PropertiesRe: Enugu Property Agents: Agents Of Darkness (picture) by Tracingpaths: 11:38am On Jan 28
Here is one of the devil tormenting people looking for a place to rent.

Evil justifying their wickedness and greed.

popp:
Why would the Mod hurriedly pushed this to the front page?

Let me crush some details....

The person you called an agent, if you didn't contact him, he wouldn't have talked to you. If you cannot pay for a service, why are you contacting someone to render such a service for you?

Secondly, agents DON'T shoot the price, they work in accordance with the Property owner. They can also advise the owners of the Properties as it is on the Market. That's valuation. There is nothing bad there. I am a Property agent in Portharcourt.

Such massive seven bedroom Duplex is not for everyone, so anyone that can afford it can also afford to pay the Professional charges involved.

You're chilling at the comfort of your zone, or you're very busy at your place of work or business, someone is running round to make things easy for you by looking for that Property that you want, why wouldn't you pay him with happiness?

Why are you calling the government? How many jobs have the government provided for her citizens? If government want to dive into the sector, let them build low cost houses everywhere for Civil Servants and low income earners, residents and what have you and make the price like a pea nut, then you can see how the force of demand and supply will push the price down.

However, the cost of accommodation is skyrocketing everywhere this time round, not just in Nigeria. You should have asked President Tinubu why he removed the fuel subsidy without putting in place the necessary measures that will remedy its negative effect.

The Nigeria economy has remained bare, it needs to be clothed.

FreeStuffsNG:
Smh. Iran is now a nuclear power like North Korea , Just deal with it wink

President Trump is surrounded by 100% white-only rookies like Hegeseth, Walz, Vance etc so most Americans from the Intelligence background are not surprised.

Same bomber didn't burst bunkers in Yemen so it's strange how you expect it to work in Iran. Billions of US taxpayers funds burnt to pieces.

In things within your authority and rights you must strive to do the right no matter the outcome. It will surely pay if not immediately, in the near future. Not doing the right because the outcome will be bad to oneself will only Keep things not moving well (in this case the Lagos state). You can't be controlling everything, that's shear greediness on the part of his principal.

Wow!


This is deep!

I don't even know what to say or where to start from... truly you're courageous and strong.

Back to my former question ma....did you still have any plans of getting married or having kids of your own?


Kids are very beautiful my dear sister...money is enjoyable when spent with your loved ones..... watching your baby grow into an adult is also a beautiful thing... having a man who truly loves you for you is also nice.


I'm sure you're happy but more assured that there are days which you wish you were married with kids.

How have you being coping with stigmatization?

Pressure from family... friends... co-workers... church members?
You got me... Just say it...
EducationRe: Stop Sending Your Children For Holiday Lessons by Tracingpaths: 4:13pm On Aug 21, 2023
Oduok:
Sending kids to holiday lessons makes no sense.

Most of you will make your kids go to school till they become useless. You took them to school at age 3 and abandon them there. During long vacation you still send them to school. To do what?

Can't you spend time to bond with your kids? What exactly are they going to achieve in school during vacation? Vacation lesson only favour school owners, not you. Allow kids rest for God's sake.

If you should engage kids during long vacation then teach them skills. Enrol your kids in centres that they can learn practical computer usage, coding, programming, painting and decoration, catering, musical instruments. Let them learn martial art, how to shot guns, how to wrestle. Teach them something beyond pure academics.

If a school should organize long vacation class then it should gear towards extra curricula activities - debate, modelling, music concert, science fair, mini project. How would you call kids back to school during holiday to learn Math, English, Chemistry, Social studies, accounting, by same teachers that taught them during school period. What is the difference? If these teachers knew what to teach why didn't they do it during normal school session.

Education is beyond memorizing facts. Give your kids opportunity to develop and be better prepare for life.
I was with you until you mentioned teachers. Are teachers the ones organising holiday lessons?

Get your facts right!
Jobs/VacanciesRe: Can I Be Allowed To Leave My Beard As A Prison Officer by Tracingpaths: 9:19am On Jul 24, 2023
Madu2013:
Lol……Alright.
It’s been 2 years plus since I made this post and started working in Nigeria correctional services.
About the question I asked concerning my beard, this was what happened afterwards:

I was instructed to barb my hair and beard during the documentation and training. After the training I worked in prison yard for a couple of months then I used my connect to get myself transferred to my state H/Q to work in the office of the state controller of NCoS (H/Q is solely for administrative purposes it’s not a prison yard).
When I got there i worked for 3 months and got very close to the state controller. After awhile, I met him privately and explained to him that I never wanted this job, that I’m all about business and online stuffs. I begged him to give me some time to pursue my dreams in business and explore other things he later obliged. Currently I have a start up, I go to work at NCoS like 5 times in a month and most of all I NOW KEEP MY BEARDS and my boss doesn’t say anything about it. Last year the state controller retired but he introduced me to the current controller as his boy and told him to take care of me, I maintained same good relationship with my current boss and the former arrangements still stands.
I’ve also been promoted recently to 2 star to the glory of God.
What I found out about keeping beard as an officer are this:
1. It depends on your rank and department.
2. It also highly depends on the relationship you have with your bosses and your superiors in the department.
3. It depends on the kind of person your direct boss is, if he is a strict person, over zealous and no nonsense person you are in trouble.
4. It also depends on you, if you still look neat and responsible even with your beards it won’t matter much because to some modern senior officers it’s all about discipline, looking neat and responsible before other things.
Great!
You understand how the Nigerian system works....
I pumped 1.5m into the job and still couldn't get it. Although people plenty we gather the money for me.... Long story

Most genuine jobs won’t require a down payment before hiring. Once a fee is attached to a job, it’s most likely a scam.

