None that I know of.

All right. Thank you.

You can learn bash scripting, C, a bit of Linux system administration, C++, python, Golang, Perl, PHP, Lua etc. Download termux and learn. You can even learn those bogus overbloated frameworks like Django.

Thank you so much.

Don’t allow anyone pressure you into tech if you don’t have the passion for it.

Personally what I do is encourage people to have soft skills that can make them work in the remote space. The secret is to earn in FCY.

$10/hr for a full-time job would automatically make you a millionaire in Naira.

Don’t go and start what you can’t finish o.

Hi Poco!
Please what tech skill can I learn with a smartphone, because getting a laptop is not so feasible for me as I am still a struggling student.
Please an answer will be well appreciated. Thank you!

The splendour and precision put into this wedding planning reminds me a lot of that of Ehi Ogbebor and Ken Bramor's.

4months and 12 bakers for one wedding cake is attention to the wrong details because those who ate it have already excreted it and forgotten what it tasted like.
But we will NEVER forget the effort put into this wedding if it ever goes South.

Some of us who discreetly got married without cakes and shared plastic hand-fans as souvenirs are still happily married with plenty descendants but I know some who made sure their wedding was BAAD gan and the talk of the town for months who still have no offspring to show for it and those who gifted cars as wedding souvenirs who were lucky to have a child but don't have that marriage anymore.

I also know some who flew to Dubai for their wedding and few years afterwards, their jumpy marriage made the same person almost jump off 3rd Mainland bridge.

We will be here to see how the show of vanity turns out because Ndigbo have a famous saying that says, "A gbacha oso, a guo mile".

Oh please!
Do not involve childless couples in these, it's no fault of theirs.
That someone had a flamboyant wedding is not guarantee that the marriage would be or would not be successful. Equally a low key wedding doesn't guarantee the success and failure of any marriage.

If the couple can afford it without breaking a sweat, then, it's no one's business.

Op

Even though she might be wrong by involving your sister without your consent; you should have seen that her actions were because she cares for you.

You shouldn't have scolded her, her actions were very harmless. You should have passed your dislike for her actions in a better way like - " babe, I appreciate your concern, but please next time, do not do something like that without my permission ". Case solved! And believe me, she would have apologized.

This is too trivial to earn a scold.

And to think you would have slapped her, just as someone asked you to, here, speak volumes of your personality.

You equally called her stupid, because she's in love with you.

All I can tell you is may whatever you believe in, have mercy on you.

Work on your personality, sir!

I'm glad to read this!

Marriage has been painted so badly nowadays. One thing we fail to understand is that there are so many people with happy marriages or in the least, not so bad marriages. But as we all know, bad news gets more publicity and that is why it is as though marriages, these days do not work out.

All these people saying Tacha has been topping back to back should please take a chill pill. Tacha has been up for eviction 4 times now and Mike 3 times...it's no difference. And the both of them has topped each other with less than 1%. It's a great feat for both biko...it's not easy, it's not as if Mike hasn't been up severally too. And for those saying Ike and Mercy fans aided his topping today, keep on deceiving yourself. Mike is loved, forget all the bashing here on NL and you can't help but love him either.

He failed the first time by being 3rd with less than 1% ooo but now he's just topped. I admire his fans, they stopped bragging and got to work and that is very commendable... I pray they keep up with this pace though.

Tacha is a good person, but I don't won't either her or Mercy to win. It will send bad impression to teenage and young girls that you'll have to be indecent or use their body as a trademark to be popular or be a celebrity. I prefer Mike ,Seyi or any other person at all to win.

Guys calm down biko... Mike this, Mike that, Ike did this , Ike did that. No one is perfect please. I don't think you guys should be sweating over Mike being a gossip or not because from what I've seen so far, they all gossip, no one is excluded,no single person. Is not as if you guys are not gossips too. Any little discussion is termed gossip by you guys whether good or bad. Take it easy biko


By the way, I'm no team. Just stating my observation.

Naijaguy123:
An average Yoruba in Lagos see Jimi agbaje as candidate of the Igbo . A victory for agbaje in Lagos is a victory for the Igbo. It means we will have not one but few Igbo commissioners in Lagos, it means when I go to a local government headquarter in Lagos I'll be greeted good morning in Igbo but I want my culture to be promoted etc.

In the east, indigenes of Abia are not allowed into Enugu civil service, indigenes of ebonyi are not allowed to work in Anambra.

