TravelRe: Lady Shares 5 Things She No Longer Does After Moving From The US To Nigeria(pix) by TheGift: 10:10pm On May 14, 2025
Glimpsetv:
A Nigerian lady who recently returned from the United States has shared five things she no longer needs to do herself since relocating to Lagos, Nigeria.

According to her, the first major change is that she no longer has to drive, as she now has a personal driver.

Secondly, she doesn’t cook anymore, thanks to the availability of organic food vendors and skilled cooks. She either orders food or hires someone to cook for her whenever she wants.

Thirdly, she revealed that she now has a personal assistant, so she no longer has to run errands on her own. Fourth, she no longer needs to clean, as she has hired a cleaner who comes in daily to handle all the cleaning.

Lastly, she said she doesn’t have to take down her braids or do her own hair anymore, as there are always people available to help her with haircare.

The viral video has sparked mixed reactions on platforms like TikTok, Instagram, and X (formerly Twitter). While some admire her lifestyle, others believe only the wealthy can enjoy such luxuries in Nigeria.

Watch the video and share your thoughts in the comments.

While some may describe me and Wifey as wealthy. Reality is , we don't see having domestic business admin/support staff as a luxury but a necessity. It helps us focus on what we should be expending energy on.



Support staff like, cook, cleaner, nanny and gardener and admin manager are some of the non negotiable staff

Vocational folks will always have be affordable on my payroll, as they afford me more time ,
energy and effort to focus on less mundane and more important stuff

P.S. My Wife maked her own hair sometimes. Not because She is cheap, but because
She can

.i actually like the last one She made, better than others made by hairdressers.

Fubara can hold his head high for fighting to a logical conculsion. It took the intervention of the FG , suspending democratic process to remove Him via state of emergency.

PoliticsRe: Defamation Suit: Again, Senator Natasha Akpoti Absent From Court by TheGift: 7:21pm On May 09, 2025
JimRohn:
What this really reveals is a desperation to cling to conspiracy theories when the facts are too uncomfortable to face.

Accusations of 'agents' and 'premeditated propaganda' are the last refuge of those who can’t counter substance with logic.

Joining a platform days before a public event doesn’t prove orchestration—it proves nothing except your eagerness to invent narratives to distract from the real issues.

If your defense of Akpabio and Sandra Duru requires smearing others with baseless claims, then perhaps it’s not the accuser who’s struggling with credibility—it’s you.
But why do you keep sharing your posts on this with matter with me. Over 50 shares from one person, and its all about Natasha and Akpabio.

I'm just so tired of the exorbitant fee on the band A. I spend 90k/100k per month. I only put on just one AC 1&half horse power for three hours in a day, I have to stop using the other four AC. 4 ceiling fans-2 wall fan for 15 hrs, 1 TV for like 14 hrs, 22 bulbs,1 fridge, occasional use of washing machine, pumping machine and air fryer.

Is this normal? It's is so draining, just like I'm paying a house rent in my own house. Could this be as a result of bad wiring or na so everyone dey feel am.

Huh! If its white, All the Pontiffs have been white. Only one black Man (a Nigerian) has ever really stood any chance.

My main and only point is that Trump can hardly influence their process.
Christianity EtcRe: Robert Francis Prevost Is New Pope by TheGift: 7:31pm On May 08, 2025
For those saying they see the hand of Trump in this, The process of electing a pope, known as a papal conclave, is a secretive and internal affair of the Catholic Church, where cardinals gather to vote on a new leader.

*Key Aspects of Papal Conclave:*

- *Eligibility:* Only cardinals under the age of 80 are eligible to vote.
- *Secrecy:* The conclave is held in secret, with cardinals taking an oath of absolute secrecy.
- *Voting Process:* Cardinals vote by secret ballot until a candidate receives two-thirds of the vote.
- *Influences:* The selection process is influenced by the College of Cardinals' discussions and debates about the needs and challenges facing the Catholic Church globally.

https://punchng.com/borno-gov-bans-alcohol-sale-warns-against-promoting-criminality/
Banning Alcohol sale is the least of Zulum or any northern states, governments substance abuse issues; for decades, especially as Islam only expressly forbade alcohol, the north has been very heavy on hard drugs, like tramadol, revnol etc, even before southerners knew about those things.

