His parents actually meant well for him, but they went about it the wrong way

Marrying early is a very wise decision. You will be able to overcome most marriage challenges when you are still young and have strength. I admire when I see a 45 year old man with a 20 or 21 year old daughter.

But marrying someone you don't love is dangerous. I guess that's where his parents failed

I wish him well sha

Be like make we dey learn lesson.

If you like, shoot me with gun I will still say the Truth. All domestic violence, husband pour acid on wife, wife sleeping with another man, husband abandon wife, divorce cases that we hear right here on NL, they all LOVED each other VERY WELL before marrying. Upon all the love, they still damaged their marriages in the end.

Buharis policy of cramping down on public fund looters drove several PDP member into reduced spending to protect against the eyes of EFCC. This reduced spending led to excess supply since demand had to drop.

This would have been good on its own as supply exceeded demand leading to a drop in the price of goods in general. But coupled with the drop in world oil prices this led to a devaluation in the naira (as exchange rate is closely tied to the value of our main export).

What Buhari did not know is that a drop in price of general goods will deter foreign investors as they are interested in making profit which was not helped by the excess supply and reduced prices of commodities while means of production got more expensive.

He decided to change all policies made by GEJ regime without waiting to observe the economy. This is why you can freely and correctly say that the recession was his fault. If he had waited just a few months he would have seen that witch-hunting pdp members was not the answer to a better and profitable economy.

My solution to Nigerias problem is just one word -CONTINUITY. We need a leader who is truly for the people, I don't care if he was elected by the people but he must work for the people. This leader should be allowed to rule is for 30 years. Preferably an economist who understands how an economy works. Buhari is more concerned about what happens in "the other room"

Even though CBN came to the rescue by injection of forex into the economy, this solution although viable came a bit too late.

We need to constantly study our economy in anticipation of slumps and find a means of early detection instead of waiting till the problem arises to solve it.

We need to fund research and stop funding the excesses of our leaders. I mean, what does Nigeria need 36 states for? We are a small country where 10 states will suffice.

We need a total overhaul of Government!!!!!

Uncle, America has seen the threat. It is called foreign imports.
Trump said one word, "America First".
A leader needs to psych his people that " They" can DO IT.

Even though it is possible for American businesses to just cheaply import all their goods from China, Trump has seen that if this is done, all US businesses will go under, there would be massive unemployment and people would just start committing suicide or killing each other out of desperation.

Trump increased the import duty on foreign goods to discourage importation more. Let Americans make the things that Americans want and keep their economy economy active.

UK was so stupid to be allowing foreign import. Shey, they are struggling now. Now sef, they wan do Brexit to isolate themselves and get their feet again. (Is that not also saying UK first?!)
-
Nigeria is messing around. No matter the leader we have, if you keep that border open to foreign goods, we are all f***ked. People will commit more suicide, kidnap more and other BS that we have learnt to do .

HeyCorleone:
Of a truth this is quite disheartening.

What makes it all the more scary is that the future isn't any brighter.

Consider that our markets are full of imported products from China. China who sends us these goods, has work for its people. They are all actively engaged in producing something that they are selling to you in Nigeria.
-
Nigerians are not actively engaged in anything. A few are in offices, many others are just sitting in shops with different coloured plastics and cloth. Are they selling? Or just spending the whole day making noise and checking WhatsApp.
-
We are not producing anything that any foreign country wants. Not a damn thing.

And we are still not interested in producing anything that any foreign country wants. How won't the future be bleak?.

Boys here on NL can produce better graphics than this now.
I just don't get this art of a thing.
To all artist out there. ... May your work sell like this guy's work ... whatever criteria una dey use judge am.

Montez90:
you need to hear crazy question the interviewer was asking, like what church do you attend, which church activity do you engage in, for a management job

-
Uncle, go and pray.
-
If they are already asking you about church, they are either morally insecure (they do bad things) or are checking if you are morally insecure inept (do not give any f*** about good/bad, right/wrong).

Chuksmonika:
,no mind them,seriously some employees are just funny,15k that wont even be enough for me to get some good quality shirts and jeans

-
Employee is the person working and collecting salary.
Employer is the oga giving you the work.
-
....some employers are just funny... Is what you meant to say.
Unless you really are an incredibly funny Employee expecting Hummer Jeep salary.

psucc:
I think there is a problem fundamental to this country. If you look around, these are but deliberate acts to continue to make even workers poorer while they eat fat. Most of these shylocks got their appointment sometimes before graduating from school.

