jazzman7711:
Where does one start?

In every sector I am seeing improvement.

7 more years of this, and we could be the JAPAN of Africa.

But here’s the joker. The icing on the cake that will jell all these improvements into one unstoppable snowball of progress and advancement, and that is the POWER SECTOR.

I am 1,000% certain that Tinubu will be the president to finally solve the power issue in Nigeria.

And when that happens, all I can say is, “the rest of the world, watch out for this powerhouse of an African giant. THE NEXT JAPAN, and the first genuine BLACK SUPERPOWER of the modern era.”
You must still be under parental care to make such assessment. You are not responsible for any bill(s) yet. Y

Crime › Re: 100-Year-Old Mother Killed By Her Son Over Palm Oil Proceeds In Osun by SWATMan: 9:59am On Apr 15, 2024
[quote author= post=129445208]A resident of Kajola Village near Apomu in Osun State, Lukman Adejoju, has been arrested by the police for allegedly killing his mother, Aminat, who was said to be around 100 years old, following a dispute over proceeds of palm oil they sold.

Sources resident in the village who knew about the incident but preferred to speak on the condition of anonymity told PUNCH Metro that it happened around 4:00 pm on Saturday when the suspect and the deceased were going to the farm.

A villager, who preferred anonymity, said the suspect attacked his mother due to a disagreement between them over the money they were to be paid by their labourer that assisted them in selling the palm oil.

Another villager, simply identified as Rasaki, said Lukman and the deceased mother hired the labourer, who assisted them in selling some kegs of palm oil.

Having assisted them in selling the items, he said the man wanted to remit the proceeds, and the late Aminat reportedly insisted that the money should be paid to her, which angered the suspect.

He further said, “Residents of the village were all disappointed when we heard of the incident. The incident happened in Kajola village near Apomu on Saturday at about 4 pm.

“We heard that Lukman who should be around 63 years old had a disagreement with her mother, Aminat, aged 100 years, over who should collect the proceeds from their palm oil plantation.

“A labourer that was hired by the two of them wanted to remit the proceeds of the sales but the mother insisted that she ought to receive it first. That led to a serious misunderstanding. Lukman attacked the woman and killed her.”

He said the incident led to tension resulting in the arrival of security agents like the police, Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps, and others to douse the tension.

When contacted, the spokesperson for the Osun State Command of the NSCDC, Kehinde Adeleke, said the suspect was arrested and taken to a police station in Apomu, adding that normalcy had returned to the village.

The Osun State Police Public Relations Officer, Yemisi Opalola, who said the suspect had been transferred to the command headquarters in Osogbo for further investigation, noted that Lukman was helping investigation into the crime.

Opalola said, “They were both going to farm when they disagreed. The suspect said he could not explain the spirit that possessed him. He admitted that he pushed the deceased, who should be about 100 years old and the woman fell and died.

“He has been transferred to the Criminal Investigation Department in the headquarters in Osogbo for further investigations.”

You birthed a murderer and not a son.
BTW if this incident had happened in the region where there's palm oil as i initially thought, these blightering dimwits from a particular region would have attributed it to a lot of nonsense including poor upbringing.

My wife has left me close to 3 years now and I want to settle down.
But I don't know if it's advisable for me to settle down with this single mother because I told her that our friendship could turn to something more serious later and, she said there's no problem about that.
What do you think friends.
She's a widow and not a single mother according to your post. Please change the heading..

You can't be joined in a holy matrimony unless both of of you register the marriage at the LGA registry in the Catholic, and other orthodox Christian churches. (Don't know about the pentecostals) So the second wife is the legally married one.

The conspiracies regarding this solar eclipse is just so disgusting and shows how brainless lots of people are ...the eclipse will come and go, life will continue as normal, the foolish ones will find a flimsy reason to justify their foolishness and the perpetrators of these theories will wait for another event to brainwash the foolish ones ..
A person with brain is believing that cern, will open doorway to other dimension and let entities into the earth,
People believe the world will come to an end today
People believe so many stupid things ..
People with no working brain, no knowledge of what cern is all about..yet they are quick to consume nonsense and believe it ..
I weep for some humans. ..
If there's anyone to weep for, l think it's you. Your outburst shows your nativity about supernatural things. You Don't have to attack other peoples belief just because you dont reason as they do. Christians are interested in this event because Jesus told;them that towards the end there will be signs and wonders in the heavens, hence to them it's an end times warning. Solar eclipse is a natural phenomena to a scientist, but is it same to an aststrologer?

