Health › Re: Help! I Got Bitten By A Local Dog by TheGift:
You shouldn’t be waiting for the dog to die so that your worry can top. You should stop worrying by acting.

The first thing you should do is go to a proper hospital preferably within the first 6 -8 hours.

I was recently bitten by my neighbors dog. I know their dogs are aje butters, well taken care of and I confirmed that it was vaccinated.

Still , I went to the hospital.

At the Hospital, you can have the wound properly inspected, properly dressed and you can get the recommended drugs. In my case I didn’t hVe to take rabies injection because I confirmed the dog was vaccinated. But I still took tetanus injections and two antibiotics were recommended.

Please don’t treat it lightly. Don’t play with anything that has to do with bites as they have high rates of infect-ability, especially dog bites.

Nigerians dont like going to the hospital. Sometimes I think it’s the money. But even if I am broke , I still go to the hospital- at least to have a good sense of what I am dealing with.

As someone said above, 15k is not worth losing your life over.

I will never forget a report about a foreign media that states Nigerian kids don dey use to bullying... The thread even made front page, and everybody was talking about how rugged Nigerians are because they can take been bullied and come out stronger grin

I doubt anyone spoke against bullying on the thread, no one saw it as a bad thing, but because of the boy that died in Dowen, everybody don suddenly see bullying as a bad thing grin

Nigerians are just one kin funny people grin
True talk.

One reason many of those folks didn’t condemn bullying is because they also bullied others.

UncleAyo:
Your writeup is more specious than the video itself.

Keep on keeping on at the defending of the indefensible. I pray you or your family member will not experience the effect of bandit or terrorist attack.

Let me ask you.

# Why is the government trying to kill sunday igboho for his campaign against bandits? (The government people invaded his house at midnight, kill almost all the occupant at sight and destroy his properties)

# Why did the government vigorously attack the creation of Amotekun (The Southwest Security Network) created to curtail the activities of bandits in the south west Nigeria?

# Why was Gumi not invited by DSS over his romance with bandits but Obadiah Mailafia was, for his comment against them?

# Why did the government sent soldiers to Lekki to shoot at protesters?

# Why is the government in hurry to label terrorists as 'repentant' and ready to fly them around, pay them and release them back into the public without due process? People with little offence are rottening in jail waiting for justice while known terrorist are getting honored by the government.


Pictures below are of terrorists rebranded by Nigeria government as "repentant", put on payroll and set free without any trial.


I can't say whether the video is true or not, but the present government has shown us beyond resonable doubt whose side they belong in fight against bandits.
Where in the post did you hear them defending the indefensible Buhari government?

Just because you want the story to be true to advance your narrative and hasty conclusion.

You have already listed enough “atrocities”. You don’t need another one to buttress your point. Especially not a fake one.

Fake news contributes to insecurity!

Travel › Re: Emirates Cancels All Flights To Nigeria In Retaliation To FG Once A Week Flight by TheGift: 10:20pm On Dec 10, 2021
MrMaestro:
The Nigerian government has responded to the UAEs ban on multiple flights to the UAE from Nigeria’s Air Peace. As a result, the government has also rescinded the previous approval of 21 flights to Nigeria weekly (Abuja and Lagos), down to once per week. Likely due to the fact that Air Peace has been a beacon for Nigeria and Nigerian business, especially after the xenophobic issues in South Africa. Wonderful development. Nigeria protecting those that also are protecting Nigerians. Let this be a lesson that when we stand together we can be a global force to be reckoned with.

What you call free is not really free , there is a price you pay that you re not aware of.
Some of it is actually free bro. It’s a penetration strategy. Some people will go beyond free to fee based on added value and features.

Personally I offer freebies and use freemium as a business strategy and it works.

What is true is that someone is always paying for it, even if it’s free for you. Some of us just see it as marketing costs.

Cloud technology is not free. You have to pay for the service depending on how large your computational work is.

Also internet service is required for cloud computing.

I don't know for programmers, when it comes to engineering simulations cloud technology is not feasible in a developing country like Nigeria with high internet service charges.

I prefer to have my own work station.
Buying physical storage or hardware can be expensive. Cloud storage is cheaper per GB than using external drives.

Cloud is also generally more secure from virus attacks and loss.

If you’re speaking of your internet costs, that is another issue.

WillyWonda1:
Right now I don’t even know what to think anymore.

My girlfriend of 2 years just got back from Ukraine after her master’s degree program and since then, she’s been frequently coming to stay with me since I’ve been on land and working from my office.

Last week, I was billed to go to our Portharcourt office because our vessel berthed there. So immediately I got the mail, I decided to quickly dash home, pick a few things I’d be needing and then move. So it happened that the electric current in the neighborhood was relatively low and couldn’t pump water and my generator isn’t in good shape. So she made arrangements for a generating set to pump water( she told me over the phone).

When I got home, I decided to park outside the gate since I was moving almost immediately. On entering the gate, I saw her and a certain boy carrying the generator to return cos the tank was already filled (she said she called the guy to help with the gen. They know each other before she traveled out).

So I just greeted them casually and they put the gem in my car and went to return it. So I decided to have a quick bath before embarking on my journey. To my greatest surprise, I saw a used condom wrapper in the bathroom. At that point, my whole body system changed and I couldn’t even bathe again. I just wore my clothes, and waited for her to return with my car so I could move. Not long after, she came back and I just told her to call me and explain what’s in the bathroom then I zoomed off.
She claims she doesn’t know anything about the condom, then later told me it was the guy that came with his girlfriend.

I’ve not picked her calls since then cos I don’t even know what to think anymore.
Please I need advice guys. I’ve not been home since last week cos I’m so disappointed in her.
A part of me wants to forgive her, but I’m being skeptical.

Guys please advise me cos I can’t trust her anymore. I’m devastated right now. I can’t even work well.
What you should do is thank God you found out! Rejoice! And I say again , rejoice.

Sorry bro. Maybe it’s time you let your Wife know these issues you have shared with us and ask Her to advise you on how to cope. Then take it from there.

Sorry, your response reveals how naive you really are.

You believe that cults don't set about to kill during Initiations?

a).Because you don't understand that one single person with revenge in his heart could use the opportunity to deal with an adversary?
