If you using solar panel to charge., 400 to 500w total panel should do.

There have been reports of dead Ukrainian army officially confirmed by the authorities. What’s your point?
My Point is filter through all this propaganda, keep open mind.
Nobody like Russia invasion of Ukraine sovereignty, which they claimed it's necessary. They tried to negotiate it out among themselves (Russia & Ukraine) but it didn't workout, they are both fighting for their country future. They are both right and they are both wrong, just like the 6 blind men

Common, have you observed the report we have been getting so far?
We only get the bad report of Russia and get the good report of Ukraine. That's bad reporting! Why are we not getting the number of dead Ukrainian soldiers are civilians the only people working in a military installations or facilities Russian are bombing?

Hi guys

Please i have a question, the way i am seeing EFCC and ICPC confiscating corrupt politicians and government workers assets, what if ones money is not from stealing public funds?

I am still young and have this big dream of becoming rich, and i know with government job you will never be rich( i mean rich).

So what if i start business and it become successful such that i have assets everywhere, will EFCC still seize those assets thinking i got them by stealing public funds, or what did Nigerian law says?

You are a good writer. I love your write up.

If Russia survive the sanctions that have been imposed and the ones that are yet to be imposed. The US & it's allies will loose the economic power, they have over Russia totally. They want to fire their last bullet and if Russia survive it. It will be a loss for the US & it's allies.

They need to think carefully before firing that last bullet.

Hello folks.

I need serious and urgent help on what to do PLEASE.

My mother has been tormenting us all round. THINGS HAVE GONE SO BAD THAT I OWE DEEPLY COS MY WORK HAS STOPPED ENTERING, MANY MISFORTUNES, ACCIDENTS ETC. She attacks my wife and children in their dreams ALMOST ON DAILY BASIS. Also attacks my brother's wife and his children in their dreams OFTEN.

Recently, one of my daughters has been having serious attacks from my mother, venturing to initiate her into the witchcraft world IN A WELL ORGANIZED WITCHCRAFT CONGREGATION (one that we often watch in movies).

This has caused serious concerns to me and my brother. Should we confront our mother physically?

What should we do as parents please?

EducationRe: The Beautiful Life Of Nigerian University Lecturers That You Do Not Know About. by talk2hb1(m): 10:01pm On Feb 21, 2022
addexx:
About 2 weeks ago, a friend visited me in my office and while we were discussing, he said he will love to be a lecturer. He is currently working in a good FG establishment with a relatively OK salary. He has worked there for about 10 years. I don't know what his salary is, but I asked him about the starting salary for a graduate and he said it's about N220,000 per month. I was like wow! That's not a bad monthly salary for a starter and he said yeah. Then, I told him that coming to academics is not a bad idea but that as a friend, he needs to know a bit about it before making a decision.

So, I told him that if he should leave that job for a university lecturing job, and since he has got no MSc degree yet, he will be employed as a Graduate Assistant (GA) with a starting salary of about N95,000 per month. Is he prepared to drop from close to N300,000 to N95,000? He was like that is unbelievable, you are underpaid. And I said that is not all. While you had been getting a promotion after a specified period in your organisation, in the university you won't be promoted after employment till you get a Master's degree.

I continued. As a GA you will have to enrol in a master's program. There is no research grant for staff in training, so you may have to save your salary or take a loan to do the MSc research. As staff in training, you are expected to finish within 3 years. Whenever you are done, you will be upgraded to Assistant Lecturer to earn about N118,270 per month.

As Assistant Lecturer, you enrol for a PhD. There is still no PhD research grant except you are lucky to get a TETFund scholarship. If you aren't lucky, you save part of your salary for the PhD research which you are expected to finish within 5 years. It could take a longer time.

3 years later you are expected to have published 1 journal paper or gone to conferences to present 2 papers from the research you did with your salary to be qualified for promotion. If you don't have that, the years you have taught do not matter, you will have to wait until you meet the said requirement. If you succeeded, you will be promoted to the rank of Lecturer II with a starting salary of about N129,724 per month.

3 years later you are expected to have published 3 journal papers with conference papers from the research you did with your salary to be qualified for promotion to Lecturer I. If you don't have that, you will have to wait until you meet the requirement irrespective of the years you have taught. If you succeeded, you will get a salary of close to N160,809 per month as Lecturer I.

The next promotion after another 3 years is to the rank of Senior Lecturer. To qualify for this rank, you must have obtained your PhD with at least 6 journal papers in recognised journals and 4 conference papers. Without meeting the waiting period, PhD, and the publication requirement, you won't be promoted no matter the number of years and number of students you have taught. Note that you will do the research with your personal fund and pay for the publication with your personal fund. As a senior lecturer, you will have a salary of N222,229 per month. That is the salary of a starter in your organisation in same Nigeria.

The promotion to the rank of Reader (Associate Professor) will come after 3 years and after meeting the research and publication requirements of 10 journal papers and 5 conference papers, PG supervision, etc. That earns you a salary of N277,179 per month. Then you become a Professor 3 years later after meeting its own research and publications requirement 15 journal papers and 7 conference papers, PhD supervision, etc., to earn
a salary of N332,833 per month.

With the increasing number of students, loads of script to mark, teaching does not count for promotion but the output from the research that is not provided for. You save your salary to earn a promotion. No book grant, you buy books for yourself with your salary.

