One of the wonders of living in Lagos

Can your brother work as a handler in a manufacturing company? I have work for him, the pay is about 50k per month, but he must have physical strength. The location is oregun Ikeja. Maybe I can be of help to your brother.. The condition of your brother needs not just advice, but practical help

If you have money and can do it, please buy your own land and build your own house on it.
Landed properties have a way of causing troubles between brothers, especially if death happens.
Both of you may go to court and reach an agreement now, and both parties are happy with the agreement, but the future might hold something contrary. The issue may come from the wives you guys will marry, the wives wanting their husbands to go their separate ways and manage their their own properties.

This is time soludo needs to up his game. His state is bleeding, and he has focused his energy to playing lip service and working for APC. He should focus his energy in fishing out these criminal elements in Anambra

That's Yoruba for you,, very tribalistic, even when their saviour is near to them, they will use tribalistic attitude to scare him away. Lazy set of human beings, always wanting to reap where they didn't sow. Cooperative beggars

Fear Nigerian politicians, they can defend anything. They can even say that a poopoo is a well prepared jollof rice. They always speak in different tongues, there's no honour among them

Please someone should share what a comprehensive CV should look like. The one I have is well edited and it looks so good, and I have been using it to apply for jobs, but I don't get invites with it, I don't know where the problem is coming from,,,
Can someone please help me to share a sample of good CV. I'm pleading.
Thanks in advance

All these terrorists we dey recruit in the name of securing our territory. IPOB and ESN dey east dey do their own, boko haram for north dey do their own, now amotekun are on it, killing and causing havoc to innocent citizens

When you think of marriage, virgin should be the least thing to think about. Being a virgin is not a guarantee for a happy home. Character and homeliness, plus other good qualities should be your priority. What if she's a virgin but not well behaved.
Virgin is good, but it doesn't make a good wife material

I respect his decision. At some point in your life, you need support. No gain living in self denial.

Tinubu knows he's sick, weak and frail, but he keeps deceiving himself. He's sick and needs help, but arrogant will not let him seek help. It your self you're, and not us.

This is somebody's daughter, trained by her parents, and one day she will marry and start building her family.
How will she train children that will come after her

Dear OP, how much will it cost to go for vacation in ivory coast, I want to for vacation there, since life there is relatively affordable. Just 1 or 2 weeks vacation. I just want to leave the shores of this country for once. Please can you reply me, and let's discuss this. I'm very serious about it. You can give me your WhatsApp number

aboyaji:
I'll go first...

1. Cooking gas: Cooking gas is very cheap in ivory Coast. It costs an average of #330/kg of gas. So refilling a 12.5 kg cylinder should cost you #4125 at most.

2. Kerosene: kerosene costs relatively about #650/ litre in the fuel station, where the black market sells for #800/ litre.

Note : This country's oil production is very poor o. They're not even anywhere close to Naija's production.

3. Organisation: Ivory coast is very well organized that you can barely run into unorganized environment. Many areas are safely guarded by their local police officers stationed almost everywhere. You can as well make friends with the officers easily without any form of threat from them. They're very welcoming.

4. Very low violent place: People can move around as late as 10pm till dawn without the fear of harassment or violence. In fact, children play in the tarred road as late as 10pm. They have already come to terms about how safe they are in the country. People can stay up late wherever they went to without rushing back home due to nightfall. Night movements was my best !

5. Good Road network: I spent close to 7 months in ivory Coast and could barely see a road untarred. Almost every road I used was smoothly done and stretched to various cities and States. The only place my leg touched Sandy soil was in my compound because the landlord was still constructing more buildings in the site. So our compound was sandy at the moment.
Tarred road stretched into all compounds in ivory Coast. It's not the responsibility of the government to do your compound, it's yours. I was marvelled by such development though I spent most of my time in the rural area.

6. Security: Police is your friend is the Moto in ivory Coast. Really nice people. I guess I've said it somewhere before now.

6a. Theft is ALMOST uncertainty. The prepaid meter of every individual house is stationed outside the main building without burglary or iron shield. Anybody can touch it. It wasn't even stationed very high from the ground level. It went only as far as 3-4 feets high. A child of 10 can touch it too.

Our apartment is in a 2 storey building comprising of almost 33 units of one bedroom apartments. The building was built like a shopping complex. All of the prepaid meters used in this apartments are stationed outside where everyone can see and feel it. But no one steals it, likewise every other houses there.

