Crime / Re: After Robbing A House, They Gave The Husband Gun To Shoot The Wife; Guess What? by uvie66: 7:22pm On Mar 25
mbaise1000:
I am a Christian and so I will answer from the point of view of a Christian, we are not allowed to divorce our spouses except on the ground of adultery, and this is not adultery and even if we divorce on that ground we are not allowed to remarry except on certain condition which even encouraged is to forgive and take them back, this will only be for those of us who doesn't believe in divorce in the first place, we must accept that something has gone wrong in this relationship by the action of this woman which only God can correct, but I won't change who I am because the action of a woman or anyone for that matter, I will not forget that it's God who made it possible for me to still be alive.
Second question a TRUE Christian will most likely do follow my way of looking at this,
Third, a none Christian will not follow my, the advice of a TRUE Christian, that's what made us different but if they will, my answer is there ALREADY

Something about the universe is the interesting way it uses karma to visit people when they least expected it.

You made this statement, someone somewhere reads it here on nairaland and gets motivated to get rich in whatever means.. The person decided to try out yahoo plus. Baba tell him to bring a girl for rituals, the boy kidnaps a girl who happens to be your sister.
Now you begin to cry, but you forgot the chain of action started from you and from the very stupid and idiotic statement you made carelessly .

Or what if the boy goes into kidnapping, arm robbery and you happen to be his first victim or someone very dear to you. Please remember you once made this statement!
i concur, if everyone was a kidnapper, i wonder who will be left to kidnap.

Very smart people who know how to use others to make their country work.

How many companies can pay N100,000 per month to it's workers in the current economic climate?

Even the Federal government and State govts are still heavily struggling to meet up with N30,000 minimum wage. Many staff have not yet been paid their full arrears till now.

The seller probably got a better offer while the buyer was away. He just wants the buyer to either pay or ask for a refund if the new price is not okay with him. I don't see any wrong doing. Buyer should ask for a refund if not happy
sharrap there, the buyer paid, and seller accepted the money which automatically created a contract. The doors now automatically belong to the buyer.

Family / Re: Help! My Marriage Is Giving Me Pain. by uvie66: 3:17pm On Mar 04
AkporsMechanical:
I promise to be very brief.
My wife and I live in a three bedroom flat without paying rent, although we only occupy one room since we don't have much property yet. The owner of the house abandoned the house before now and when we had accomodation issue asked us to stay there. We have been here since last year. However, there is no Geepee tank to supply water into the house. We could only pump water into our little drum when there is light. So I always go fetch water from the neighbouring compounds whenever there is no light which have resulted into several insults. My wife has been dragging me that I must buy a Geepee tank.

My salary as a private school teacher is barely enough to feed us talk more of saving to buy a Geepee tank especially in this economic crisis. In the midst of all these, my wife's phone went bad and needed a new one Just this afternoon, my wife started raining insults on me that I am not behaving like a man at all, that I should have settled down fully before thinking of marriage, that I want to make her go hungry. This was because I told her I would cut off some part of my salary to be saving so I can buy curtain for our room, television and save for Geepee tank. She even went ahead to say I am poor and wretched just because I can't afford her a new phone for now.

Since afternoon, I have refused to eat. My problem here is that my parents love my wife and my parents are far from where I reside. And I don't want to report my wife to my parents so it won't bring disrespect later to her in the future. Secondly, as the first born of my parent,I don't know how my parents will take it if I tell them I don't want to marry her again so they don't have b.p. I am really really confused. The little extra money I get from extra tutorial is what I do send to my two siblings in school even though is very little compare to their needs but at least it is something.

I feel like running away but to where? I truly love my wife but she is regretting marrying me. Please what can I do?

Politics / Re: Hardship: Nigerians Are In Pains And Frustration. My Experience This Morning. by uvie66: 12:43am On Mar 02
Seezion:
Nigeria is already known as one of the poorest countries in the world but i believe the duty of governments of the country (if they are sincere to themselves) is to work to change the status and not to make policies that deepened the poverty situation.

