Do you agree with Reno?
Tinubu should drive them out because they are. It registered in Nigeria? Or because they don't have Nigerian investors? Or because Tinubu is a dictator that can drive and undrive any business out of Nigeria?

How so? What about the oil money that has been powering the economy from the South south where he comes? What about all the trade powered by the North and South East in the Southwest? From food staples, to pharmaceuticals and spare parts that drive the economy.

Reno should stop clowning and chameleoning for attention. We can see right through Him.
CareerRe: What Should I Learn In The Space Of 2 To 3 Months? by TheGift: 6:52pm On Jul 18, 2023
Greatn3ss:
Good morning nairalanders,

I'm just a fresh graduate seeking for greener pasture, I've been applying for driving jobs around because I have a little driving experience at least if I can start from there. But the Issue is they have been requesting for my drivers license which I don't have at the moment, however I've started the process and according to information the drivers license sould take about 2 to 3 months to process.
Now I'm thinking of what to do within the space of this 3 months since I'm presently idle. What easy but promising hand work can I learn?, or what easy software skill should I learn to boost my career in the future or probably boost my CV?, which organization in Lagos can I work voluntarily for 3 months to gain skills that can help boost my CV?
Someone suggested learning how to fill gas.

NB; please if you own any organization within Lagos where I can work voluntarily, or you have any link or connection please help out. I don't like staying idle
First of all, why are you, a graduate, starting out your career by seeking work as a driver? What will your career progression be? chief executive driver, or head of staff transport.

Secondly , why are you asking people who don't know you and who have various biases what you should do? Why not ask yourself what you should do. Start with what you are passionate about, an industry you would like to work in. In short, If money was not a factor, and you had all to meet your needs and wants, what kind of work would you do?

Finally , you can learn about something in three months, but to really know about it, to really be skilled in it, takes effort, exposure, experience and time. It is practice that makes perfect. Therefore start with something or an industry that you won't mind being in for a while. Don't decide only on the basis of your stomach.

Good luck.

Lagos having the highest number of building collapse is really shameful for a city striving to be one of the worlds top global cities.

It is especially embarrassing as the current governor was once in charge of works and housing in the state.

They should learn building regulation from Abuja and move away from this paddy paddy and palm greasing approach to the process. Innocent lives are at stake here.
FamilyRe: Is It Wrong For A Woman To Initiate Conjugal Act In Marriage? by TheGift: 8:39pm On Jul 17, 2023
robosky02:
Marriage is indeed a beautiful institute. Some even say it is the. Oldest institution and was ordained by God himself.
It is even more amazing when the union involves two love birds, who have learned to really COMMUNICATE thier feeling, emotions, fears and commit to better thier weakness.

However marriage will be boring when there is a breakdown in communication. Especially in matters about the other room play, finance and third parties like In-laws and exes.

A man has been complaining that his wife doesn't initiate love making. Even if she is in the mood except he does. This has been thier other room complain.

So I want to ask the house
A. Is it only the man that should initiate conjugal play?
B. Is it wrong for a woman to ask for it as a legally married woman
C. What would make a woman shy away


Let's talk or counsel or advice to help somebody.


Please help a couple and other to learn.
His wife may just be the shy type, he needs to just continue to make her feel comfortable and not pressure her into forcing it. At most he should just let her know what he likes rather than demand that she acts accordingly.

But in direct answer to the question, it is ideal of both partner initiate sex. If we are to go by the Biblical pattern in the body of the Husband is for the Wife's satisfaction and the body of the wife is for the husbands satisfaction. It must be mutual to be ideal. He should let his wife know that it is His duty to be available to Her whenever she wants. Still some women will not be fully aroused if it's not the man taking charge.

So you see....a man can be stingy to one person and generous to another. At the end of the day, we are all stingy in our own little way. You get my point
I get your point.

However , I think it is still prejudging wether they are being stingy or not.

Everyone can give , but not every one gives generously and cheerfully, some give out of obligation or manipulation cos they want something in return.

The latter are definitely not generous. And generous is the opposite of stingy.

You be hardworking and still die of hunger.

Being hard-working doesn't guarantee the lack of hunger.

Peter and Andrew toiled all night in the sea but caught no single fish. Luke 5:5
Yes, but when they "prayed" to the master. They didn't sit in their house and wait for fish to fall through the roof. They still went out to do the work.

The problem with many Christian's is that they pray to God then wait for the answer to fall from the sky. Forgetting that God will always use what is in your hands.

God has really blessed me financially in last few years, I have enough testimonies , but a lot of it was through the works of my hands.

Inability to provide for family is NOT stingy.

Stingy is stingy, it means to be miserly, penurious- unwilling or showing unwillingness to share with others. It implies a marked lack of generosity.

What is your difinition of stingy? Differentiate poor man, from a stingy man.
Stingy man don't spend unnecessarily, they spend on things that matters. They take good care of their families very well but can't give money easily without justification.
We all know what stingy means. If you don't you can Google it. It is the same meaning in Nigeria and in US, Uk and other English speaking countries.

Please don't complicate the question by trying to read extra meanings into it.

Christianity EtcRe: As A Christian, What Is Your Best Posture Or Position When Praying? by TheGift: 8:57am On Jul 16, 2023
ebubeson:
Some may love kneeling down mostly when praying or standing or lying down or walking or sitting. Whichever way, let your prayers be of quality..

So what is your best posture or position when praying?
When I am walking , when I am working , when I am exercising, when I am driving, while relaxing on my bed... even sometimes in the middle of a conversation with people- without interrupting the conversation. In short , as I am living my life, in Virtually any position.

