Family / Re: Advise, My Father Sold His House And Moved To The Village Now He Wants To Leave by ThatCEO: 3:40pm On Jan 26
AtoningBlood:
I need your input people.

3 years ago, my dad sold our house without informing anyone of us. Meanwhile, we all had things left at home, including my mum's items. He never told us where some of those things are till date.

He sold that house and went to the village, he immediately started having issues with the village people. Fight today, fight tomorrow. Everyone in the village I heard now disrespect him due to how he reveal his secrets to anyone who cares to listen.

My dad wants to leave the village to go rent an apartment in another state. His financial responsibility has been on me alone. My siblings abandoned him.

He's being nursing the idea of leaving the village and never informed me. Last november I spent almost 2 million naira fixing solar power and inverter for him in his house at the village and immediately after that he started saying he wants to leave the village..

I told my dad never to relocate to the village yet, that he should wait till his is older as he is still agile and all his friends are in the state where we lived or around. He also gets contracts once in a while so I don't bear much financial burden. But no, he failed to listen and sold our house and left.

My dad wants me to cough out another 1M to rent a house, he wants it big, 3 bedroom. I told him to look for a 2 bedroom but he said where would visitors stay.

I am not even comfortable seeing him in a rented apartment, what would my cousins say, they would mock us. I have some of them who are very naughty. He is bringing shame in us.

We have two properties and my husband wants him to come and stay in one, I vehemently disagreed because he will be controlling us, some of my extended family members will come visiting him and carry the news to the village, as well as discussing my own family and I don't want that. They contributed to what is happening to him now. Through him, some of them will come to stay and I can not start what I can't continue with. So I told my husband to dead that idea fast.

He wants to leave the village latest by February. How do I convince him to get a 2 bedroom flat? 3 bedroom would mean 3 mattresses, and everything triple. My dad doesn't like anything less. All the expenses will be on me alone. My siblings don't care.

I can't turn deaf ears to his needs. I don't want him in the village and I hate to see him in a rented apartment but that is what it is now.

I need contructive advice especially those of us with retired parents, how do you relate with their needs? I told him to think of a small trade so he won't be idle like he's been since retirement and he is talking about setting up electrical pole business, I laughed. Sebi he wan rek me. Same way he did not manage hid wealth.


I don't know how close both of you are.

But also think about all the people you don't know but you still spend for. Very easy for us to chest the problems of outsiders, but if Na our own blood, Na wahala.

Do what you can for him within your means. Everybody has a weak point. I like to make friends with weird old people, it might have influenced my advice.

Business / Re: Marketers Await Dangote Petroleum Product Price List by ThatCEO: 10:14pm On Jan 13

Business / Re: Marketers Await Dangote Petroleum Product Price List by ThatCEO: 10:11pm On Jan 13
Throwback:
Even if Dangote buys Crude Oil at international price that has been set, then his refined products should be cheaper that what we import, as importation (shipping) and port and custom charges have been totally eliminated.

Also, the cost of labour to operate his refinery in Nigeria is way cheaper than the cost of labour of the foreign refineries whose products we have been importing.

You are on point, but Dangote is too greedy for all these. I believe he will maintain the current price, perhaps his own would be slightly expensive.

If AFCON doesn't get as much viewership as Euro, I beg it doesn't cost as much either.

Drawing from my experience, this is the hierarchy of girls worldwide.

