EducationRe: What Do First Class Students Do That Others Dont? by Venerable612(m): 11:36am On Sep 29, 2020
SilverNorGold:
Yeah, some are geniuses, most are good "crammers"..

Most Nigerian lecturers prefer "garbage in, garbage out" ..

For instance, if you write "the man has arrived" in the exam but "the man is here" is in their lecture notes, you'll score 0... No mercy.. No room for creativity. grin
It depends on the course.

Some courses require you to think and be created - for instance, some modules taught under Philosophy, Law etc.

Some requires you to be able to replicate exactly the methods of arriving at a conclusion - e.g.some modules taught English, sciences, engineering and etc.

A students ability to distinguish both approaches is vital to making a First.

. The girls I deflowered kept coming back but I realized they did that though not necessarily because I deflowered them but because they felt I could be managed. It's a guy's responsibility to set the pace cos having something new to look up to excites an average girl
I am not Sure what you mean by setting the pace.

My thought is that people date each other out of practicality. It’s a relationship of advantages that a lot of folks do these days. Once they stop getting those advantages, they lose ‘love’.

Finding a person who genuinely loves without any attached consideration is quite difficult these days. I am so scared to fall in love let alone get married.


Also, Social media has made keeping a trustworthy relationship More difficult. You can just go through your gfs/spouses phone and see her flirting Nd sharing nudes with random guys on Instagram and whatsapp.


It’s all messed up men!

From day 1,I took the position of the provider, lover and defender. Anything she contributes is Jara. That way, I make her realize that a bird at hand is worth 2 in the bush
I like this strategy... but you probably will get hurt more if she falls out of love with you.


Wondering if it makes any sense to be the one to deflower a lady you are in love with while you are still both in love. How effective can that be in making her committed? Not withstanding that this goes against all moral and religious inclinations.

Mr Lukas. Covid-19 is a conspiracy. Yes the Virus exist. But those who have decided to put wools over our eyes are exaggerating the deaths. You might decide to be politically correct that's your choice. Do you know how much would be made from vaccines from a virus that was obviously man made? huh
ideology:
He definitely did not die of covid-19.

Its just a marketing strategy
Covid-19 is not a conspiracy.

From your comments, I take it you guys are learned.

I have witnessed two people that died of Covid-19 complications.

Because you are learned, I will explain, and hopefully you will understand better.

Covid-19 is a Cold virus, and virus by their nature are incurable. They would only go by themselves with defences from the immune system. It attacks the immune system, so that if an individual had underlying illnesses, he/she technically becomes defenceless.

The two people I know who died of Covid-19 complications died of;
1. Typhoid and Malaria complications
2. Unknown, as at times of death.

So if you are technically negative of Covid, you still need to take care of all underlying sicknesses.

Mind you, both people I mentioned above, were living on oxygen. It was an excruciating experience i will not like anyone to go through. I could feel their pains - day and night. I am still having a post-traumatic experience because of this.

Covid is really really real! Pls take precautions.

PS: I should as well add for the benefit of those reading this later.

This will be a good time to deal with all Blood, lungs or throat infections, including Malaria parasites and Typhoid bacteria in your system.

What I would do is go to your clinic, run a test and confirm your health status. Covid-19 will not severely affect a healthy person.

Take Immune boosting medications- Vitamin C, Multivitamins and Go full Veg.... meaning lots of Fruits, Vegetables and Ginger/Garlic/Lime or Lemon hot drink.

This will be in addition to using face mask and washing ur hands always whilst applying Hand sanitizers.


Please take precautions folks. I am not joking at all.

linearity:
Bros take a chill pile....

About 150,000 people died today world wide....more 90% of them were positive in their confessions and never wished to died.

The words from their mouth, their thoughts, etc was to live, but they still end up dead!

Now, if 90% who were positive end up dying, and only 10% who were negative died....by every scientific measures....it means, one stands the chance of survival if they are negative.

Am not in anyway saying that, been negative somehow makes one not to suddenly pass...am only bringing in stats to let you know that, the data did not back your conclusion....they even appear to contradict them.
Don’t be surprised that a number of the people that liked the guy’s comment also liked yours.

Thing is, there is no single truth. This thing called life is not cast in stones.