Whatever problem he is trying to solve by banning alcohol, will only be made worse, by driving up dependence on harder and even more destructive substances.

The solution is in handling, critical issues like youth education, youth employment, poverty and mental health.

Pls I don't know if it's because of many years of being an introvert that causes this problem that is affecting because i am always weak I can't run raise my voice. Some say I act like a woman.even if I want to act agile or fast I can't .I just started a job that requires being strong ,fast,and bold but I can't do all that and the manager and supervisor are not finding it right with me. cry

Because even the ladies there at my workplace are more stronger, faster than me in doing the job,and they even start asking me if I am medically fit

Pls any tips or supplements that I can use to behave energetic pls I will appreciate thanks.
Aim to do at least 100 push ups and 50 squats a day, for the next 90 days. (You can.take breaks on Sundays or days after very physically stressful days)

It's great on days when you may not be feeling very physically strong but maybe even best on days when you are not feeling mentally strong.

Don't forget , as a Man thinketh in His heart, so is He.

Make sure you pace your self, even if it means doing in sets of 10 or 5.

The hunger you are experiencing must be really bad, for you to reduce the UK to just a "food-in country".

Keep deceiving yourself, like they are handing out free baskets of food over there.

I didnt say the person should lie. One thing you need to know about Job hunting is that you need to tailor your cv to the role in question. No one says you lie. It is possible that the person has gotten some skills in data analytics but the CV is not tailored to reflect that.
Thanks for clarifying
Jobs/VacanciesRe: Why Are Tech Jobs Difficult To Get? by TheGift: 3:23pm On Feb 18, 2025
larryUG:
Having a certification alone will not land you a job. What lands people jobs, especially non entry-level jobs, is the work experience. The certification will only count if you have the requisite related experience in Data Analysis. if your previous job didnt have anything to do with data analytics, then applying for such a job in the hope that your certificate will land you a role is useless, except it is an entry-level role.

My advice, tailor your CV to that of an experienced data analyst if you have not done so.
Should he lie that he has experience when he doesn't have experience? That is how he will go and embarrass Himself or bungle things when it comes to executing. Why not just apply for internships or entry-level roles to start building experience?
Jobs/VacanciesRe: Why Are Tech Jobs Difficult To Get? by TheGift: 3:18pm On Feb 18, 2025
You fell for the market hype of techjobs, especially the likes of data analytics. Many people thinking they can learn enough in 12 weeks to start commanding earnings in the tens of thousands of dollars. Knowledge is one thing, experience is another. Employers and clients, pay for the experience.

As someone who as done some hiring for product development teams, i can tell you that some aspects of the tech jobs, especially the likes of data analytics and ui/ux design are over-saturated. For every one full-stack developer application, I got almost 20 UI?UX or data analysts application. Yet all I need is one, and they are not usually required for a long time, unlike the more technical roles. But even the technical roles are being challenged with the advent of A.I.

In deciding your career path, don't go with the hype. Start with passion and talent. And dont look at what is booming now, but what willl be booming in the next 5-10 years.

adaperry25:
The noise about tech got into my head and I quit my 8-5 job. Though the 8-5 job was becoming stressful and toxic, I couldn't cope and had to leave.

I had saved some funds and learned data analytics. Now here is where the issue lies.

I've applied to more than a thousand jobs and I keep getting rejections.

My hope was to get a remote job but I'm not seeing it coming.

Is tech all about noise or it's just saturated?

While learning , we were told a data analyst earns 30k USD annually. I'm just getting tired and frustrated
