Different experiences in what sense? I have suffered hardship like or more than many of them. I am not mocking or condemning them. But the fact is that many people willingly enter fire because of desperation and because of peer pressure.

So give a straight forward answer. If I was jobless and hungry and I got an employment letter from one of such schools and I came to you for advice, would you tell me to remain hungry or would you ask me to accept the job.

Nasri100:
Oh almost day here. I don’t skip breakfast. Should have eggs before work.

Since it’s about the plight of the poor and since you ain’t poor why don’t we do a random giveaway on this page right here for people in need since it’s all about the plight of the poor. It could go a long way instead of all these Cho Cho Cho.

I’d contribute N500,000 to any Nairaland mod bank account to randomly pick people.

Cc Seun or any mod let’s really do this!

Really how old are you? You are asking me to inform you of all my acts of charity.
Are you 6 years old?
Again, I would be a fool to do online give away when I know many poor and needy in my community.
But if you are ready with your N500,000, I challenge you, let's come together and do something for the poor in my community. And then you can post it on Nairaland if you want. So challenge accepted.

Nasri100:
Bro said I am bitter. You are in a country where the government is choking you everyday. I can bet you don’t even have gas or power in your home right now.

Have you had breakfast?

Kids. Just because I understand the plight of the poor doesn't make me poor.
And you are right, I haven't had breakfast. I always skip breakfast.

Nasri100:
And where on earth did I blame poor people?

Nigeria is already the second poverty capital of the world so poor is not a new world.

I only stated clearly cause I know you can’t read well that people need to start taking steps to ease the burden of their lives especially in an unprogressive country like Nigeria.

First by developing yourself financially before you start having kids and making sure you have kids you can take care of. Not bringing them into this world and subjecting them to more misery and suffering.

You talk like a child, so naive and you know nothing about life. You will learn.

Nasri100:
Learn to read and understand words as used in context before you @ me.

The world has left all these your backward Nigerian mentality and thinking behind, little man.

And wym Nairaland real profile nonsense? Have I said anything to be running from authorities? Are you r e t a r d e d ?

You are just another bitter coward with very little to offer. But I am sure you think very highly of yourself.

immortalcrown:
You are so sentimental and selfish. That's why you think that whoever says the truth benefits from it. I say the truth even when it doesn't suit my situation.

I am an orphan. My parents died poor. Nothing like inherited wealth for me. I lost interest in state universities and state polygenics because they are more corrupt than private and federal schools. I suffered for 10 years before I got an opportunity to attend a good university. But during the 10 years, people like you around me complained about what they were facing in state schools. Each time I reminded them that they knew the school system before they accepted the school, they claimed I was very privileged. A few of them that know my background could not make the same claim, but they simply said, "Not everybody thinks like you".

I graduated last year. I am still searching for a job. But I have rejected 3 jobs because of the structures of those organisations and for the fact that they don't pay well. People like you will accept the jobs, complain about the poor salary and the bad management. Yet, you will attack me when I blame you for accepting the job. This is also the mentality many of you use in marriages. You choose an incompatible partner because of societal pressure. Then, you complain in the marriage.

I understand you are talking from your painful experiences. But then others have different experiences from yours. Learn to see beyond your nose.

Nasri100:
As usual the slave mentality continues. That is why your country is a hell hole.

“See your kids go hungry”? Maybe you should have developed yourself first so your kids won’t be at the mercy of a Nigerian boss that doesn’t give a damn about your well being and continue to exploit you till you can no longer breathe.

If “child support payment” was mandatory in Nigeria, some of you wouldn’t be breeding kids like rats.

Slave.

You come out here to blame poor people and call them slaves and you think you are making sense.
If Nairaland was a profile where you made use of your real identity, would you be able to repeat the nonsense you just wrote.

Fareke:
There are “reasonable grounds” to believe Israel is committing genocide in the besieged Palestinian enclave of the Gaza Strip, according to a report issued by a United Nations-appointed expert

This is my third comment because I feel the need to completely debunk your claims about experts.
Now what do your experts say about the ethnic cleansing of christians in the middle east? Take Syria for example. It used to have 10% christian population only 14 years ago but not it has less than 2%.
Your UN experts are silent on this.
Over 40,000 Kurds have been killed in Turkey since 1984, mostly civilians still no one has accused Turkey of genocide.
So please can you explain how these are not considered genocide and war crimes ?
I believe you are seeing a larger picture now.

immortalcrown:
Those who accept to work in badly-structured organisations are part of the problem. The school didn't force the friend to work in the school.

It's clear you are a very privileged child hence you don't understand. I salut anyone who would work in a bad environment rather than stay idle or steal or prostitute.
I would rather work in such a school than see my kids go hungry.
It is the duty of our society and those in charge to establish protections for the worker.

immortalcrown:
What the school is doing is wrong.

But when you are in Rome, be a Roman. Your friend chose a school that has an exploitative management. Your friend should comply or resign.

His friend is not the problem. We need structures to protect workers and to reduce exploitation. That's what's lacking.