God help us
Paying for private job is bullshit. Private job mostly employ for your skill but you get to know with your connection.

Ask most of the people who got Federal Government job whether they didn't pay.
HealthRe: Doctors Share Alarming Stories Of Attack On Duty In Nigerian Hospitals by Tracingpaths: 12:56pm On Jan 05, 2023
Patriotic9ja:
Attacking medical practitioners is wrong in all terms. But these doctors too should be calming down. They have done more wrongs/damages in Nigeria than the said attacks they are having. In Nigeria their level of unprofessionalism and negligence is alarming. Which have led to numerous preventable deaths and many near misses. If not that there aren't systems checkmating their shortcomings, many of them would've lost their licences and serving jail terms.... I can count many cases of medical practitioners' carelessness, negligence, and unprofessionalism, leading to losses of many forms.
Just what I was going to say; since you've said it, let me just FEM!

Family150 Years From Now by Tracingpaths(op): 3:05pm On Dec 25, 2022
150 Years From Now

150 years from now, none of us reading this post today will be alive. 70 percent to 100 percent of everything we are fighting over right now will be totally forgotten. Underline the word, TOTALLY.

If we go back memory lane to 150 years before us, that will be 1872, none of those that carried the world on their heads then are alive today. Almost all of us reading this will find it difficult to picture anybody's face of that era.

Pause for a while and imagine how some of them betrayed their relatives and sold them as slaves for a piece of mirror. Some killed family members just for a piece of land or tubers of yam or cowries or for a pinch of salt. Where is the yam, cowries, mirror, or salt that they were using to brag? It may sound funny to us now, but that is how silly we humans are sometimes, especially when it comes to power or trying to be relevant.

I remember those days in my secondary school, how some people fought and did so many unimaginable things just to have their names shortlisted among those to be made school Prefects. Ordinary school Prefects o! It is just about 18 years since I left secondary school, nobody in that school right now remembers that I even schooled there despite my popularity then. Now, imagine what happens after 150 years?

Even when you claim the internet age will preserve your memory, take Michael Jackson as an example. Michael Jackson died in 2009, that was just 13 years ago. Imagine the influence Michael Jackson had all over the world when he was alive. Gosh, he was like a god. How many young people of today remember him with awe, that is if they even know him? In 150 years to come, his name, when mentioned, will not ring any bell to a lot of people. This is even because he was popular, imagine the majority of people who will never be known worldwide like him?

Let us take life easy, nobody will get out of this world alive. . . The land you are fighting and ready to kill for, somebody left that land, the person is dead, rotten, and forgotten. That will also be your fate. In 150 years to come, none of the vehicles or phones we are using today to brag will be relevant. Biko, take life easy!

Let love lead. Be genuinely happy for each other. No malice, no backbiting. No jealousy. No comparison. It is not a competition. At the end of the day, we all have the same destiny in the grave. It is just a question of who gets there first, but surely we will all go there.

Owo!

Akingbemila Folarin

Owo
Like a bird perching for a branch
Our heart goes to you
We are victims too as our heart is broken
Pain that makes one numb
And tears that drowns one.
A hurt that cuts deeper
Than a knife to the back
And a sting that quakes the mouth
Like one caught in a frozen lake.
Non should go by this path
It passing hell in the only place
Where one finds peace
How can we say, ‘find peace’
When peace was shredded
With Dynamite and bullets!

Those hellions take line
As the most degraded of souls
Thrown out of the sewage of hell
Demons in form of men
Spewed out of a putrid hell of a den
Men whose souls are filthier than mud
Who are thirstier for blood
Than the desert does for water
More lifeless than a stone
And less alive than a rot

Liquid will turn sand on their tongues
Food will turn dust in their mouth
Air will be toxin to them
And life will shred them and feed them their flesh
Justice shall chase them swiftly
Songo will strike them from the sky
Ogun will crush them on land
Osun will drown them in the waters
Till their life fades away like smoke…

Owo
Like a bird perching for a branch
Our heart goes to you

LiteratureBook Release_When Shadows Have Colours_Folarin Akingbemila by Tracingpaths(op):
A Quick Review

Heavily inspired by the works of Wole Soyinka and Niyi Osundare, Folarin Akingbemila has rolled out his debut literary work ‘When Shadows Have Colours’. This is an anthology of poems that has given the poet a seat in the hall of Modern Day Poets in Nigeria and Africa at large. Every aspect of life has been captured in over 100 intriguing titles. Based on a general thematic preoccupation, Folarin Akingbemila has divided the book into seven sections, which he termed ‘Parts’. The sections have been titled as follows:

A Country Held Hostage
A Drop of Reason in an Ocean of Emotion
The Ember in Ashe
A Student of Life
To a Dying World
Sonnets
Dog Eat Dog

In a bid to quell the wide-ranging conviction that poems can be relished only by a selected few, the poet, has collected words in a fashion that will speak to everyone who comes across the collection. In his words, “Various types of poetry have been captured under headings. These types include lyric, narrative, epistolary, ode, haiku, sonnet, elegy etc. This has been deliberate for different folks to have different strokes. While some poems have been deliberately made complex to capture the depth of where thought emanates, others can be enjoyed from the literal purview.” In a simple and interesting way, the poet has been able to weave metaphor and irony into a fabric of narratives that totally leaves the readers in awe. Poetry has been engraved on a coin. One part appears complex and the other, simple. As a matter of fact, there’s also a take home for those who would stand on the edge.

Plans are in gear to launch the work in various states and across colleges and universities. Folarin Akingbemila is also open to discussions organised by various reading clubs. This affords readers the opportunity to get on a first hand bases, the inspiration behind various poems.

‘When Shadows Have Colours’ is destined for the top shelve and the spotlight. It comes highly recommended for everyone who craves for knowledge and intrigue.