1. White girls (good for Instagram)

2. Latinos (Good if you like knacking from front)

3. Asian girls (correct children, good if you like to enter from backdoor)

4. All other African girls EXCEPT Nigerian girls, even Cotonou (Well mannered, n can take care of their own needs)

5. Nigerian girls from Benue, Jos, Kogi, Kaduna, Adamawa girls and Nigerian girls from well to do homes (decent, minimal problems)

6. Nigerian girls from poor homes or middle class
(these ones are the bottom of the barrel, dregs of the society)

Butttt, Nigerian girls have an important important advantage sha, but I will not tell them cheesy cheesy

Jobs/Vacancies / Re: 9-5 Jobs Are Not For Tall People In Nigeria by ThatCEO: 10:52am On Dec 26, 2023
Babysho:
I'm 189cm tall, fresh out NYSC and I've recently began working my first 9-5 job in Lagos and inorder to cut costs, I've had to opt for public transportation and I've found that the leg room is never enough in both those yellow buses and the BRT. I'm tired of folding like jeans in suitcase, my back won kpeme and I'm not 30 yet. It's even worse in traffic.

First of all, I don't think 189cm is that tall. Also, I'm suspecting most of these buses are shipped in from Asia where the minimum height is the lowest in the world.

Tall Nigerian working class, how do you cope?

I am 196m and I have never seen my height as an issue in public transport cos I it's just a temporary discomfort.

Neither do I start insisting on front seats. But my body is quite proportional, which means even though I am taller than you, you might have have longer legs than me.

But now, I have taken public transport like 3 times in over 2 years.

Sports / Re: UEFA, Premier League, Top Clubs Reject European Super League by ThatCEO: 8:31am On Dec 22, 2023
Well, the end of football is here.

I don't care whatever happens to the sport, football has been dieing for years now.

Kick n follow, run, cross, players with bigger muscles but smaller brains, wingers that can't dribble a single defender, short dwarf players claiming they r 9 of false 9, winning by all means at d death of entertainment. 18 n below Kids who are supposed to be sucking mother's bress, claiming they are making a senior debut.

Madrid and Barcelona should bring teams from Saudi league n Brazil. Plenty other European teams will join. Chelsea will join, if you think an American owner cares about football, dey play.

UEFA can never ban those teams or treat them differently. The EU has the strongest anti competition laws, those are the people who forced greedy Apple to adopt type C chargers.

How can teams be taking all the risks, buying players n building stadium n one rubbish UEFA will be collecting all the money n giving them peanuts as if they are kids.

This is a typical record label vs artists scenario on a gigantic scale.

Me sef no understand this Jain shape, sometimes you begin to see why married men go to find younger girls.

In most cases, Once a woman gets married in Naija, that's the day they stop taking care of themselves. The normal thing they will blame is childbirth. Ok, after childbirth, how about you enter gym, for where? Na to continue to dey chop non stop as dem don see husband house sit down.

That woman is also trouble, Baba was asking for keys, she no gree drop am.

However, Na d man we go blame 100% especially as a lawyer.

Dey will keep him for 24hours, release him, then charge him back to court. Court go give am bail, if he can't meet bail, dem go detain am for 30 days. Release am back, then sentencing.

The question is, can she survive without d husband's financial support?

There is always someone who will do the menial jobs, and for now, it is him. His situation can change for the better, and such is life.

He can look for someone his level. Banker girls usually have this hungry n condescending look about them since they know have seen too many many balance. I always see the bullshit beneath their smiles

However, he can try chatting totally platonic, n approach gradually. But if he goes full attack, she might rubbish or report him n he might lose the job. But maybe losing a cleaner job might be a blessing for him

Romance / Re: My Relationship Of 9 Months Just Crashed by ThatCEO: 3:21pm On Dec 14, 2023
Prettygirl200:
It will be easy for her to take him because she gives what she wants, what do i have, am just starting life i haven't built anything that i can suppport a man with, i did my best but it wasn't enough to him hence the comparison every now and then with different women. He already told me that the lady loves him unconditionally while my love for him was conditional he kept re affirming it whenever I ask again, for such a man there's nothing I will do that will impress him he saw who was able to give him unconditional love and all i can do is to wish them well, I couldn't have done less. I want him to be happy,and I believe he is now.

I don't think you did anything bad especially if you like below 24. Expecting so much from you is not ideal.