For example, there is no telling that more than half of the stats you stated died of negative thoughts. No one was in their mind.

Also, they couldn’t have All died of negative thoughts too.

It’s just perspectives - nothing more.

The reason the honda and toyota is so much in nigeria is cos its a good car. first rule of car purchase is buying whats much on the road. there is a reason why everyone keeps buying it, and for 500k max budget im seeing bride and heavy requirement in your search. u dont want to buy what everyone is using because you are too big to drive toyota or honda?? cars that aint so much on the road have limited car part. cos people in ladipo wont stock up their stores with parts that hard to sell. u need to rewire your logic about cars.
Very logical reasoning.

Hi anyone,

I am contemplating getting a Honda Civic 03/04 Nigerian used for a brother to use for Uber.

I understand Honda vehicles have hand issues. Is that also a problem with the Honda Civic?

Anyone who has used it should pls advise on the problems that are recurrent with that vehicle. I would appreciate your honest opinion.

Many thanks.

Well, these men never had influence on the common Nigerian. I'm sure he was able to have all that because of the way Nigeria was, but they all destroyed it for us.

Look at his profile and you would wonder if he wasn't born of a woman, yes he was, and he might even be from a poor family, there are many professors like that in UI

A time will come in this country, that we would do thesame thing the black Americans are doing for some statues in the US for some of our elders

A poor person would not be able to achieve what this man achieved in this age, not because he won't be brilliant but because he won't even have access to a good primary education

I do not like the old generation and have no respect for them because the destroyed the lifes of our generation. The old generation did not try at all

CrimeRe: Victoria Inyama To Anita Joseph: Marital Rape Exists, I've Experienced It by Venerable612(m): 2:02pm On Jun 15, 2020
Ignorance, that’s all I see with these online tantrums.

Rape is a crime. It is not subject to the whims and caprices of the people. It also has nothing to do with anyone’s opinion.

Rape is as defined in legislations and interpreted by the Courts. Nigerian Law doesn’t recognise marital rape.

UK law, however, does recognises marital rape... and that only became recognised in 1990; see the case of R v R (1991).

Nigerian law might get there someday but presently, no such thing as Marital rape - it doesn’t matter what anybody’s opinion on the matter is.

No course is overrated brother - it’s the Nigerian economy and system. A smart person will make a living with any course - if God helps him.

Please bro I need a confirmation, is Cowrywise and Afrinvest genuine brokers to invest your money on for mutual fund and treasury bills?
Hmmmm. That is tricky one.

I use Cowrywise, but I haven’t used their Mutual Funds product before.

In my experience, Cowrywise offered about 10% over my savings for 3 months - but it wasn’t so much about the interest for me - it was more about being able to lock my money so that I cant touch it, even if I really needed it. Principally, I would get my money back even if the interest was negligible. That was the catch for me.


So - in my opinion, you can use Cowrywise platform to invest on Afriinvest - if you can trust Cowrywise as a secure platform. I have not heard of any regret case from anyone - but I don’t know a lot of people who have used it either.

I guess it’s a risk you may have to take - but I will advise you start with an amount you can give away, not all your savings. But please consider the percentage on your return first. If they offer a great percentage - I think it’s worth a try.

1) What's the lowest amount someone can invest in mutual fund ?

100K, 200K or more .....?

2) please mention or tell us Mutual fund managers you know...

3) Do banks offer mutual fund services too
Hmmm. Okay, I am just a Finance Lawyer - and I have worked on Mutual Funds transactional documents prepared for Floating - but I don’t have personal experience/information on the most appropriate to invest in for an average citizen.

However, these articles by Cowrywise/nairametrics explains in detail your question above. Link below

https://cowrywise.com/blog/mutual-funds-in-nigeria/

https://nairametrics.com/2019/08/30/how-mutual-funds-work-in-nigeria-a-simple-guide/

The summary is that - the Prospectus of the Mutual Funds will state the minimum and maximum amount - typically N5000 upward.... but you would expect that a 100k investment should be fine for a person just testing the waters.

Yes many Banks have Investment arms operating MFs.

I also know of Chapel Hill Denham Management Funds - sometimes in real estate, dollar funds etc.

The dollar funds can be quite expensive and the minimum investment could be as high as $10,000.