Whether anybody likes it or not, the policies taken by this government which is responsible for the hardship Nigerians are currently going through would only render more Nigerians poor and poorer.

In a country where unemployment/underemployment is so high, people are struggling to even feed and survive. A very good example is myself. I am underemployed, that is to say my salary is poor and nothing to write home about. Not as though i'm happy about this as i am still looking for better opportunities.

Of truth, only N600 was left with me yesterday. I couldn't afford to have dinner and so i slept empty stomach that yesterday. There's this woman selling bread near a bakery along the road i pass to work. Her price is considered the cheapest, so many people buy from her. My plan was to use the N600 to buy bread from there, which i can manage throughout the day or even till tomorrow, hopefully miracle can happen and another money enters my hand.

As i went there this morning, the N600 bread is now N800. No surprise about that at all, knowing the country we are living in today. This spoilt the plan and i was confused, disturbed and broken down. I stood there for over 5 mins hopelessly, with hunger and anger in me.

That small time, one elderly woman in the shop was sobbing. I later realized she started crying after she couldn't afford the current price of rice. Another guy came and asked for a pack of indomie and was told N1000. He sighed bitterly and left. Then i saw another two guys who came to the shop, joined their money together (400+400) and bought the N800 bread and divided it into two, for each.

That was a nice decision though even though it would reduce the quantity, but as i didnt see someone to join too, i left the place to work without buying the bread.

Any alternatives for me?

There's absolutely no alternative for since everything is on the high side. I could have opted for rice and beans, but i wont know when i will start crying after mamaput has dished the quantity for me. Surely it will be small. So i decided not to go near there. What about Garri and soup? I dont know for everywhere but i can tell you, there's mow where i could find a plate of Garri and soup for N600. Even if there is, i would still cry over the quantity. What about noodles that used to do 'rescue mission'? Well, i just told you a pack is now N1000, when i had only N600 with me. What of biscuit? I refused to "waste" my last money on something that would not last me the next 1 hour after i have eaten. Akara? Have you seen the sizes of Akara in recent? N100 own looks very small, so i still decided not to buy.

At the end, all options failed. Till this minute, nothing has entered my stomach and i'm still holding tight to my N600. Yes i am hungry and weak but the N600 must be for something that can keep me for a while, hopefully another money would come my way before i am hungry again.

Sadly, my in quote "salary" is still far, till Thursday next week, but i have to survive however it is.

It's a very tough time for most of us Nigerians right now.

Lastly, government should know that
most Nigerians are not asking for luxury, just basic things made affordable for survival and food is obviously not affordable to many Nigerians today. Please government should do something about food crisis in the country.

May God help us, the common citizens.
drop your ankle number and i will give you 10k straight away.

not possible. CBN can sell to them at 1250 and warn them to sell at 1350 and they will say yesah but if the demand gets much they will start selling 1850 . CBN will not sit down in all the bdc shops in Nigeria to see what they are selling, already happened under buhari and failed
....but they can also create an artificial demand by hoarding.... the name of the game is profit maximization. The BDC operators are not a welfare organization.

By the time they increase their capital base to 1 billion naira, many of the BDCs will close shop and it will become easier for the CBN to monitor their activities.
....we all know the incompetence that is pervasive in the CBN, weren't the banks selling dollars through the back door, where they sanctioned by the CBN?
Isn't it the same CBN that couldn't carry out its own audit for over nine years. One thing we have to understand is that the CBN is just a name it is the people that occupy the building that matters, it is an open secret that most of the staff were not recruited on merit but based on connections, so what type of quality of work do we expect. It is like the computer parlance that we all know, garbage in garbage out.

When importers particularly petroleum dealers including dangote go to get dollars from banks and meets shortage they resort to the black market as the last hope. What it means is ….simple economics demand outweighing supplies will definitely create scarcity and higher prices
...so can the CBN possibly peg the rate at 1350 ?
