kamel4real2015: Yeah that's just it I can't marry or date a lady that won't be able to help me or have positive impact in each other life not those who only interest is sacking all you got atleast both parties have to compliment each other but they won't do that like there parents but more into material that doesn't have any long time benefits. Many Nigerians ladies have this terrible mindset: I give you sex while you, in turn, must pay bills. This is the attitude that have birth to "aristocracy" in our universities and society at large. And once you marry some of them, they sit at home and get so fat eating 6 times a day. |

evegran: Op I don't understand why this pains you.
Do you think we don't have jobs or occupations? Must everyone like what you like?
Does everyone have the same face? Heck! Even in your family? Why can't you allow your education affect your social life? The more educated you get, the more open minded you should be. But in Nigeria, it is a different case. Because most Nigerian guys like this Op for example, reason like cavemen.
I bet you think music, fashion and partying cannot be an occupation, when in today's world-people are earning a living off of this things. SMH for you Op.
Most of us on NL, are here to get informed and entertained. Everyone isn't job hunting like you or seeking properties to buy and inflate their prices.
Learn to respect the lifestyle or decisions of others and stop coming across as an educated illiterate! go and sleep if you have nothing positive to contribute. You think anybody gives a hoot how you feel abt Op? |

kamel4real2015: Notice that ladies on NL rarely visit the property section but are quick in posting on romanceland or do they believe they can channel there energy there who romance help just wish they can change there mentality on things that can improve life than unnecessary boyfriends, dating,e:fighting they involved in and face real life situation rather than beaming in unnecessary ranting and over hyping of there body. They are not on more important sections because they have Arsenal, Man U, Bermuda Triangle and Apples to share to their biggest fans: MAN. No beefing but ladies- Nigerian ladies- are FULL OF THEMSELVES online, even though that most of them are nothing to write home about in the real world. Most are jobless, ugly (a reason why some come online) and saucy. Ever tried engaging a typical Nigeria lady on a serious topic? She would find you fuccking boring. Their best topics are romance (telemundo) weavon, rich boys and white weddings. Not forgetting how to order items from "Konga dot com". My respect goes to the EXTREMELY FEW ladies who think like businessmen. Hard to find on NL. |

In this age of VARIETY: MTN, Etisalat, Airtel, I doubt if anyone wastes his time FIXING a snail-speed crappy network from a company that has sworn to be beyond redemption.
My solution was to PORT TO THE NETWORK with the best, steady signal wherever I am. The cost: bought several new sims.
Glo is a useless Nigerian network without any hope for improvements. They wouldn't even offer a fuccking apology to customers! For instance I bought 3 GB but couldn't actually use up to 500 MB before it expired.
I implore EVERY Nigerian to port away from Glo, let's watch them crash, dung-hill crappy 419 network! Gosh! |

There's one thing we need to get right in Nigeria (and perhaps many other parts of black Africa): BEING SELFLESS. I'm sure this sounds queer.
An average black man is so selfish that he would use his toilet and flush it down, sweep his compound and keep HIMSELF clean; but once he steps out in his SUV, he throws out all the empty Ragolis and Lacasera containers onto the public roads without remorse. He pees by the roadside like a wild animal. No guilt or shame because those are PUBLIC roads/utilities. Let the public worry, he's fine.
Even our markets are built on filth and doctors buy meat slaughtered in the gutters we call abattoirs, no worries, haha. Education and/or overseas travel has not helped correct this evil, Stone Age attitude in most of us. Even religion hasn't too. It's such a shame.
Now we even have a fuccking thread to CELEBRATE swept streets? Why don't we sweep out our dirty selfish attitudes rather than sweeping the streets everyday? |

Heineken: hahaha badt guys Seriously bro, Nigerian babes prefer badd guys. In fact the badder the better. I learnt this in the university. Women love complicated things, complicated guys so to speak. It keeps them constantly on FBI mode. That's when she will realize that this guy is really hot for other babes to be fuccking him while she sits around and not hold on tightly to her "bird at hand"... My babe never caught me cheating buh she regularly used to tell me that she knows deep down in her soul that some other Chics are fuccking me and that she'll kill that b1tch if she catches her someday. I usually smiled and say nothing. That's how to stay alive in Nigerian relationships. |

Heineken: may God bless you bro.. You're very sharp. There's no love.. And one thing I know and love telling my friends is that when it comes to women, they must have back ups. When one fumble, pick another sharply. She won't even try fyvkin up knowing fully well that she's not the only one. This thing nearly happen to me bro during my nysc days but I sharply forget that birch of a girl and another girl enter sharply. There's no time to love anyhow. I like your comment bro The best way to get Chics to be loyal is to have them constantly suspect that other Chics are fuccking you, that she's not the only one. That way she would always struggle to be "the special one" and ultimately "the only one". The moment I applied this theory to my relationship, my then gf was so loyal that everyone started calling her my wife. |

