Family › Re: Over Borrowing By Neighbors by Walai(m): 4:59pm On Oct 22 |
My no 1 golden rule that always works, bring out 5k or any little money you can part with for them, if they ask you to borrow them money, don't give more than the 5k, I'm 90% sure this kind of people will not pay back and they won't bother to come ask for money or anything again because they are owing you. Worked everytime with this kind of borrow borrow folks TheMensch: Op your problem is a small challenge. I know those kind of people. Tomorrow very early morning, go to her door, knock and ask her to borrow you her cream and perfume that your own has finished. Anyhow she reacts, do the same to her next time. If she gives you, carry it to your room. Even if she doesn't give you, go again in the evening and ask for another thing like power bank or charger. Ask for crayfish, soap, bucket and the kinds of things she borrows from you. Keep asking her things for three weeks straight, morning and evening. Watch what happens from there it. Don't quarrel your sister. Anyhow they react, just politely tell your sister that they won't reciprocate |

Nothing really dey this life. If I get excess money na to just raise at least 100 multi-millionaires from the scratch,they will tell your stories to their children and grandchildren more. The children you are leaving everything for may not even bother to come back to Nigeria cos they are used to abroad life and already citizens there. You will see a well built mansion full of grass and rottening cars belonging to the dead owners who are resting in one grave somewhere in the compound. The children are no where to be found. |

Forget all these long epistle, Nigeria have not reached the level where government care for the elderly like in civilized countries not even in the next 300 years. Ordinary to pay pension and gratuity na problem. Get children and invest in them to take care of you in old age, if not you go regret. epainos: I am not against any child taking care of his/her parents; however, we are misplacing priorities. This mentality is what made China his over 1B population, and its affecting India too. And then, China's one child policy in those days was too brutal, and it is affecting them again in that the young population is low. So, there must be a balance.
What I see here on this thread (especially commments above mine) is a nation about to collapse because its people has refused to develop the healthcare. Elderly care is one of the main priorities in healthcare, but Nigeria has zero provision. So, most people rely on their kids. The dad story is that they dont even know. Laying emphasis that one must have children (not even a child or 2) is compulsory. Why? Old age insurance. This is wrong.
Lets be realistic here. Taking care of the old is not an obligation, but taking care of kids you brought to this world is, until they turn 18. This is the law.
Now, lets talk of the blessing in it. According to the Bible and many other religious books, there is a blessing in it, and it is true. Even when the system takes in the elderly, I know some kind kids who went extra miles to take care of them. Some of them refused to let them use the public provision. So, it is an advise to take care of the old but not an obligation.
Now, when you decide to invest in yours so they care care of you during old age is a bad investment. I read about investing in kids. Kids are not assets we invest in. We are obliged to raise them well, and not invest in them. I see this mindset everywhere. So, when the kids did not reciprocate the investment, parents start complaining. If you dont take care of your kids until they are 18, they will take them from you in developed nations which is how it should be. I am ao sorry for you if you are among those who have thing mentality of investing in children so they can take care of you later. You invest well so you can take care of yourself at least financially. Finance is the main thing. Train them well to be kind and not be thieves. And have your money. When you grow old, they will use tour money and add theirs to take care of you. But when you ask them to care for you permanently, you are wicked. You took care of their needs for max of 25 - 30. Some didnt even do it up to 18 years. Yet, you want them to be funding your needs immediately they start working. You want the first born to take care of your responsibilities and start funding the younger ones. You are wicked. Yes, you are. You invested in the boy or girl for just 24 years, and you expect him to carry the burden of 6 other ones you gave birth to for like 10 years. And then take care of you from like 45 years to 90 year. A solid 30+ years. Mainwhile your care is so expensive. Why? Its when the kid is a baby you spend, but as soon as he is 6+ years, level don change. Everything is management. But its only education. See, what you will collect from that kid is more.
So, your thought is that let me have 10 kids so they can share the bill. Lol. This is how we got to 300M population. Now, these kids cant find jobs. Our GPD is not bad, but check out our GDP per Capita. We are too many. Those who are criticising Tinubu will criticise Obi or Atiku or Sowore because we are just too many and no matter how good our economy is, it will take time for everyone to feel the development. This is a story for another time.
So, lets change our perspective. We need to fight for a good health system which includes the old and people with disabilities. We dont care for these two groups. This is extremely bad.
Goodluck to everyone. |

His statement is correct provided that there is electricity and stable internet connection and people with the funds to subscribe to that internet and stream videos non stop

Business › Re: Nigergrob Ceramics Ogun:What I Found In An Abandoned Factory Established In 1974 by Walai(m): 8:11pm On Jul 08 |
Wow! This is a real case study, thanks for this, I was about researching what happened to the company SixSeven: Exactly what came to my mind. I am just surprised by the OP saying the 1993 person is that old 
Nigergrob Ceramics Limited was a notable ceramic manufacturing industry located in Abeokuta, Ogun State, Nigeria. Established in the 1980s, the company became the subject of major Nigerian corporate and legal cases, including a landmark receivership case (U.B.A. Trustees Ltd v. Nigergrob Ceramics Ltd) regarding the extent of receiver and director powers. Financial distress and that litigation eventually led to its closure, turning it into a textbook legal authority for Nigerian corporate insolvency frameworks under the Companies and Allied Matters Act (CAMA).
Story of their death: In the early 1980s, Nigeria was trying hard to build up its local industries. A company called Nigergrob Ceramics built a big factory in Abeokuta, Ogun State. Their plan was to make floor tiles, wall tiles, and bathroom sinks locally because the construction business was booming. To buy all their heavy machinery and set up the factory, they borrowed a huge amount of money from United Bank for Africa. The bank managed this loan through U.B.A. Trustees Limited. As security for the loan, Nigergrob signed a contract that gave the bank the right to seize the factory and all its equipment if they failed to pay the money back.
Everything started well, but the late 1980s and 1990s brought tough economic times. The national power grid became very unreliable. Ceramic factories need their ovens to run constantly, so Nigergrob had to spend a lot of money on diesel generators. At the same time, the cost of raw materials went up, and they could not find local technicians to fix their complex machines. Production stopped, and the company completely ran out of money. Since Nigergrob could not pay back its debt, U.B.A. Trustees stepped in, locked the factory gates, and hired a legal manager called a receiver to take over everything and sell it off to get the bank's money back.
The original owners and directors of Nigergrob refused to leave quietly. They took the bank to court, arguing that the bank had no right to strip them of their authority. This became a famous legal battle called U.B.A. Trustees Ltd v. Nigergrob Ceramics Ltd. The case went all the way to the Court of Appeal. The judges finally ruled that when a bank takes over a broke company, the bank's manager gets full control of the business and the assets, but the original directors still keep a few basic rights, like the power to fight the takeover in court. Sadly, while the lawyers argued for years, the expensive factory equipment just sat there and rusted. Nigergrob never reopened, and the factory in Abeokuta remains abandoned to this day. Nigergrob Ceramics died because the bank seized their factory over unpaid debts, while severe power outages and a crashing Naira made manufacturing too expensive to survive. |
