Raf4: 1970s & 1980s igbos barely ate egusi as soup. Your soup was mainly leaves based. Likewise meat. They only ate dried fish then and if at all they must put meat, they usually cut them into size of agbalumo seeds.
Funny thing I have seen today . Do you Igbos and Yorubas know that egusi is also an important crop for most ethnic groups in nasarawa and other Northern States?
Exactly, they are very primitive. If not for bad political leaders, I don't see any country that is better than 9ja. Blacks are pure breed and we should be proud of ourselves and not let funny people insult us.
You're right, any time I feel dumb, I immediately remember that there's someone out there who thinks he's better than a black person because of skin color . Same thing applicable in Nigeria and the rest of the world. Nah, I can't... Not when I won't make it out of this world alive.
@DuBLINGreenb, I just saw that she eventually broke up with you , women! Her family is just too toxic, Jesus Christ!
This is similar to how my "babe" ended our situationship but I knew it would happen anyway because I'm what women would call "bad boy." I told her I would never break up with a woman unless she does, because as long as she gives me peace of mind — I could care less! I have many options!
Yes, I loved her but she was surprisingly when I said "okay, I saw that coming" with a laughing emoji. She expected me to beg or something...
9japride: It's very difficult to win that kind of battle especially something they have been practising for years. You will be shocked that the darker skin Indians are even very racist. I don't really know why they are like that. Though, I have met some of their ladies and they are very caring. The males are just too toxic.
Those male ones are the bàstards that throw the word "nigga" at me on ometv like I give a fúck. And all of those who do that are very ugly. I wonder why I would get mad over a word in 2024.
DuBLINGreenb: I am not begging for acceptance oh na she dey cry, dey fight she wants me, her parents don’t.
Person wey dey sleep next to me dey cry almost every night make I no find solution ? No be human being she be? No be human being I be? I get conscience abeg. Even if it was an animal, my pet crying almost every night will I not try to find solution?
modify: Relationship of over 1 year in a first world free country. How can you say I am begging. lol anyway she has gone this is the later/card she left for me to open after the flight takes off.
Forgive me, but I'm curious on what happened next? Are y'all still together?
Bea1234: Thanks for detailed response bro. God is our strength.
Pls what niche are you into and what made you delve into it? Cos I'm into self-help.. how do you see it?
I
1. Mostly books that solve people's need under self help, because I love writing about my personal experience, learning new things, and teaching them in a simple way and from my perspective. 2. Great.
"I Can Make You Disappear And Nothing Will Happen" - House Of Reps Member, Ikwechegh Slaps Bolt Driver
By Wisdom Nwedene
A Federal Lawmaker, representing Aba North and South Federal Constituency in the National Assembly has allegedly assaulted a bolt driver in his compound in Abuja.
In a video seen by 9News Nigeria, the Bolt driver said he went to deliver something to the Lawmaler but he took offence and assaulted him just because the he asked the him to come to the car to pick up his package, which is snails he ordered from a vendor.
In the video, the lawmaker can be seen slapping the driver multiple times. Later the driver asked him "did you just slap me three times?", which je replied, "twice and you will soon receive the third slap".
Also, in the video, Ikwechegh was heard telling the vendor that he can make the driver disappear and nothing will happen.
"I can make you disappear in the whole of Nigeria and nothing will happen. Do you know who I am?".
"I am a Senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and I can lock you up in my Generator House and nothing will happen," Ikwechegh said in the viral video.
He also said he won't ask the police officers protecting him to beat up the driver but will do it himself.
Meanwhile, the action has generated a mixed reaction on the social media.
A Facebook user Ogochukwu said ;" This is very disappointing coming from a Lawmaker but again it also shows that a lot of our elected political office holders should have no business in governance."
"Imagine getting this violent because the bolt driver asked you come to the car and get your package. Imagine what he will do if it is a very serious offence committed against him."
Give these bastards power and they joyfully abuse it because they feel untouchable! My blood is boiling, I just want to spend 10 minutes with this lunatic in the jungle!
"After crazy research, I bought a kdp course from a guru on nairaland and reinforced my stance on using kdp as a stepping stone no matter what it takes.
After losing my files including my book, I started writing another book early July and I got 2 chapters left.
The odds are against me — I'm too broke to afford a graphic designer or anything, so I would be doing the formatting z editing, writing and designing of cover.
So help me God. Looking forward to publishing my first book before 15—20 of this month. Amen."
I already started writing, but I lost the file when the files in my PC wiped out on its own... I had already decided to take the risk and use my last penny to get a Nairaland "guru," I was already done going through the course when it happened.
iLegendd: I rarely upgrade phones except the one I'm using is bad and beyond repair. You'll need to ask questions about battery strength before you buy. When I was using Tecno, the battery was perfect.
When I used Gionee, the battery was close to none I have ever used and I ended up using more than 6 Gionees because of battery and security features, but the company has folded. I got Oppo and zero regrets as the battery is even better than the Gionee and the phone is so flat with security features I love too.
I'll only go back to Apple when they stop producing phones every week to rip people off instead of being innovative like Huawei Mate X trifold. So for Apple, no idea.
If you want to format your PC, do backup first. My slim Oppo slammed on the tile weeks ago and I thought it's over because of the impact of the fall and I have no screen protector and no casing.
I was already calculating heading to the mall to get a new phone. Picked it and everything was perfect. Zero scratch and life goes on.
When I initially bought it, it charges within 20-30 minutes and lasts forever, but now, it takes 40-50 minutes to charge and still lasts as it used to.
Sir, may I know the versions of the Oppo? I can use anything as long as the battery is durable and it's fast. Sadly, my itel p15 is just 1 gb ram and 16g memory space. I bought it in 2021. I meant I want to use the phone for writing and my PC for formatting the manuscript. Thank you so much, sir.
iLegendd: It's monopoly. Elon Musk will soon do it when he launches Tesla phone. As long as he doesn't use Android OS, but develops his own OS, Apple will react and complain to the US government.
Igbo men do it too. You'll go to an area and every single shop or barbershops is owned by one person with different names and they act as if they're enemies, but it's owned by one person.
Hotel, the same. So, it's the game rich men play. Focus on one thing and conquer it, them compete with yourself without people knowing it's you.
Facts!
My plan has always been to ensure that money will never be a problem to me and the people I love and respect.
For example, despite all the obstacles, I've been pushing my publishing biz even with the inconstant power supply . I believe that is what will catapult my financial strength so I can diversify.
Boss, if you don't mind, I have a question that's been bothering me, I don know when i will come online again because of this light issue: I'm currently in the countryside pushing my business and was able to make $150 from one book after all the tears and sweat. My biggest obstacle now is light. I've been managing my itel p15 1g ram phone for years and it's beyond damaged now so I can't use it for this biz. The screen keeps blinking and the charging point is gone.
I know you hammer on investment, should I get another phone to enable me write with it and format on my PC? Please, what type would you suggest sir for this biz especially as someone like me that lives in a place with no light? I really appreciate you boss and value your opinion, I'm even currently going through one of your old threads right now with my last minute battery . I dey addicted to it (Tell Me What is Better than this [Pictures]).
U wan try stop to dey beat ur meat again - symptoms.
Scientists no go kill us
The research is true, this is what I've been experiencing whenever I abstain from porn and masturbation (like I'm doing right now). And surprisingly, these scientists won't even agree I'm an addict evening though I identification as one.