Fareke:
There are “reasonable grounds” to believe Israel is committing genocide in the besieged Palestinian enclave of the Gaza Strip, according to a report issued by a United Nations-appointed expert

I have already answered you in my post above but then I remembered one more thing.
One thing the COVID-19 pandemic taught us is to question the experts. Have you noticed that you and all your United Nations-appointed experts are never willing to accept questioning.
For example,
1. How is the Israeli Gaza war different from any other war?
2. What are the evidence of genocide?
3. Why these same experts have not declared the war in Yemen, Sudan and many others genocides?

Fareke:
There are “reasonable grounds” to believe Israel is committing genocide in the besieged Palestinian enclave of the Gaza Strip, according to a report issued by a United Nations-appointed expert

There are zero grounds to believe a genocide is taking place. Or have you forgotten that Israel was taken to court by South Africa and were not found guilty of genocide?
Lastly did Nigeria commit genocide in Biafra?

MAMMAN777:

Please start from 2000 years ago.

Fareke:
PEOPLE WHO JUSTIFY GENOCIDE, THEY ARE MORE NAZIS THAN THE JEWS

You are right people should not be justifying genocide. But the most wicked people are those who claim genocide where there is none. They are worse than rats and cockroaches.

Fareke:
The Israeli state has “loosened” its military rules of engagement, essentially giving its soldiers the green light to kill anyone they encounter inside the Gaza Strip as part of their ground operations. Israeli politicians and soldiers are talking openly about turning Gaza into dust, eliminating Palestinians, and imagining Israeli settlers living on land that used to be called Gaza. Palestinians are being deliberately deprived of all the basic necessities for life, including food, water, shelter and medical care. Bombs from the air are indiscriminately killing and maiming Palestinians. Palestinians are being encouraged to leave their lands and homes in northern Gaza and head towards the south – Israel clearly wants to colonise northern Gaza and turn it into a security or military zone, permanently expelling the Palestinians who currently live there.

So what?

Fash20:
Define Terrorism

Use a dictionary stop being lazy.

Fash20:
Lol. This man is insane. How can a sane human being type this kind of crap

To you, everyone opposing terrorism is insane.

God1000:
continue supporting massacre, I don't blame you though

Continue supporting terrorism.

God1000:
I'm happy ICC is making moves to issue warrant of arrest on this warmonger and his cabinet members for commiting war crimes.


Invading Rafah will only lead to more civilian deaths and displacement

You read the thread about religious killings in your own country but kept silent. Now you are the first to comment when it comes to another country. What do we call people like you who neglect their own but profess love for outsiders?

One fool will wake up and state fighting for Gaza when worse is going on in his land.

First of all, the modern boyfriend-girlfriend romantic relationship thing is not in God's original Will, which explains why it is one of the major contributors to the high increase in heartaches and emotional headaches prevalent amongst many young people. As far as getting a partner is concerned, this is what to follow:

The Will of God is that when a man (not a boy) has attained a certain stature where marriage can be embraced, (after such a man has discovered his identity and purpose on earth), He (God) should be approached to provide a woman (not a girl) who will become his wife. After God has provided the woman, prior to marriage, the couple embarks on what we call courtship, where they learn to know more about themselves (in an attempt to make necessary adjustments before they tie the knot), and must not defile the marriage bed during the courting period (that is, must not indulge in premarital sex).

Now, let's say you have been ignorant of this, and due to whatever reason (loneliness, peer pressure, etc) you now have a boyfriend or girlfriend who is insisting that you start having sex when not being married. Well, that is proof that you should discard such a person since it is obvious they are only after your body and their lustful immediate gratification, and they don't really love you as you think.

It is important to not allow anyone to make you sin against God for whatever reason, irrespective of how hard they are trying to make you feel they love you (they don't really love you if they are trying to make you rebel against God your Source).

God's perfect Will as far as sexual pleasure is concerned is that all forms of sexual pleasure should only be shared between a married man and his female wife inside the safe confines of their marriage institution, with no other party involved.


To avoid the emotional heartaches and headaches a lot of young people experience due to their romantic entanglements with a member of the opposite gender, the best path to take is to do things God's way. When you are set for a relationship with a member of the opposite gender, make sure you are going into it with marriage in view, and both of you must agree not to do things meant for married couples alone - such as sex. If the person won't agree with you, it shows they don't really love you in the first place, and you don't have a place in their longterm plans. They only planned to suck you dry before dumping you and moving to the next victim.


You are a child of God (whether you currently have a relationship with Him or not), not a mere sex tool. Before you were born God has demonstrated His love for you by coming in the Person of Jesus Christ to die for your sins (you were born into sin) and redeemed you to Himself. He wants an intimate relationship with you that is eternal in nature, and you will be empowered with the Holy Ghost to live above corruption for all of eternity.

Jesus loves you.

Everyone with his own believes.

Saudi Arabia has more interest in doing business with Israel than in protecting Gaza.

theredaddy:
educating you was fun

Your ignorance was not funny to me and your dishonesty was a shame. Anyway have a great life.

theredaddy:
Don't patronize me bro ! i asked you very simple question that could have thrown more light into whatever the arguement is about

Whether america is the most sorted currency in the world or not, Buying dollar to hoard or resell is not the same as Buying security bonds.