So again, it depends on the terms in the Prospectus.

All these things make no sense to the ordinary man in the street.

We need to see an increment in our standard of living and not mutual funds.

I am just laughing at the way some boys are cashing out this year and most people (especially salary earners) are lamenting bitterly.

The feeling is mutually exclusive.
Ulunne777:
Someone should explain to us
Hi all,

There is no shame in not understanding. Let me help you guys understand.

Think of mutual funds as the three of you bringing your money together - and giving it to someone like Charles Soludo (Because the assumption is that Charles Soludo knows how to invest very well and Can make you guys a lot of money).

Charles Soludo, in this scenario, will be called the Fund Manager.

The funds that the three of you have contributed is called the Mutual Fund and Charles Soludo must make sure That he invests (In different Portfolios) according to the terms as agreed by all of you (investors) and this will depend on whether you want to invest in Shares, Government Bonds, Foreign dollar investment funds etc.

This is usually how rich people like Dangote, Otedola invest their money outside of doing business. But the average poor man in the street lacks all these financial information.

Now you know - the next tome you make your next 1 million - you may think about keeping your money with Mutual Funds and getting a return at the end of the year!
CrimeRe: Anita Joseph: "Your Husband Can't Rape You" - Actress Dismisses Marital Rape by Venerable612(m): 12:19am On Jun 15, 2020
flemsy15:
The last comment on d pic is correct, there's nothing like marital rape in Nigerian law, u can only sue Ur husband for physical abuse same as beating and there is also nothing like a woman raping a man in Nigerian law
You are correct by half.

It is not entirely true that Nigerian law doesn’t recognise a woman raping a man...

Section 1 of the Violence Against Persons (Prohibitions) Act - which, at the moment, only applies in the FCT - provides that rape could be committed through penetrating the anus and mouth. So if a woman forcefully inserts an object into the mouth or anus of a man, that could amount as rape.

What is not yet legally recognised is raping a man through the forceful insertion of his pinis in a lady, against his will. Many countries are yet to recognise that as rape as well.

Hopefully we will get there someday.

How can someone who is living outside Nigeria get across to the EFCC?

I have an experience of such and would like to take it further.

A little explanation of my ordeal.

In 2018, I lost my job and in the process of searching for something else, I met with this man who was doing well in his line of business.
He is a member of the same church I attend.
He suggested I join him in his biz pending when I find something else. He explained to me, the profit margin. I could earn about 80k in every 1M I invest monthly.

So, in January 2019, I gave him 1M and withing 2 weeks, he paid me the interest of 100K. With that, I reinvested. In February, I told him I shall be traveling by march so, I would need my money back. He promised my money will be ready before I leave. But, one week before I left, be told me the supplies he made has not been paid for by the company. That immediately they pay, he will remit the cash into my account.

That was how I travelled without my money because I trusted him as a fellow brother in church. Ever since then, it has been from one excuse to another. It took him 9 months to pay 600k. Sometimes, he paid in 50k per month.

Now, the money is remaining 400k and he has refused to pay. I involved the police through my friend. They promised to do something. But the man went and bribed them. That was how the case ended. The police said they can't go further because, it was not a fraud case but a business issue that can be resolved.

I am willing to give anyone 100-150k from the money if it can be recovered.

My brother in-law wanted to go beat him up but I refused because, he might die in the process.

Please, if you know how I can go about it, indicate. I can call you personally.

My money can't just go like that.
I am sorry for your loss bro.

But Nigerians that are reading this should be advised that the Police And EFCC have no power to recover debts.

Failure to repay overdue debts is a civil wrong and not a criminal act.

The Police and other security agents (I.e EFCC), therefore, have no power under the law to arrest, prosecute or to take any action against a person for failure to pay debts. See EFCC v Diamond banks & ors; see Mclaren v Jennings.

You can only involve the police or efcc if the money was obtained by Fraud, stealing or any other crime was committed!

Now - your best bet?
1. Write a letter of demand, if you haven’t got an agreement between both of yu.
2. Meet a lawyer for (1) above to assist with drafting and get a lawyer to follow through with court processes. It’s pretty much slam dunk for debt recoveries in the courts - but be sure that the person can cough out the money. No point wasting money on legal processes when the accused doesn’t have any money to give!