Kill myself over a woman? Lol Even while I dated my "main" gf I had over 5 side chicks who were always looking forward to fuccking me.
And this babe was fuccking loyal to me because she suspected that she wasn't the only cat in my yard... She was always struggling to prove herself in order to get my maximum love and commitment to her.
But what do I see in this Op's breakup story? A spoilt little kid, an ajebuttered "good" boy who had so much in university to even be "paying" his gf. I laugh in Chinese. So his gf simply took from the "boy" and fuccked her "man". That's what babes do when you play the good boy card. |

You just finished NYSC and u have already started drinking antidepressant drugs at this age. so how long will u continue...
All I kind of feel is that u are looking for someone that will replace your mum or someone that will "mother u" once again but news flash!! there is no girl out there that is ready for that... the best u can get is a best friend who will maybe later be your future wife.
I am really not happy with u for trying to kill yourself. imagine going for lectures for 4yrs, doing all the horrible assignments in school, all the stress on everyday life. only to throw it away for some girl who is not even miss world or even miss nairaland.

amaraedec: I have not spoken to anyone about my ordeal but I sincerely hope your advice will go a long way towards healing me and restoring back my sanity.
I started dating this lady whom I still love so much February 2013, few months before I lost my mummy. I was so cautious of the affair at first, knowing that it was the first time I am getting so emotionally entangled to a lady, but after I lost my mum, I was so hurt and the fact that she was the only person very close to me then, I threw caution to the wind and fell helplessly in love with her, hoping that it would help alleviate the pains of losing My mum and praying deep inside my heart that the relationship will lead to marriage. It did to a reasonable extent alleviated the pains of losing my mum.
Even while I was in school, I gave her everything that I somehow lived in deprivation. Her friends were complaining to me that I spend a lot on her and it might backfire one day. I ignored their advice. I buy her handouts, clothes, Mobile gadgets and even give her certain amount of money on monthly basis to add up to her feeding money, I made sure she lived above her peers in school .
The whole problem started late 2014, when I was about leaving for my NYSC. she started acting quite strange, I respected her privacy that I don't even touch her phones, even though I give her the freedom to handle my phones and answer my calls. I noticed she wouldn't pick up her calls while with me. Like I said, I respected her privacy that I never gave so much thoughts into her actions, I loved and gave her my all believing that she will never cheat on me. Then on her birthday, I had got lots of surprising gifts for her and even arranged a little get together without her knowledge. To my greatest surprise, she surfaced at the venue of the party with the excuse that she was going on an errand for her parents. I handed over to her the gifts I got for her, she collected them and left the venue. Little did I know she had gone to see her erstwhile lover. Depression had started creeping in and I was losing my sanity apparently.
To cut the whole story short, when her girlfriend opened up to me that my girl was having affairs elsewhere, I never believed her at first, but after I confronted her, then I was looking so sick and pale, completely lost in thoughts and pains. She eventually opened up and was really sorry to the best of my knowledge . I couldn't help the pains, I. Started taking anti depressants, I have already vowed never to cheat in my life, knowing that prosperity has a way of rewarding Fidelity.
After I was mobilized for NYSC, I left for my Camp, but the ghost of a failed relationship was already hunting me, I had lost interest in living. Shortly after I returned back from my Orientation camp, everyone knew something was wrong with me, I only told them that it was the stress from Camp. Well, I was battered emotionally, that on 31st December 2014, I hit the rock button and decided to end my life and end the pains, I took insecticides and collection of anti depressants in over dose and battery acid, I cheated on death as I was in Coma for 4 days, I was referred to a psychologist for rehabilitation after I was discharged on the 12th of January 2015. I spent 6 months in rehabilitation Center here in Lagos State, where I was also serving then.
After the whole incident, I made up my mind to forgive her and give her a second chance since she was really sorry. The whole scenario started replaying itself, that she started acting strange again, already my friend had told me that she was seeing someone else. My family knew I was slipping into depression again and had wanted to fly me out of the country, but I was denied Visa when I least expected it. I had to leave Enugu for Lagos so as to keep away from her and the environment. but she still calls me on phone, saying that she still loves me, I truly love her so much. Am totally lost of words, lost of ideas. Am terrified to say the least. Am losing my sanity again. Please friends, depression is getting better of me at the moment.. I need a sincere advise I can see hundreds of advice already but this is my singular advice: GET YOUR MIND BUSY WITH SOMETHING ELSE. |