Honestly this CBN governor is just very clueless! Where will commercial banks get the funds from? Even if they issue IPO how many nigerians can purchase and for what exactly? Why would any nigerian wan to tie their funds as shares?Does this fool even realise that the eventual mergers will lead to lay-offs? Thereby increasing the unemployment situation in a country where farming is basically a deadly job? Gosh! Why can't he instead issue federal govt bonds at massive interest rate like 15% so that he can mop up excess liquidity in the economy thereby dropping inflation? Then govt invest the funds into capital projects?
...



He was once a bank CEO. He failed because he couldn't manage CITIZENS bank to profitablity. Now he wants to copy Soludo's bank recapitalization without a working document like the NEEDS doc developed and implemented as part of the OBJ's economic reforms. The present government needs a similar blueprint for this unrealistic economic approach to succeed.

Romance › Re: Did I Make The Right Decision To Leave My Fiance? by SWATMan: 1:12pm On Mar 24, 2024
Happytravels:
I left him because he cheated on me twice online within 1 year, and was very distant from me. Any little problem he would turn his phone off and not reply. Sometimes I was hurting so much, yet he would still ignore me. Any small problem I tried to talk about, he would just tell me I was a headache and then he would stop talking to me again. But not just that, all year he did not have job. I even give him what little money I have for his mother and himself. He asked for money and told me it is very hard to find job in owerri or Lagos and he won't make much. If I did not give him money, he would have no food. I felt bad. We were getting married in two weeks time, but I was just over his treatment of me. He did not do things I wanted in a man. He said he would get himself together when he would move in with me, but I don't know. In the meantime I met someone who was everything I wanted. A good job, a nice place, always communicated with me, always make me feel happy. I had to make a decision to stay with my fiance (soon to be husband) or leave for this guy who is much more my type of man.. so I left my fiance of 1-2 year.

Nothing was changing much with him. And he would not listen on his to keep a woman happy.
I am very heart broken about this. And his sis told me she does not know were he gone. He left her house and went "crazy" she said. I don't know if he is trying to hurt himself or not. He told me yesterday that he tried to end his life. He begged he would change. But he said he will change many times but never does. I feel so bad and worried for him. But he did not care much for me when I was suffering so much and even wanted to die because of his mistreatment. I am hoping he will not take his life. I hope he is just hurting now. And I am hurting too. But sometimes you cannot change someone who does not want to be a better person. Who hurts you daily. And cannot be the man you need.

Do you think I made a good or bad decision?
The single most important choice you will ever make is whom you marry.

Marrying the wrong person will ruin your life. And it will continue ruining your life until your spouse dies or you get divorced. And getting divorced is one of the worst experiences a person can suffer. It also can be financially devastating.

If your gut tells you something is not quite right, listen to it. Don’t use rationalizations. Your gut is almost always right when it comes to dating.

A person addicted to whatever while you are dating has not proven that he or she can break his or her addiction. If the addiction is to cigarettes, it doesn’t matter—or exercise, or eating well. But if the person is addicted to steroids, or alcohol, get the Bleep out. You can’t save them. Only they can do that.

If a person has beaten an addiction and is/or getting help, that is a different matter. Plenty of former addicts are fine.

You cannot change your partner. That is impossible. And if you want them to change, they aren’t for you. You have to be okay with your partner as they are right now.

There is nothing you can do about your spouse changing during marriage. Aging and life experiences do that. You have to compromise on the effects of it if you want to stay married. That is the work of marriage.

If you are already married, unless things are really toxic, you are better off staying in the marriage. There is no perfect person for you. Your goal is to find someone you love but also you can live with. That is success.

[b]You aren’t perfect. You probably have issues. So do they. [/b]The question is not about these things. The question is “can we live with each other and each other’s issues?” If the answer is yes, you will be okay.

Life is about compromises. If you are a 5 on the mating market given your mix of personality, status, and looks, you are going to need to find a mate in the 4–6 zones. Only the 10’s get the 9–10’s. Is life fair? No. Maybe you will get extremely lucky and marry up. But don’t count on it.

If you are a spender and your mate is a saver, you will have conflict. You need to work out something you can live with happily or not get married. Money is the leading cause of fighting and divorce. Adultery is also another leading cause of ugly divorces, followed by money. Trust me, I know. I have been into counseling for many years now.

Marriage isn’t for everyone. Don’t get married because your friends are getting married or your parents and grandparents keep bugging you. You WILL ruin your life.

If you disagree about how many kids you want when married, don’t go into marriage. Don’t say, “we’ll discuss it in the future.” That is a prescription for divorce.

If you both have different levels of energy, don’t get married. A person who likes to stay home and rest when not working will have conflict with a person who wants to go tailgating, partying, etc. The bottom line line here is your choice is right and you shouldn't fret about it, but what i can tell is who the guy might become tomorrow.

Wish you the best.
