Hello everyone.I was thinking of buying myself a powerbank today but the options are overwhelming. Romoss sounds good but I don't want to end up buying something I'll regret. So is anyone using a Romoss powerbank here? Is it any good?

Yes, it is. Another option would be Oraimo.

He his not a politician, the states have LGA chairmen and governors.

DiagnoPolitics:
The nigerian police will let you go into their station with recorders and phones for secret recording? Are you in Nigeria at all? Or you just want to drop an opinion because everyone is doing same?

Are you high? If you can't comment with some respect then please waka pass. I no like wahala.

Sometime ago last year, I gave my girlfriend some money to startup a restaurant business and she has been managing it well without issues.

She was doing so well that in no short time the business expanded, clean working and classy looking environment. Her workers were quite trained and they were neat as regards the preparation of the food they sell.

Trouble started last week. I got a frantic call from one of my Girlfriend's workers and she told me my babe got arrested by the police with some of her workers, she was the only one who eluded them.

I quickly rushed down to meet up with her as she wasn't coherent on phone. Getting there, she told me that earlier that day one of their regular customer came in to eat. According to her, the guy looked sick. He went on to ask for swallow and they served him.

Midway into his meal, this guy brought out some drugs to take and then he finished his meal. Table was cleared but the guy remained seated. Then few minutes later, he was observed to have laid his head on the table, eyes closed and they thought he was sleeping, not knowing the guy has passed off.

After like 30 minutes, one of my babe's worker decided to wake him to leave so that other customers could make use of his chair as everywhere was filled up. She raised the alarm when she tried to wake him and he was not responding. The guy was quickly rushed to a nearby hospital where he was pronounced dead.

Two hours later, my Girlfriend's restaurant was raided by the police on the suspicion that he poisoned the guy. All the food she cooked that day were seized and taken away for testing. And she and her workers have been in jail since and all efforts to see her has been unsuccessful. They won't let me see her and they won't tell me the results of their investigations so far.

I just don't know what to do. The food they claimed was poisoned was served to others and no one complained of even stomach pains not to speak of dying. I even ate from the food earlier that morning.

The way the whole case is going is so confusing and murky and it seems the guys family are well of and they are looking for someone to blame, innocent or not.

So guys, please what do I do? My girlfriend is all alone, no notable family to speak of, who could come out to help. Her parents are late and she isn't close to her relatives. I'm all she's got.

Have an autopsy carried out on the said guy, whatever result you get afterwards should be presented to the police/court of law. Get a lawyer to advise you on this, it's very important. Ensure whatever conversation you have with the police, staff, doctor is recorded. Make sure you get proper information from the doctor.

This is exactly why everyone is avoiding you.

U already made a step with recovery if truly u have depression.

Go meet a psychiatrist first and they will tell you what to do. The info about the cost will come them.

U said u dnt have enough...... And u dey even put LOL. People go begin question u say. Dis one is looking for comments and likes.

Be serious. And visit a Psychiatrist and see whats at stake first and GOOD LUCK

For some, depression is ladened with laughter, with smiles.

You must feel bad right now owing to the fact that you actually did see someone in pains and could have helped, you do not feel bad because you liked him, you'd have felt same if it had been someone else. You feel terrible right now and pray Lord you do not feel like you're responsible for his death, you'll probably feel guilty for the rest of your life. It won't be easy but you've got to forgive yourself and heal.
It's so painful when one isn't capable of helping people (at least to me, it really is). Please don't be too hard on yourself and help whomever you can (of it's r within your means).
Mend your broken spirit.

PeachtreeReside:
That is the job of the Government not citizens.

And if they don't do it? Look, don't get me wrong, I'm not saying people should do everything but whatever one can do within one's means then do it. One tree doesn't make a forest.

Wetin your papa don do for una village. Weyreh entitlements

How rude of you! And this isn't about entitlements. By the way, my dad is late.

CodeTemplar:
That's stúpid to say. my response came few minutes back but Nigeria has been stagnant for ages.

Hey, keep you cuss words to yourself please. Yes, it's been stagnant for ages, shall we say animals are the reasons the country has been stagnant?

mosdii:
it's pathetic to say the least.

Apart from Gboko and Makurdi then probably Katsina-Ala that are slightly developed and pronounced, the rest LGAs in TIV land are an eyesore.

Even the so-called LGAs you mentioned aren't that good, they're just fair. I served in Benue state, Makurdi LG to be precise and I must say things are really despicable. I don't know how it's done (maybe I should read about it sef) but sand from river Benue can be used to make glass. River Benue can serve as a means of irrigation, the people are poor (majority), no jobs, hunger is prevalent, teachers aren't paid salaries on time, farmers do not make money from their harvest and some parts where land is good for farming are ravaged by herdsmen (I'm a victim of this and it took God's grace for me not to have lost it!). Nothing is working in Benue state and all the state governor knows best to do is to claim he's a man of God. One would think Benue state ought to be one of the Richest and most developed states in the country but it's the other way round. Children as young as 10 years can be seen either married or pregnant, river Benue is littered with dirt. Nothing is working!