You are shooting yourself.
-
If the so called "Shylock" (abi?) got their appointment before graduating from school, eh! Why did you not get your own before graduating also? You waited till you finished.
-
That is why they now have the power to do you yeye.

Hardebaryor:
Ahhh....the two hours wey me dey use to read...oga oo

-
I actually pity this generation. I don't think it is your fault. In our time, there was no smart phone and no computer. There was nothing to distract us. No social media, no phone. Just only you and yourself. No TV sef. At least till 5pm when NTA would start with Voltron. After that, nothing interesting to watch again.

We could read, 4, 5, 6hrs without distractions.
I can bet you are the type that checks his phone every 10mins. Always buying credit, always replying WhatsApp.

What you need is to ditch the phone and face the book you are reading. I know it is not easy. But start now before that phone overpowers you and becomes your master.

Reading off smartphone screen is not the best way to read. It can give headaches.
Paper is always best.

Stupid question

Stupid answer.

It's important to balance your books well and pay yourself a salary. That's how you will know if your business is OK or just waste of time.
-
Treat yourself like a staff as well. In case you are tired and wish to handover daily duties to another person at least you will know exactly how much salary to pay such a person and you will know that you how viable (how long) you can keep paying that amount.

So even the agriculture they said will bring jobs to Nigeria...already future plans to wipe out even those jobs are already on ground. ..
..
Look, I just going to eat beans this afternoon and sleep. Nobody should wake me till 5pm.

Unfortunately this is the mind of the current youth.
I must get degree or else I will die.

Please goat, chicken and all animals have been surviving on this earth with only their inbuilt common sense.
When last did a chicken ask you to take it to hospital to do C-section before laying its egg? What of monkey? Lion nko? Do these animals ask you for anything to survive?
-
Why is your life tied to degree?

ifrosh:
Lets atleast applaud this man,some wont even look there.

Have you applauded the 10,000 people who did wonders today AND did not snap any picture of themselves doing the wonders?

Nonsense.

Endison:
Though the system has been bastardized by many rotten eggs and fake attention seekers, but Not every act by politicians can be assumed to be campaign method.
He's not the governor of the state, hence you dont expect him to undertake a project of that nature.
Methinks, he is only trying to help.

My take

Person cannot help quietly again?
You claim to be helping and yet, your picture ends up on front page of social media, with all your title, certificate and qualification? The holiest, humblest and most helpful man on the face of the earth.

Be careful of performing your good works before men.

Donopsiano:
When i saw his big head, i was very sure it was full of devilish and stupid ideas...

Is it not the same head he had since? Didn't they see the head when the were calling him pastor?
Should the head size not be checked first before ordaining someone as pastor?

If he ordained himself as pastor, then he is a f***ker. Nobody ordains themselves.
If a body ordained him, then blame the body for stupidity.

They say hindsight is 20/20 (When you look at the past, you see 100% clearly), but foresight is blurred.
Why not use experience of the past to guide your future? And stop repeating the same gaddem mistakes over and over AND OVER?

Appetizer:
OP stop calling this man a pastor.
he's a freaking rapist!!

So who is a pastor and who is not a pastor?
You call everybody Pastor. When they commit a crime, you say they are not pastor.

Is every one supposed to commit a crime first before you will know who is a pastor and who is not?
-
You have given the title "Pastor" lightly to just anybody carrying Bible.
-
There ought to be some rigorous process/study/prayer a person goes through before being "ordained" a pastor.
-
Plus... Wife/girlfriend does not go with such a position. The person should know he is 100% percent for Christ and stop F***ing around with women or ANY form of sex.

kingzjay:
God will still be God!

Government now meddling in the affairs of the church. Or was the church a government owned church?

Sheybe the people are under government? Shey they are Nigerians? And the church is located in Nigeria? And the Church killed the people.
That church should answer the government.

Bifrost:
But I thought the UK has relaxed it's laws with international students beginning this January with opportunities to stay back after graduation?

That's how Nigerians think.
"I thought, I thought".
Meanwhile Oyibos are ever ready to collect all the money you have. Sell your father's village and use the money for UK fees. They won't still give you job.

Everything the OP said EXACTLY happened me. UK MSc degree. No job there.
Returned to Nigeria looking for job up and down.

UnchangeableGod:
You are so right sir. How I wish many of our leaders will be humble enough to publicly admit their errors like this.

After admitting your errors publicly, please be prepared to face the consequence of the errors you have propagated publicly as well.