6b. Once there was a particular theft in my ivorian friend's shop that I know of. There were 5 boys who was involved in burgling his computer and phone shop one night. But before 5am, the boys were all caught with the complete stolen items retrieved. Funny enough, my friend didn't know. He was woken up by the police to come to his shop and see the guys. And he didn't have to SETTLE THE POLICE FOR DOING THEIR JOBS .

7. There is constant electricity in that country. CONSTANT.
I only observed a few nightouts and those periods were understandable. They all know when the lights would go off in the week or month and have come to terms with it. Light doesn't go off intermittently as obtained in Nigeria. And throughout my stay there, I didn't pay for light bill or water. My caretaker didn't mention it to me too. I was surprised. Steady light

8. Economy: Their economy is very good. It's almost equaling to the Naira at the time I left. So, if you hear 500 CFA there, it's almost equivalent to 500 Naira. So don't do too much calculation.

8a. Minimum wage is very much respected and applied. A POS attendant over their is living a good standard life. A bar attendant earns about 20,000 CFA weekly... WEEKLY o. I mean a local bar attendant. How much more a corporate hotel or bar attendant or waiter.

8b. The money you earn can fetch you a standard living. Their money is easily made and spent too.

9. FOOD : Our area of specialty.

Food is over cheap compared to what's obtained in Naija. You can see someone who earns little but could afford chicken or any frozen food. Food is not part of their problems for now. Banana can go as low as 50 CFA or 50 Naira and it is not the small quantity we're talking about.

A bunch of Bananas that you can get from a roadside vendor in Naija for 800 could be gotten for 150 CFA. So you see it. Once I bought 2 Bunches of banana for 50 each, I couldn't finish them for 3 days.

9a. So sorry, vegetables can be scarcely found there my dear. I made most of my soup without vegetables. That part I didn't enjoy

That's for now. Anybody can add.

Echeta ebebe 1 of Daura

This one is yet to wake up from slumber that he lost the election woefully

The country is gone and gone forever. Unfortunately those tinubu supporters in this forum will still come out to say that the country is full of corruption, meanwhile their saviour is the king of corruption.

Me sef dey fear, Obi is taking his safety for granted, he's playing with it

You never know Yoruba people, two faced human beings. I'm not surprised to hear that from Soyinka, the Yoruba in him will always be there, he's not different. Na their way

'Dogs and baboons will be soaked in blood' is not treasonable comment, but saying that the president-elect stole another person's mandate is now treasonable offence. APC and stupidity are 5&6

Yoruba people are becoming nuisance, even the most respected ones among them are not left out

You guys have succeeded in damaging your first son. At this stage, the only solution to that boy's problem is to do his bidding, whatever he says he wants should be granted to him. That boy needs support, he needs both parents to stand by him. If you guys don't support that boy quickly, he will do something funny to himself. The best way out of this mess is to ask him what he wants, then give him whatever he says he wants. That boy has been damaged psychologically, emotionally and spiritually. It will be hard for that boy to be revived again, but you people should start from somewhere

Religion of piss and catastrophy

I don't understand this campaign after election by APC people

Party of propaganda

Do we still have another election ahead? I don't understand this campaign after election

They won election, yet they are still campaigning. A thief always watches his back wherever he's going

But APC Muslim-muslim ticket is ok. Dumb people, always seeing wrong in other people's move.
When you flaunt Muslim-muslim ticket in a Christian dominated country, what do you expect people from the opposite religion to do? Fóóls, always looking for loopholes

Nigerians are fraudulent anywhere they find themselves,, both the politicians and ordinary citizens all have fraudulent minds

That is where he belongs,, party of deadly killers

Return the stolen mandate before it will be over

Don't say Nigerians, say Yorubas

NIGERIAisComedy:
I used to tell people that if Elon Musk became a Nigerian citizen tomorrow, and wanted to help us by becoming the president and spreading development in a meteoric fashion, Nigerians will still reject him.

Maybe they will now start calling him Elon Chinedu Musk

Elon musk will be telling Nigerians, I can build GIGA factories here, solarize your power stations, build you rockets to MARS and satellites...

Nigerians, and Yorubas, will be saying "CHINEDU, WE DON'T WANT OOO, NA BY FORCE "

Chai

Chai, Chai, Chai!

Some Nigerians, seemingly, have made a pact with the devil, to ensure little to no progress in this country.

Yorubas are more dumb than I give them credit for. Sophisticated f00ls
