They are also very many in Asia prisons. Does that mean they own those prisons too?

When they cease weapons, it doesn't always more than 2. and when they unalive them it doesn't also more than 2. Are they being given numbers to deal with?

In which person's house will she implement these her conditions? She should start implementing them now in her father's house

At times the way these leaders talk dey fear me. We should lead fight with empty hands?
Allow the citizens to bear arms. Not disarming bandits but rushing to arrest citizens with firearms is oppression

If the government doesn't want to take drastic action against those kidnappers, let the government start paying the ransom for any kidnapped citizen

This appears to be a stubborn skin condition or (studded eczema) and may possibly be a fungal infection. An antifungal cream and, if prescribed by a healthcare professional, antifungal tablets may help treat the infection. Also, avoid wearing the same underwear for two consecutive days, and ensure your underwear is washed and dried properly before reuse.

This is one of the medicine that made stroke to be rampart among your people these days. Because they want to satisfy who even God could not satisfy

These government has really made this country a laughing stock. A country which is supposed to be on the offensive against terrorism is currently asleep while banditry and terrorism overrun it

I once lived in a face-me-I-face-you compound in Lagos. If you have never lived in one, then you have never experienced the real meaning of "community living."

In our compound, privacy was so scarce.

One morning, I woke up and found out my neighbour knew I had received my salary before I even got the bank alert. Apparently, the sound of my excitement was too loud.

The toilets were another matter entirely. We had only two toilets serving about twenty families. Every morning looked like a United Nations summit. People queued with buckets, towels, and angry faces. If you spent more than five minutes inside, somebody would knock and ask if you were renovating the toilet.

Water days were war days. Once NEPA brought light at 2 a.m. and the pumping machine came on. Suddenly, the entire compound woke up. Sleep disappeared. People who couldn't hear their alarm somehow heard the sound of water entering the tank from three blocks away.

One neighbour's wife could fight professionally. Whenever she started quarrelling with her husband, nobody needed Netflix. People would quietly bring out chairs and sit outside. Some even bought groundnuts. The quarrel usually had episodes, seasons, and reruns.

The funniest incident happened when a new tenant moved in and tried to form "big man." He told everyone, "I don't talk to neighbours."

Three days later, he locked himself out of his room wearing only shorts. The same neighbours he didn't talk to became his emergency response team.

Then there was the compound gossip department. Their office opened at 6 a.m. and closed whenever the last person slept. If you bought a new TV today, by tomorrow the story would be that you had won a contract from the Federal Government.

During football matches, everybody suddenly became coaches. Twenty people shouting different instructions at the TV while the players in Europe remained completely unaware.

And if somebody cooked soup with too much fish, the aroma would travel through all four floors. Before long, neighbours would casually visit: "Ah, my brother, I was just passing..."

Passing to where? We all knew the mission.

Despite all the wahala, nobody went hungry for long. If your gas finished, somebody would help. If you were sick, the whole compound would know before your family. If thieves entered, fifty people would appear from nowhere like Avengers.

Life in that kind of Lagos compound was noisy, stressful, and sometimes chaotic, but it was also one of the funniest experiences anybody could have. You couldn't hide, you couldn't pretend, and most importantly, you could never be bored. 😂😂😂

No wonder the security situation in Nigeria has changed. Everywhere is peaceful.

No bandits, No kidnapping. Thank you America.

Your country has been sleeping on insecurity ever since, but now that we are just coming to help you out you are here speaking in tongues

Go and ask VDM.

You know nothing about cars son.

In the automotive world, a coupe (pronounced "koo-pay" is a car body style that traditionally has:
Two doors
A fixed roof
A sportier, lower-profile design
Usually two seats or a small rear seat
Examples include:
Ford Mustang
BMW 4 Series Coupe
Mercedes-Benz C-Class Coupe.

You seems like the little one here

This is not coupe, coupe does not come with 4 doors

They will not give you the approval because the know what they are doing

That condition may be related to the nerves not functioning properly. It happened to me at a time when I was under a lot of stress. I started taking magnesium tablets, one tablet daily, and it eventually stopped.

The same thing also happened to my child. At that time, she was experiencing it quite frequently. I gave her magnesium tablets for about five days, and the problem stopped.

Note: This is a personal experience, not medical proof. Similar symptoms can have different causes, so a healthcare professional should be consulted if the problem persists or worsens.

Many Nigerians, when they are healthy, start taking all kinds of supplements and roadside herbal mixtures (“agbo”) without proper medical advice. But once they fall sick, the first place they run to is their pastor for prayers. Some pastors even pray over the phone, telling them to put salt in a cup of water and drink it. Ironically, that same pastor may even be admitted in a hospital but will still pretend otherwise while praying for them.

Then, when the illness becomes severe or life-threatening, they finally rush the person to the hospital, where doctors begin the real battle to save their life. Sadly, some patients die, while those who survive often return to church afterward to testify that it was their pastor’s prayers that saved them, ignoring the efforts of the doctors and medical treatment.

That is the mentality we still struggle with today.

These 2 that I'm seeing, after they off the camera they will zip his Trouser down and do him very well

People like you dey mistakenly fall for guys with crocodile teeth

Listen to your mother before you will regret too late. Avoid had I know

You have seen enough red flags, yet you are still pushing on. If a lady starts showing these abnormal characteristics before marriage, and you still choose to marry her, you may end up with many regrets.