Go to GRA in the east as a Yoruba man and try to buy a land, more likely they won't sell you one. Someone told me if you open a shop in the east, the chance of Igbo patronising you is zero. When they greet you in Igbo and you respond in English or Yoruba, they simply walk away saying this one is not oyi Igbo.

You're promoting stupid hear says, my aunt is Anambra but works in Ebonyi civil service. Like who feeds you with this type of information. Igbos sell lands to other tribes too. Then someone told you if you open a shop there, they won't patronize you, tell me who told you that. People be making things up to paint some people black with no gains to make.

Please stop this tribal war, it's so unnecessary.

He came to complain at the human rights radio office but abused a human's right to live, one of the essential human rights. Is this not ironical?

To me, there's nothing wrong with it.

Made my first million at 25,doing dropshipping of mobile phones from aliexpress,my biggest hurdle at first was how I could make payments and how i could get lots of clients.

Please, how did you get through the challenge? How did you get lots of clients? I mini import ladies wigs. It is also a big challenge for me. Please reply me. Thanks.

Forget all talks. Depression is actually real; people who have never experienced depression or haven't had anyone close to them experience it,are the ones talking down on it. Don't always condemn people who commit suicide, it takes a whole lot of courage and strength to kill one self. Yes,suicide is bad, but it takes anything far form cowardice to commit it.

I couldn't even make out a single thing from what she wrote there.

Meanwhile, their ynash problem, their business. My business is to stay away from their businesses.

But What have they achieved in their almost 4 years of rule?

But, 38 and 41 are close enough though. Speaking of lies- definitely Osibanjo lied about 90% importation of rice

It is only a blind man that will ask if Nigeria is retrogressing or not? The answer is evident!

But oga Fashola, this wasn't what you told us in 2015 oo. Why the sudden turn around?

bettercreature:
Leaving your husband because he cheats make no sense especially when you have 3 kids already
This is no America or Canada
All men cheats
Even the broke ones cheats let alone those that has money

It's taken a lot of self discipline on my part not to insult you. Can you imagine the mentality you have? Justifying cheating for the male folks! I should risk the chances of contacting STDs just because I want to stay married, where is that done? Isn't it stupidity? But if it's a female who's done this; all hell will break loose.

All of a sudden Peter Obi, the most honest and prudent Governor Nigeria ever produced

So Jonathan was not honest?

Stop trying to digress the topic. He's been tested and trusted. It's indisputable!

Why are they afraid of Peter One? Why wasn't he investigated prior to this time? Why are they trying by all means to fault him? He's been proved prudent and resourceful. So what are their problems. Don't we still have the right to campaign peacefully in a democratic state. Wait! Is Nigeria a democratic state in the process? Is the Effc anti PDP. I can't just understand this. But, it's no problem; he's free from all corruptive cases

Run away na... Case closed!
If you feel like it, then do it and don't tell us. Inukwa!

Can you imagine El-rufai say there are no thugs in the APC

Pathetic! Is rotting in jail better? I've always advised people with anger issues to walk away when it starts accumulating. Though I don't know the reason he killed her. And to make matters worse, he buried her inside his room? Ah! Where is humanity heading?

Be careful what you wish for. I have seen ladies do things to make oil workers give them 90% of their salaries each month. That poor and witty wey dey sweet u go put u for trouble

No troubles bro! My sisters are wise too and we ain't so rich, but they are doing well. They didn't put anyone in trouble. That you've seen and heard terrible experiences doesn't make everyone ,same.

jorion:


The fact that you are trying to compare unions of old to the ones these present groups of desperados are into only proves that you don't understand millennia ladies. The problem usually starts when your wealth begins to wane, or when she sees wives of your colleagues driving brand new cars etc. That is when you will know that money is the most important criteria in marriage.

Money is not: peace of mind is. Yes, girls being after money has been the order of the day recently, but that doesn't mean everyone is like that. There are still some good ones left. OK, I have a question for you.

What if a man's source of income starts dwindling even
when he's married to a girl from a well-to-do home? Do you think she would be able to cope? It all depends on personality! And not from being from a rich or poor home. Please let's change our mindset, poverty or no poverty won't change who we truly are.

Boss13:


They have to know. That’s why I support your opinion 100%. I never married from a poor background and it was not by chance or love. I swore never to do it because I have seen the finances of good men go under. I have also swore never to give birth like they give award for the number of children one has. When I was a bachelor, I dated - rich gals, poor gals - and there are not different. In fact the poor ones have too much problems and were so demanding financially. You can’t blame them. Imagine playing the role of a lover and a father at the same time. Why take up the role of a girl’s parents? It is this stupid ignorance thinking that has put many Nigerian men in financial bondage.