CodeTemplar:
because the state neglected them until they became something.

Oh my? Your response is one of the reasons this country isn't progressing.

Word Of The Day!

Quondam
[ kwon-duhm, -dam ]
:- former; onetime

E.g;
1. The quondam beauty queen was much more exotic than the one currently being crowned. ·
www.researchclue.com

WHAT IS THE ORIGIN OF QUONDAM?
The Latin adverb quondam, “formerly, anciently, once (upon a time),” has been used in English as a noun, “the former holder of an office,” as an adverb meaning “formerly, at one time,” and, currently and solely, as an adjective meaning “former, onetime.” All three usages in English occur close together in the first half of the 16th century. Quondam breaks down to the adverbial conjunction cum or quom “at the time that, when.” The particle –dam, however, is of uncertain origin.

Mercy!

Good to read.
I must confess that recently I became bitter because things fell apart for me. Anyways, I'm grateful for life and the things to come.

He's from Vandeikya and his LGA is that bad? How do some rich people neglect the state they're from?

Now this makes me miss my dad, terribly!

All hail my Alma mater.

Hmph.

Dreamliner787:
Lol.. Lady, you Tripping.. , but hold on lol.. Are you a futarian? And did you fail the course?

No, I am not. It's obvious my comment was for laughs but you didn't see that. I never carried over a course but thought to recount the times I had almost carried over some courses.
Anyways, no, I graduated from the University of Ibadan! I didn't fail the course

Dreamliner787:
Naso people dey fail Exam.. Na just one simple question OP ask oo.. wey this one don write text book finish

Chai...and to crown it responsible men are scarce this days...

Point of correction, responsible people.

Carryover in UI? It would have been crazy! Anyways, I almost had one in 200 level sha, GES 104 (SCIENCE, INDUSTRY AND MANKIND), hmph, I read and read and read but I barely understood it lol, I believe I had 43 in that course. Lol, narrow escape and the following year pass mark was increased to 45 in UI. Oh yea, one French language course like that. It was 400 level and the then HOD of Modern European Studies (prof Aiyeleru the only handsome man with tribal marks I know of) took us on grammaire, baba travelled and asked Dr Iniola (not real name sha) to set exam questions for us, of course we all prepared for grammaire na and because we knew it was Dr Iniola who had been asked to set and invigilate the exam as a grammaire lecturer we had to prepare extra hard (I never even had 7 points in his course all through my stay in school, chai!). Anyways sha, hmph, that's how the slated date came oooo, exam was in Faculty of Arts LLT, maka why na? We were only 14 students so why large lecture theater nitori Olorun (for the love of God)? Okay na, we prepared for it so no shaking! Baba oya share the answer booklets and exam paper na, he did oooo, hmph I think I must have been one of the last to have been one of the last persons to have been handed the question paper because I can vividly remember how others had paused for a long while looking like they were trying to decode some stuff, hmph make e no be wetin I dey reason o because I normally am the worst in grammaire (give me la littérature, l'histoire, la culture et civilisation, l'archéologie ou bien l'anthropologie and trust me to ace thème! But GRAMMAIRE IS MY NIGHTMAIRE). Anyways, I finally got handed the exam booklet and guess what?! I was faced with an entirely different thing, I've forgotten the course but lemme give an example, it's like reading for chemistry only for you to be faced with geology. Hmph, even Marie (not real name) who was Beninoise and one of the best couldn't even answer any question until about 30 minutes later then how much more a complete Nigerian? Hmph, I'm sure I must have spent 1 hour out of the 2 hours 30 minutes trying to understand the questions and why the wrong questions had been set in a grammaire course. Anyways, right there and then (and the second time after GES 104) I knew I had really failed and would be carrying over the course. No one smiled out of the exam hall that day, no single soul! I even heard some of my course mates went to Chapel of Resurrection to pray. Me, I jejely went home (my uncle's) to go inform them of my unavoidable failure and carry over, make we no waste time. Ahan, I never carried over any course na for my final year I wan come fail carry over a course? Which of my Ijebu people followed me to the exam hall? Lol. Anyways sha, upon the arrival of prof Aiyeleru in second semester, in one class held like that, he informed us that we'd have to write a test because if we didnt, then we were all bound to have an extra year, ah! As expected, lol, that's how we sat for another test and I managed to have maybe 3 or 4 points out of 7 points sha. Oouuuufffff, devil is a liar!!! I no go be first person to carryover a course in my family.
I almost didn't graduate self because I was terribly ill while writing my project (wrote my project on the hospital bed in Jaja). That one is story for another day! I repeat, DEVIL IS A LIAR, LOL!

I use redmi note 9s sha and it isn't bad.

Carchoice:

Pray, read your bible, listen to sermons. I'll recommend, DK Olukoya, Joshua Selman, Benson Idahosa, Kumuyi and EA Adeboye.