I know absolutely nothing about cars and wanted to get my first car... I always loved 2013-15 Honda accord.... All my hope was on a friend who's been in car business for about 5 years now and knows his way around.

I went to where he is and we looked for a direct Belgium car, he did all the necessary test and assured me it was a good car... The person we were getting is from is also his business network of friends.

I made the whole payment without doing any test of my own because I know nothing.... We did drive test and everything and the car was okay.


On getting to my state I just decided to Google the Cars VIN number, I saw it online where it was in USA, turns out it seemed the car was used for Taxi in USA... While other than the headlight which was damaged in the VIN page it has no issue.


My concern now is the mileage... It has more than 200kmiles on it already... And via my small research such cars are bound to fail anytime.


I paid 13m for 2015 honda accord not to talk of transportation to my state which is 600-900km away from Lagos which te driver is saying he will take 700k to drive it to my state, not to talk of commission I paid my guy


My question now is was I scammed?

I've been depressed since last week

Your guy wasn’t sincere with you. You were supposed to ask questions here before you go for the car. 700k to drive a car to any part of Nigeria is a rip off

You are actually in a very strong position already.

You have:

Time

Patience

Stable electricity

Good hardware

Savings that remove desperation

A willingness to learn slowly


Those things matter more than many people realize.

Your systems are more than enough for almost every remote tech career path. Your HP ZBook Fury 16 G9 alone can handle software development, cybersecurity labs, cloud work, AI tools, video editing, virtualization, and heavy multitasking.

The bigger question is not:

> “Can my system handle tech work?”



It is:

> “Which tech path fits my personality, patience level, and income goals?”



Since you specifically want:

remote work

sustainable income

international earning potential

long-term stability

legal work from home

gradual but dependable growth


…then I would advise you to avoid hype-driven areas and focus on fields that:

1. Have global demand


2. Can be learned from home


3. Can be freelanced remotely


4. Do not require university degrees to enter


5. Still pay well years later



Here’s the truth many people won’t tell beginners:

The tech industry is now divided into:

overcrowded “everyone is doing this” fields

and practical high-income fields where skilled people are still scarce.


You should aim for the second category.

That hype is unstable.

What is valuable now is:

> combining AI tools with real technical skills.



For example:

Developers using AI become faster

Cybersecurity analysts using AI become more productive

Data analysts using AI work smarter


AI should become your assistant, not your profession.


---

What I Would Personally Recommend For YOU

Based on your tone, patience, setup, and desire for sustainability:

Strongest recommendation:

Cybersecurity + Cloud

OR

Full-Stack Development + AI tools

These combinations are powerful internationally.


---

Your Biggest Mistake Would Be…

Trying to learn:

everything at once

10 programming languages

6 career paths simultaneously


That destroys progress.


---

What You Should Do In The Next 12 Months

Phase 1 — First 2 Months

Learn computer fundamentals properly.

Topics:

How the internet works

Networking basics

Linux basics

Git/GitHub

Command line


This foundation is CRITICAL.


---

Phase 2 — Choose ONE Path Only

Do not branch around.

Pick:

software development OR

cybersecurity OR

cloud/devops OR

data analytics



---

Phase 3 — Daily Learning Routine

You need consistency more than intensity.

Even:

3 focused hours daily for 1 year can completely change your life.



---

Very Important Reality Check

Your first income may be painfully small.

Maybe:

$50

$100

$300


Do not panic.

Remote careers compound.

A skilled person earning in dollars from Nigeria can eventually build:

financial stability

location freedom

consulting income

freelance clients

remote employment

even tech businesses later


But the first stage is usually quiet and difficult.


---

Final Advice

You currently have something many people lack:

room to focus without immediate survival pressure


Use this season carefully.

Do not chase:

crypto hype

fake forex mentors

“AI cashout” schemes

copy-paste online businesses


Build a real technical skill.

A real skill may take 2 years to mature… …but it can feed you for 20 years.

menaxe:
Something happened in my house this evening that’s been bothering me, and I’d like your honest advice.

My wife went out for a girls hangout. When she came back, she didn’t notice I was in the parking lot watching.

She called the gateman over, brought out her leg, and told him to remove her shoe. He took off the first canvas shoe, then the second. She didn’t notice I was there.

After he removed the shoes, she told him to take them to the cobbler for repair.

I just watched and didn’t say anything at the time. It looked to me like she was overusing the gateman, and it didn’t sit right with me.

Later, I called her aside and told her what she did was wrong but she said she didn’t know it was wrong and didn’t see the issue. I asked her what she meant by “it’s not wrong,” and she just repeated that she didn’t know.

Now I’m confused. I don’t know if I’m overreacting, overstepping, or making too much of it.

Nairalanders, please tell me honestly — is this wrong, or am I out of line here?

Thank you.

Your wife is that gentle type that didn’t even reply you woth harsh tone. She must have been tipsy and tired when she returned, so she just wanted to free herself and use that opportunity to send someone to fix the shoe. What she did was wrong, but take it as one of her mistakes

These things are not new to Nasir El-Rufai. He has been part of a government that treated people this way before. His case is like the chickens coming home to roost.
