But Tinubu thought that it could be solved with a Silver Bullet, and thoughtlessly plunged the common citizens into extreme hardships, in the name of saving on subsidy, while still incurring more debt.

May God and the sincere change makers help us. 🙏🏽

Pls I need answers

1. Spend within your budget
2. But don't be cheap
3. Focus more on the experience than on the food (this should determine where you go)
4. Don't do something that you can't or won't do at least once a month
5. Whatever you do don't be fake (if they don't feel you, then you will quickly know and can let them go)

The headline is misleading, there is no official offer of assistance from the UK Air Force.

Travel / Re: I Envy People Who Left Nigeria Already. by TheGift: 6:39pm On Feb 01
Animegirl:
Words can't express how I weep for this country; my future lies in the hands of this nation.

As a young lady striving for success, it seems to be getting harder each day. Things are becoming more expensive, with an increase in the dollar exchange rate.

Life now is about surviving, not living. cry


If your future lies in the hands of this nation, then the future of the nation should lie in your hands.

This is not time to sit on your hands moping. This is the time to turn the challenges into opportunities.

Envying people that have left the country is not wise. For even they are not free from the rat race and lifestyle of survival.

Travel / Re: Which Country Can I Relocate To With 5 Million Naira? by TheGift: 3:52pm On Jan 30
esemes256:
Use half of the 5 million to start livestock business. Within a few months, you will be feeding thousands of people and making alot of money. You will even end up establishing a business that can last for generations to come.

Spending all your life savings to relocate to another country where you will have to start afresh is a very big risk. There are reasons why the super rich remain in Nigeria come what may.

Exactly, using your life savings to escape to another country to go an hustle an uncertain has always seemed illogical to me.

If you can go to Europe to hustle, why not hustle and grow that bird in hand here rather than. Chasing the two in the bush that we are not guaranteed.

Instead of me to Japa to one country I’d rather be a global citizen that can afford to go anywhere and come back home, as I please.

Getting to any country DOES NOT make you rich.

What exactly do you want to go and do there should be the question you should be asking yourself.

A lizard in Nigeria will not turn crocodile abroad.

Exactly. Japa is about “running away from”. But the leaders in life are those that are motivated by purpose I.e something they are running to. And when you understand purpose , you are less moved by fear and keeping up with the Japa Jones’

It is more hype than reality. Many of those who remain there do so because they have little choice.

Properties / Re: What Is The Idea Behind These High Roofs? (Photo) by TheGift: 10:20pm On Jan 23
money121:


Mute Efe

As far as I know it is due to our copy-copy mentality. We copied high roofs from other countries without knowing why they were popular- especially countries where it snows, unlike Nigeria.

A steeper incline will allow the snow to fall more easily of the roof.

mrrandomguy:


First of all ask your Employer whether their request is or is not in contravention of the GDPR (general data protection regulation).

It most likely contravenes GDPR because it invades your privacy, both before, during and even after your employment with them.

Ask your employer if there is another approach to achieving their purpose that is not law breaching and privacy invading. You can also come up with strategic options which you can propose.

This might actually be a test. Stand on Law, Your right to privacy and common sense.

The title of this article alone, is at best funny and fishy. Which one is best stock market in the world again?

According to who? Based on what parameters? And how has that affected the price of fish in the market for the common Nigerian.


Of all countries to compare Nigeria with its Argentina- are we sure it’s not first from behind?

People are no longer moved by these meaningless metrics.

You don’t know the kind of games this people play…

So They/Ganduje intentionally let it go, only to come to court and start fighting tooth and nail up to the Supreme Court to get it back.?

I think you need to think twice and check yourself first, before calling other people dumb.

Don’t attribute to malice something that can easily be attributed to logic and common sense.

Na their brothers full Army, Police e.t.c. They are all waiting for an operation in the South East so that they can come and massacre innocent people.


Boko Haram escalated in 2011 with massacring Igbos in Maiduguri and Adamawa. Elders kept shut and supported because Igbos were the victim. Now, they expect us to sympathize with them. Una go wait tire.

Please show proof that Boko Haram escalated in 2011 with Massacre of Igbos in maiduguri. Because as far as I remember Boko Haram became radicalized in 2008 and since then their victims have been mostly citizens of the north east, particularly Borno state.

Religion / Re: As A Christian Is It Possible To Practice First Fruit In This Harsh Economy by TheGift: 1:04pm On Jan 14
guobe:
It is the start of a new year and most Christians do practice the act of fresh fruits whereby your first salary in the year or fresh profit of business, first money of your new marriage etc is given to the church.
In this harsh agbado economy in Nigeria,is it possible to practice the act of giving first fruits.

According to the Christ- “He that is faithful in little , will be faithful in much” . It is in this economy we will know who are the sincerely cheerful givers.

The ones who understands that whatever they have is not their own for they are owned by God Who is sufficient and able to meet all there needs according to his riches in glory.