But if I must pick only one position i will pick the lotus position, sitting on the floor, with my legs crossed, my hands open on my lap, eyes closed with my head tilted slightly upward.

This position makes me feel the Father-Son connection the most. Prayer is more about listening to God than spewing so many words. That's why Jesus says, do not be like the Pharisees who think they will be heard because of their many words. Ecclesiastes says: when you come to God, draw near to listen, rather than offer the sacrifices of fools.

But for many, prayer is mostly about asking and begging God to help them with something. And half of the time they are not even praying
To God but talking to devils
And demons, binding , casting , and sending to ends of the bottom less pit , never to return again. And the next day they repeat. That is not prayer.

Think again.

If they increase the visa fees- fewer people will migrate

For those who still decide to migrate , they will pay more to access NHS and other national services.

Either way UK wins and either way potential or actual immigrants lose.

RomanceRe: What I Discovered About Women After Break-up With My Ex by TheGift: 11:10am On Jul 14, 2023
nnamdizen:
If everyman can focus on their God given responsibility of provision and protection and do it well, care for even themselves would be limited, not to talk of care for children. For the fact that your father had to step in, in the absence of your mum doesn't mean he did what all men should do, cos if you check, he might have underperformed in his responsibilities because he had to be a mother and father at thesame time.

FYI occasionally helping out to bathe the kids doesn't count, everyone does it
If you care about something , you will make time do that thing. My father went to work every day. But when he came back Home he had our time.

And on weekends We would always do some hug fun with my Dad. He would even cook for us. And he never slacked in His responsibilities.

In my own case I am an entrepreneur, I have structured my life to ensure I have time for my son everyday. My house and office / business are in the same space. After my Wife bathes And preps him for school , I walk him to school which is not far off, then start my day by 9. At 2pm I go to pick him up. While he is eating then taking His siesta. I am back to work. When he wakes up I usually take Him for a walk, sometimes with my wife. Or we do Home
Work or play with board games. If he poos and His mum or Nanny are not around , I don't wait for or call them . I go and change him. I often bathe him and feed him, esp on weekends when Nanny is not around and I know wifey needs to rest. In fact, the only thing my Wife has done/ does that I haven't done or do is breastfeed my child. Yet I still take care of my responsibilities.

I am speaking from my own experience. Let me not start telling you about real life experiences where the wife doesn't even care and it is the Man doing everything while still holding down a very serious job.

So I ask again what do you mean by men are incapable of care.
RomanceRe: What I Discovered About Women After Break-up With My Ex by TheGift: 7:04pm On Jul 13, 2023
nnamdizen:
Firstly God did not create any man to take care of a woman, women are charged with the responsibility of care, both for herself, her home and her husband, Proverbs 31, a man is not capable of care even for himself, that's why he needs a wife by his side, all he does is provide her with the necessary resources and environment to do her duty.

Secondly, the idea of marrying a teenager who knows nothing about the duty of a wife to the husband is quite risky except for some traditions, where the wife is sent to stay with the mother in law for a certain period of time, so she can be properly groomed to perform her wifely duties effectively.

Thirdly, keeping a woman locked in as a perpetual house wife is no short of modern day slavery and a waste of potential.
Women as I have come to know are multipliers, what ever you give them they multiply, give her foodstuff they make you a meal, give her a house she makes it a home, give her love she gives you care, give her money she hides and save some for tomorrow, give her ignorance, illiteracy and boredom, she rubs your name in the mud.
I couldn't get past "A man is not capable of care" what kind of fallacious and untrue generalization is that?

I am a Man that cares for my child every day along with my Wife. My Father cared for me both before and after my Mother died.

Even in my most stubborn days, he still cared for me. So I don't get what you are saying that Men are not capable of care. Please clarify.
RomanceRe: What I Discovered About Women After Break-up With My Ex by TheGift: 6:58pm On Jul 13, 2023
So because of your experience with one Woman, you think this is how all Women are?

Anyway, that particular Woman did not change, She just showed Herself for what She really was and wants.

It's her life, and especially as She was not your Wife, don't feel the need to judge Her.

It is better you blame yourself for falling for Her Woman than blame Her for not choosing you or not keeping it real with you.

When you do, you will stop using phrases like "I lost my ex". You will finally realize that you did not lose anything.

Cry. Then move on.

Introduction:
Driveinhud is an innovative carpooling solution that connects commuters and empowers them to share rides, save money, reduce traffic congestion, and build a vibrant community. Our mission is to transform the way people travel by promoting sustainable transportation options and fostering social connections. In this article, we'll provide a comprehensive overview of our company and app, along with answers to common questions that will help you understand the benefits and functionality of driveinhud app.

How it works
If you're a car owner, you can create a trip on the app and share your ride with others going the same direction with you.
If you don't have a car, you simply join a trip going your direction.
You can also create trips if you don't have a car - you just create a trip, get people to join your trip and you book either bolt or uber and split the cost among yourselves.
This would help you save your money by sharing the cost of transportation with others especially in this economy.

This is obviously an innovative and necessary idea.

I think you should reconsider rebranding (I.e changing the name) to resonate more with what it actually does.

"Drive-in" does not. And "hud", what is Hud?

People tend to be drawn to brand names that speaks to something related or that they can relate to. The name doesn't work for both. Please reconsider.

Interesting, considering the letter, it's sounding like a crime of passion I.e vengeance . Also, like a crime committed by someone the deceased was comfortable with, such as the brother to His dead ex "girlfriend" who came to visit.

Still the police should not be distracted by that letter as it may be a decoy. If someone can murder they are also capable of lying to cover up their tracks.

Thank you very much for that mathematical correction. You are correct.
