and coconut heads twisting statements to suit their hatred. We will ensure your plan to return looters to power inNigeria will fail...

What happens after 2023?

Buhari is a beast, the police are a beast and apc is a beast.

Melaye is one of the henchmen in APC.

Melian:
If these are the reasons he likes Chioma, then there's nothing really special about her. Unfortunately for him, davido, he's been meeting the wrong set of women that chioma's characteristics now seem peculiar/special to him.

There is a lot of deep meaning in what he said.

decatalyst:
E go clear from your eyes soon...





Iranu

I disagree with you. The length of courtship doesn't determine how long a marriage will last.

Very touching.

The idiot pastor from Imo state does not know that this did not happen in Aba but in Imo State.