Women are smarter than men when it comes to picking their spouse. Many men don’t ask what they intend to get from their marriage. If you do the maths - when two people come together and the family income does not change upward, that’s a fall in financial capability and that means there is a net decrease or demerit for that man after getting married. Add family wahala to that and kids - that man is destined to struggle. No be witch or village people Na who you marry.

I wanted to use a real life experience to exemplify this line of thought but out of respect for the people concerned, I decided other wise.

NEVER MARRY A POOR GIRL FOR YOUR OWN GOOD. DONT SAVE ANYONE OTHER THAN YOURSELF

It's no one's fault to be poor. You guys should stop making this a priority. Have you met a poor girl who is very witty, ambitious and dexterous. There are so many of them out there, but they don't have the means.
The ultimate thing is finding a good person, who is willing to build and has good managerial skills too. You might find it among the rich or poor, but just don't pitch your search on the rich alone. A witty poor girl can turn wealthy if given the means. A wise woman whether rich or poor should know when her husband's finances are going low as a result of her family's expenses and should be able to make her family understand that.

Riches do not last forever, you may think someone is beyond ever being poor; but this is life and anything can happen at any time. You're not married yet, and that is why you have no idea.Being from a poor home
Should be the least of considerations to make. Marriage encompasses more than it. I don't expect you to understand, but I'm sure, with time; you will.

GodisGood4321:
For a start, I’m not a gold digger nor am mine looking for someone to take care of my bills.

A little bit about myself. I’m 32 and I’m from a humble background and by the grace of God, my hustle don begins to pay. I'm a graduate and works in a popular oil and gas firm with a monthly take-home of seven-digit. But base on the fact that I'm from a humble background and God don give me breakthrough, I'm supporting my families (siblings) and sometimes friends who are still hustling to establish themselves.

So I am a bit careful to date a lady who is the supporting member of her family as well, otherwise, support responsibilities may fall back on me as the man if one marries such lady. And no matter how much one think he earns, too many dependents can weary one progress and a tree can't make a forest. This engineer my desire to marry a girl from a well-to-do family, even if she doesn't earn much, but her family shouldn't be a liability. I have a reservation of being the ‘look-up-to’ person in my family and as well the ‘look-up-to’ person in a wife family as well. While one may be grateful to God for being able to be looked up to, the pressure of demand/expectation may be overwhelming and could slow one’s progress and one runs the risk of not having who to run to when his own need arises because everyone around has always looked up to you.

But the challenge is to see and get a girl from a well-to-do family is hard. Is either I can't find any or the few I meet always an attitude issue and are hardly submissive. Meanwhile, I have seen decent ladies from a humble background who are equally making some progress in their own right, but i lost interest when I get to know of their family background because of my biased to marry from a well-to-do family. Besides the benefit of not having many dependents by marrying from a well-to-do family, I covert the benefit of been related to in-laws who may have some sort of relevance and influence.

I have this feeling I am settling for less than I originally desired when I see decent ladies but they are from a humble background that I do not advance things with them.

Please, I want to know if this my obsession of marrying from a well-to-do family is reasonable or I am taking it overboard. I just want to hear people opinions about my line of thought and be sure I am still in touch with reality and not just be idealism.

I understand you considerably, and no! You are not a gold digger. But you see, marriage is beyond financial status. You're looking for a girl from a well to do family; but have you ever thought of how this family will treat and respect you?Have you wondered how much influence the family has on her: would it be a positive or a negative influence? Have you thought about their expectations of you as a son in-law of an affluent family? Have you ever wondered how much she spends or how extravagant she is? Come on! She's from a rich home, she has class , she would love to maintain her standard. I'm not saying there ain't girls that are from well to do homes who are responsible and have good families too, but these are things you should put into consideration too.

Marriage is beyond all these, this shouldn't be paramount. Peace of mind, understanding and tolerance is! I'll give a little illustration using my family.
We're 7 from my mum( 4 girls), we're not poor , we can take care of our basic needs. My elder sisters got married to rich/very comfortable men, but for once my family has never asked for their assistance no matter how pressing the needs are even when my dad was terribly sick, my parents just refused to ask for money. They'll always tell us -" what if they weren't rich ?what if your sisters are not married ?" They only give us at will; and frequently, people will always ask her if her in-laws are stingy, in a sly manner.

When you get married, you'll understand better