But if you are 27 above, and within a marriageable age, I will also be concerned if you can't pick up some bills. I have been with a least two of such above 27 who can never say I shd wear my clothe that they want to buy me a bottle of Heineken upon say dem be working class. iPhone say I don carry dem tour the almost all d city. I no come this life come slave for person daughter.

The reality of Nigeria of today is that lots of guys can no longer carry the entire weight of a woman. I understand every girl prays for the soft life, but that is mostly a vanishing dream.

But contributions is not only financial tho, however, I believe you made the right decision based on your situation.

NB, I OPENED THIS ACCOUNT FOR THIS

Hello my friends, I need you different view and please I need your in put about my wife.
We live in the states. she is in kenya for a three weeks visit with the 2 kids. She has been in kenya for about 10 days, three days ago, she called me and said she will be attending her friend's marriage ceremonial, which is taking place 600km away she did not say if the person is a male or female ( I did not ask because I was just kind of not wanting to be drawn into the discussion), she said she may not be able to come back same day, because event is starting late that she will like my brother to come with her, because she does not want to go alone. This is the first time I am hearing about this occassion, she never mentioned it before and I do not know the friend she is talking about. (or at least I am sure, because I do not really know most of friends, and she is not the friend keeping type)
I just told her that I am not ready for the discussion yet.
Please guys what are your take, I do not feel like telling her to go ( well, she may still go without my consent )
Please it may sound stupid, I just need your genuine advice

This your marriage seem to have a lot more problem than an urgent wedding attendance.

You go manage this your modern woman, Na wetin dey town be that cheesy

Family / Re: My Husband Tells Me Not To Gain Anymore Weight by ThatCEO: 12:59pm On Dec 04, 2023
Wifeoflgbo:
I was previously heavier at 90kilograms but I didn't look very big. He told me at the time that he liked it. And that he liked my body.

But recently I have lost weight. He told me I have done okay but to not gain anymore weight. But to lose more if I can. Even though I am feeling sick from lack of food. My medication is what keeps myle chubby. So I have to eat very little just to lose weight.

I said "I thought you told me you liked my fatter body?" He told me "I was just trying to be nice. I'm not a mean person. But I didn't like your old body. But this one it bust my head!" I felt really upset by this. So I asked him if he was still attracted to me back then and he said "yes" and I asked if he would leave me if I gained more weight. And he said he would never leave me if I'm skinny or fat. I asked him again why he said he didn't like my old body, and he told me he "never said that" 🙄🙄🤦 after he got super excited about my new body for another 20mins, he told me to stop bringing it up and that he needed to get some rest.

So I let it go. But part of me still feels hurt. Feels self conscious.

My husband is igbo and lives in Owerri and I am a white westerner. So maybe I am misunderstanding or the cultures are clashing here?

It's just one of the paradox of being a man, at least a Nigerian man. Two things can be right at the same time but I understand that it often leaves the females insecure.

I can draw from a personal experience. GF was chubby but had a flat tommy which I found fascinating. 6 months down the line, GF has the same body weight but tommy beginning to get bigger, an observation I raised which led to a very similar argument you had with hubby. If you love me then, does it mean you love me less now?

My response is however similar to your husband(just so you know it's not your husband making things up). Do I prefer her with flat tommy, yes. Does it mean I love her less now, absolutely not. Like I said, it's a paradox, and two things can be true at the same time. but I get that the female brain works very differently, they want assurance and very straight talks.

Verdict. He likes you before just as much as he likes you now. However, it's better you drop the weight as that's what he prefers. But eat up, you can use exercise instead to lose weigh. I will never support you guys idea of starving to lose weight.

I have done that to couples of men, sadly , today they're so useless . They foolishly sold every of their properties just to see Vanessa's pant. Men men men chai grin and today I am the Jezebel cheesy and I agreed totally.

The only thing this tells me is that you are been approached by really low quality people or at least, you choose to highlight the low quality ones. Quality has nothing to do with money or age by the way.