virginchaser: GOD IS GOOD Sometimes last year, i board Ajah to Portharcourt, i chose a sit behind the driver. After Benin, through the mirror i noticed driver eyes closing intermittently . I woke him up 3 times. I regretted not informing there management when my junior sister called me that my favorite transport company had accident along Benin Ore express and lost about 16 lives. They need to ensure drivers have a good place to rest after a long hour trip . Any driver that refuses to comply should be sanctioned. There management must have safety classes every 3 days. My dear you took a terrible risk and thank God you didn't pay with your life. You wouldn't be here tell us about it. If I was the one who noticed the bus driver dozing I'd ensure that that vehicle is parked IMMEDIATELY for the driver to embark on CONPULSORY 30 minutes rest, irrespective of what the other passengers feel about my decision. I know how to achieve this because I know one or two numbers I'd call and the entire management of the transport company would be in deep sh1t. A lot of bodies are now in the cemeteries because of people like you who failed to TAKE DRASTIC ACTION IMMEDIATELY. God bless your soul. |

That's why the federal govt institutions is their industry. Go check it. Very true bro... No nepotism in advanced nations. Imagine the entire north rallying around a man who never sat for WAEC SSCE, was admitted into the army (because of his surname) with a recommendation letter from his principal. That's to show you that the north is laden with dullards without a sense of competition. Where in the east or west can a man without certificate be admitted into anything?

1) are all these NL gsm data resellers genuine? 2) why I asked question (1) is because I want to know if moderators have a way of authenticating them before the gullible public "patronizes" them. 3) how are the data they sell billed on our phones? 4) how and from where do these SMEs data resellers buy their bulk data? 5) what do those resellers who request for payment in recharge cards do with the card pins sent to them? 6) what's the best way for NLers to transact with online data sellers? Send them cash/recharge cards payment and wait for them to do the data transfer to us? Or insist on getting the transfer first before payment? 7) How do we establish trust for the first purchase? 8 how comes these resellers NEVER indicate their contact/business addresses online to command more trust to potential customers? 9) has anyone ever been scammed by these guys? 10) are these two categories of data billed equally (as in Naira per MB): a) 4 GB data @ N1,000 by an online reseller b) 1.5 GB. @ N1,000 by MTN?

His versatility to rap and sing and also fit into different genres of music from trap to reggae to fuji and many more has distinguished from The crop of talented artistes in Nigeria today..
This brings one to the reason why the artiste has not been duly recognized internationally and outside Nigeria alongside his peers like Davido and Wizkid..
Why is Olamide name lacking in most international awards and the talented artiste not getting deserved attention from the outside World.. "It's better to be a lion in the jungle than to be a dog in a city" What is the meaning of "international"? That his music should appeal to Donald Trump or what? How many American artistes appeal to the present day Nigerian music listeners? Almost ZERO. Very few, realistically. Olamide has a style which works for him and his fans.

Sirmuel1: No matter how careful you are, one reckless driver can still hit you from behind. A good road will reduce the rate of accident in Nigeria. When I say MAN is solely responsible for accident, it doesn't necessarily have to be you the driver- it could be the other driver. But ultimately it's MAN and not the STATE OF THE ROAD. Why? 1) Nigerians already know from birth that roads are always bad, so why drive as if you don't know? Why speed? Why overtake? 2) few cities with good roads still record frequent ghastly auto crashes. Abuja is a well known example. 3) 90 percent of Nigerians cannot drive, have no training and often obtain drivers license corruptly. This is why we literally have chaos on our roads. Having lived in a western country, I can authoritatively tell you that over 90 percent of Nigerian drivers on Nigerian roads have no idea what driving is all about. 5) drivers do all manner of insane infractions on the road because THERE ARE NO CONSEQUENCES such as fines or seizure of license.The richer your vehicle looks, the more above the road laws you are. The end result is that we continue to die like chickens on daily basis, even if we fix all the bad roads WITHOUT FIXING OUR BAD DRIVING ATTITUDES. |

There's something really wrong with us in this country and that's why we die everyday on the roads.
Abuja has good roads but every week I see terrible crashes. On good, wide marked roads. And we say bad roads are the major problem?
90 percent of Nigerian road users drive selfishly, dangerously, too fast and like vampires. Even on Sunday morning when they are going to churches.
Yes each time I stop at the red traffic lights, I see a lot of motorists speed past the lights! They feel smart and I am the dumb one.
We drive as if we are Iron Man, as if we don't die. Breathtaking speed is our call. And when we die we say 'what a pity, rip'. Then we continue with our evil attitude. See the lives we waste on our highways because of our personal recklessness and I-am-a-smarter-driver attitude.
Then we use Satan to cover up our shame. We say the roads, not us, are sucking blood. Shame on us as a people! |