Nigerian public University lecturers are perhaps the only workers that use their salary to work to achieve the criteria set for their promotion.

I told him that if he should join the academics now, it will take him the next 12 years at least, to become a Senior Lecturer to earn the salary of a starter in his present organisation. And that since FG thinks the lecturers deserve no pay rise, it will take him the next 15 years of serious academic and research output to earn his present salary in his present organisation. Meanwhile, he will have to fund all that with his salary for that 15 years.

I asked if he still want to be a lecturer and he was mute. He was like this is bad and not fair. Then I said, when you see us in class teaching with all smiles and doing our best, it is not because we have a good salary and working conditions, but because we love the job and try to manage the little we are receiving to get the job done.

This is the life of the academic that you do not know. Their life may look glittering but it is not gold.

The poor welfare and work environment is telling on the quality of the output from the university. Some lecturers, especially the younger ones, are already getting pissed off and leaving or planning to leave. So, how long can we sustain this? Everyone keeps saying every lecturer should have a side hustle and stop complaining. That will be the worst thing to happen to Nigerian universities. Some of our colleagues with side hustle just come to teach and leave to manage their side hustle. You can ask the students the impact of such a lecturer on them. You don't want to have a university where lecturers just come to teach and leave for their side hustle. A university is not designed that way.

President Buhari, Adamu Adamu, Nasiru El-Rufai in 2013/2014 gave a detailed explanation on the several reasons why ASUU is always declaring strike actions. Adamu Adamu's articles on why ASUU is always on strike were something else. As a matter of fact, I have never seen a comprehensive article like El-Rufai's write-up in October 2013 that he titled: For those who no do not understand "why ASUU is on strike". Go back and read their words and listen to their videos and stop behaving like you need a thinking cap.

ASUU fight is for the survival of the system where you want your child to come for a degree program. We have helped the state governors to destroy public primary and secondary education. You have a choice to take side with the FG towards the destruction of the remnant of the education system or join the fight to save the system. The choice is all yours.

RomanceRe: My Girlfriend & her Wahala by talk2hb1(m): 7:44am On Feb 21, 2022
CandyOps:
This story is funny sha.. but I'll be brief.

So I met my current babe 4 months ago. She's cute and fine asf. Let's just say she's a spec

The only issue we have is she's homeless and broke and I'm not looking at settling down at the moment. To put it mildly, we like to say she's having accomodation issues.

I'm not so sure but I think she came from the east to Lagos with a guy she wanted to marry but it didn't work out. So she left the guy's house and have been working sales-girl jobs that offer accomodation alongside.

She quit her job and had to vacate the room.
Now she wants to keep her luggage in my place while she figures out herself. The thing is, there's no time limit on how long it'll take her to find a place because she's short on cash and I don't have spare cash to help her rent a room with.

Now here's the 2nd problem,

She has always told me from Day 1 that she's looking for a man to get married to. And she don't believe she is with me. She says I'm not serious. She says it indirectly at times and I think it's because her Ex bought her a car and opened a store for her while they were together.

She's a great person and someone I would have loved to settle with if I was financially capable.

She moved in and stayed with me for 2 weeks sometimes last December when she had issues with her female friend where she was squatting but I had to send her packing because she was rationing the sex with me.

She will give me today and remind me we're not married the next time. We always have a fight about that because I don't like to be sex-starved.

I mean, I'm providing almost everything for her. She has no reason to.

She left my place to her male friend's place who had 2 rooms and stay alone but she had to leave the guy because she said he was too possessive. And the guy was ready to settle down I think.

Luckily for her, she got accomodation at her new job but the place is not manageable. Too much mosquitoes. No fan and no mattress.

She even begged me to stop calling her so she can move on but we couldn't stay apart from each other.

Once again, she had to quit the job.

Now she is looking for where to lay head while she finds an accomodation. She got a new job too 45k. It's poor and she can't get a house with that salary in Lagos.

I stay in a mini flat so no spare rooms. Besides, I don't want a repeat of what happened the last time when she had to pack out of my house angrily and created a scene.

I believe she already lost that privilege.

I found a place for her to keep her luggage while she sleeps in my place but she's feeling bad because I didn't let her to keep it in my place. So she said we should move on..

As we speak, she has refused to come into the room. She insists on sleeping in the sitting room because she's trying to break things off with me and wants to cut off some things that will spring up more emotions.

I understand but it's tiring. I just tire! huh

Me, I don't want to keep someone in my house who's homeless. I mean, it's just like marriage na

Besides, she no de even give me BJ she say she will only do that when married. She doesn't have relatives in Lagos and don't want to go back to the East.

I just weak!
My guys no dey even make matter any better by calling her 'our wife' anytime she's around.

I never buy car yet and my business is young. This is my 3rd year in Lagos. My buisness revenue is roughly around 2.5 million monthly (net) not enough to buy a car pay rent and stay afloat

How do I end this? and still be friends with her?

Is any girl looking for a female roommate?
Location- Okota, Lagos?
Budget- 100k

The second your life is on its way to greatness after years of pain and depression then all of a sudden any female you encounter starts smiling at you ? Is this like a female trap to get you to lose your focus on your goals? This thing is like a magic trick all girls do, there is no single guy in this world who doesn’t experience this except he’s still trying to make ends meet then these females just ignore you, but the minute you find that new source of big bags that you know will make you wealthy all of a sudden every female is attracted to you? Why do they do this?