In the Bible, Jesus says, "if any one of you causes of these little ones to sin, it is better he have a mill stone (granite rock for grinding pepper) tied around his neck and then be thrown into the ocean (the stone will drag him down the water and die there), for I tell you, their Angels (guardian Angel of little children) are always before God (closest to God among all others).
-
To commit error is easy.
To pay back for The error you commuted is hard.

HeyCorleone:
That is why the white race would always be superior. They have this sense of dignity and shame that is quite alien to this clime.

This is a mere school security officer resigning for failure to perform his duties. That can never happen here. Even a police man can't try it. Resign? His premise would be "I no come this world come die". And it's quite sad. .

So many reasons to be ashamed of this country. Anyone who tells you they are proud is lying or insane.

So in your mind, you have accepted that you are inferior to another human being?
Have you ever sat down with yourself?

whizbee:
Everything must be taxed in Lagos... Ayam not understand

So far people continue to remain in Lagos, invest and build. The state will tax the hell out of you. They must chop their share from whatever is giving you money to remain in Lagos.

Charmerbeautylooks:
U must b very stupid. What if she is ur sister?

I think what the guy is trying to say is... It is complete nonsense for either Husband or Wife to claim custody of the child alone.
-
Couples should stop thinking about custody, settle their differences and live together.
-
One parent having custody over the other paret does not help the child.
The child will grow up bitter and murder either one or both parents. That child can never be normal again.
-
The child must find out the truth of the story. Bitterness will remain in his heart throughout his life.

Obituary: The death has been announced of a snake.
It was bitten by a man.
...It is survived by children snake, and grand children snake still inside egg.
-
Cremation will be done by the man.

There's nothing wrong with the man.
He gave the snake what the snake deserves.
Let other snakes learn from this.

--
I the man read NL website he will know what next to do with that snake.

Somebody caused wahala for you, and you went and killed yourself... Do you have sense?
The person that cause the wahala nko? He will continue eating meatpie while you have dead-died? You can't even guarantee that you will enter heaven?
If you don't enter heaven nko? You will commit another suicide?
Did you not hear Thou shalt not kill? Including yourself?

Unitedabby:
i'm a Christian but not a hypocritical one.Agreed the house of God shouldn't be poor but question is how many needy have we reached out to as a way of emulating Christ?!

Check out your church.

You heard of Missionary schools here in Nigeria abi? The school fees was cheep. Who built the schools and paid the teachers? Was money from your current Church?

These came from overseas. Members over there donated these monies for charity in "poor African countries".

Which members were these? What church was this?
-
Does your current church do anything for anyone?
Ask and find out. God will guide you along the way for the rest.

Sapiosexuality:
You are still making my point. There are foolish youths and foolish elders. There are both smart youths and smart elders. A youth is not the solution to our problems. The solution to our problem are people with sense and strong will to execute goodness.

Mandela was a youth. He was correct. The whites in South Africa were treating the blacks badly. But one cannot expect that hence ALL the blacks should kill off ALL the whites.
Thou shalt not kill
.
He spent 27 years in prison. Arrested for violence. But all the Whites knew he was correct.
But in 27years, he worked out a plan of how the blacks could get along with the Whites without violence.
He was president. He had a vision for his people. I hope that Ramaphosa and other Black presidents have a plan otherwise the whites will rule again and restore arpetheid.
-
Currently our youth have no plan for Nigeria except to eat meat and wear shoes.
That's why we keep having elderly corrupt politiciana ruining the system more.

bionixs:
but runs on bazaar ,compulsory levies ,dues collected from the families of indebted dead members before they are buried. Bishop,read your bible and not bulletin

His can't be ironed out here on NL. But here goes.
In Europe as you know, people don't dwell.much on village wealth. A rich person when they die, Wills all his wealth to whom ever he wishes. There's no "First Son" claiming property by right. So many wealthy persons quietly Will their property to the Church. The church quietly uses the wealth as required, ether for Charity, Missionary Schools (which we enjoyed here in Nigeria), or to build the church structure (all the church buildings are quite large and well built).
-
In Nigeria Obi and an Ada must collect their father's property when he dies by right. Uncle Odunga will collect his late brother's house, car and wife.
-
The church isn't seeing any money. Hence the need to start he Bazzaar of a thing to make money for the church. It all started well. But has now been bastadised by Nigerians.
-
If you believe that God is your father, what do you think about his church? How do you treat your fathers house? Unless you are quarrelling with your earthly father, I guess you know what to do.
-
However do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing. Do it quietly between you and God. So that your father who sees you in secret, rewards you in secret.