Now you said the should 1st fix the naira,
simple analog.. if i am cleaning up the house and my children are following behind with mud in their hands rubbing it on the floor & walls won't it be a endless cycle But imagine as i am cleaning my children join with mopper to wipe behind me .. common sense

You can never see a chinese, british or japanese buying dollar to keep at home or resell ... these is an indication Nigerians are sick

No need to continue this discussion. Have fun

theredaddy:
I will try to make to be as Brief as possible,

Us securities bond is among the safest investments on earth, its the most sorted currency in the world
Not just Uk, even china buy US bond as a long term investment .. emphasis on "investment"

My standing POV is, there is a disparity between what Nigerians do with dollar and what Uk/China as a country do with dollar ...

Do you agree ??

Lets be clear what the arguement it, buying to hoard dollar is not the same as buying US bonds .. True or false

So you know the dollar is the most sort after currency in the world so why did you write all those nonsense in the first place if your goal was not to deceive?
It's not like you have any proof that Nigerians seek the dollar more then people from other countries but let's say you are right, are their currencies as unstable as ours? Is it wise to save in an unstable currency?
Please stop blaming Nigerians. Your government has turned your currency to shit yet you don't want the people to seek out alternatives. I think it's evil of you to intentionally advise people to invest in a dying currency.
When your government fixes the naira, no would would need to be told to invest in Naira.
One more thing, buying to hoard dollar is done for the very same reason people buy US bonds. It's done because you trust the dollar and the US economy. And it's both a savings and an investment. It's a much better way to protect your savings that leaving it as Naira.
Are you saying that you prefer Nigerians to buy dollar bonds rather than hoarding dollar? Would this have a different impact on the economy?

2tpick:
Abeg free that guy. U are wasting your time engaging him.

theredaddy is just another out of school statistics. Unfortunately he has a phone and an internet connection.

theredaddy:
The links you provided only point out the fact that these countries are great earners of dollars, China for instance is the number one country with high trade surplus which translates to more dollar in reserves

Even if your qualification is waec, i expect you know there is a disparity between Earnings in dollar vs Saving in the Dollar

Earning in dollar entails inflow of revenue from int'l trade while,
Saving in dollar entails convert local currency to dollar as store of value which as severe consequences on the economic and her currency

So i will ask one more time, are the chinese, british and japanese converting there local currency to dollar to "Save" or as Store value

You have a reading problem. These countries are the greatest buyers of dollars. Japan does not have a trade surplus.
The UK has a trade deficit yet it holds over 700 billion of US securities.
Your education has a long way to go.
I sent you a link that shows you countries buying US bonds.
What do you think it means to buy US bond if not converting your currency to dollars or do you think US bonds are sold in Naira?
Here is the report on Japan's trade deficit yet it is the biggest holder of US bonds.
Really your education has a long way to go.
TOKYO (AP) — Japan recorded a trade deficit for the third straight fiscal year as the costs of energy and other imports rose and the yen remained weak. The deficit was 5.89 trillion yen ($38 billion) for the fiscal year that ended in March, according to Finance Ministry data released Wednesday.Apr 16, 2024

theredaddy:
Can you back that up with stats/facts ... before i teach you what you don't know

You have nothing to teach.

China alone has over a trillion dollars

theredaddy:
Is that what a chinese, british or American will do, over time we keep saying it here we are our very own Problem ...

Are we the only country with unstable naira ... you go about encouraging people to save there money in dollar then you jump out nd claim Govt is the problem, are you not even worst than the govt

don't you understand speculations nd demand to "hoard" is what gives the naira a free fall

Keep saying nonsense.
The Chinese, British and the people of Japan have more dollar savings than any other nation.
It takes a fool to save his money in an unstable currency when he can save it in dollars.
Again, the average Nigerian is not to blame for your destroyed currency, please blame the mad man you voted for not me.
It's either you are just being dishonest or you are naive and ignorant.
Let me put it this way, if you have a million dollars right now, can you honestly tell me that you will covert it and save it as Naira?
Also, ask yourself, why does the Nigerian gov save in dollars?

A person who decides to ignore situational awareness and cannot read the room...will soon die a horrible death or be enslaved 21st century style.
Keep on supporting either the Jew or the Arab... don't decide to rebuild Africa o!

The world is coming again to take Africa by force and not by proxy anymore.

But you choose slavery when you allow yourself to be burdened by what others think about you.
And rebuilding Africa has nothing to do with your support of Jews or Arabs. They are not mutually exclusive

palel:
I recently saw a friend who just got a master's degree from a university in the UK, even though he never went to a university in Nigeria. When I asked him how he did it, he said he paid a lot of money for the degree. He didn't have to take any entrance exams like GRE, IELTS, or GMAT. He said it's common for people to do this, and UK schools care more about the money and the workforce Nigerians bring. I was really shocked and didn't know what to say. I feel like Nigeria is better because it's hard to get into Nigerian universities, especially Federal ones, without passing JAMB. Overall, I'm very disappointed in the UK government.

You are only used to nonsense.
