Congratulations PDP, I guess Sheriff is the better candidate. But on a serious note... Does it mean that Obidients and LP was just about Peter Obi? Or is the wave coming to an end?


That aside, Igbos should be calming down. They talk too much. They reveal too much! We should learn to talk 'sooooo' much less! STFU, and keep your opponent guessing. JEEZ!!! I hope we have learnt a lot from this Election sha...

South-south people should also now understand that we have been divided and conquered. I hope you guys enjoyed the stray bullets you received when Igbos were being bashed. If Afikpo people, Abakaliki and Nsukka people can be called Igbos, I don't understand why someone from Aniocha, Rumuru, etc, people with Ikechukwu, Emeka, etc as names, would say they are not Igbos! Your Igbo is even easier to understand than Nsukka Igbo!

We have been divided! It's up to us to unite ourselves. Else, we will remain conquered.

Best wishes my people...

This their picture look like pre-wedding shoot... They actually look good together

For starters, Mathematics or Statistics is the first skill; preferably, 1st Degree.

I don't know if you will see yhis reply, but I hope you do.

You said he comes to eat daily in your house? Reduce how often you cook. Let's say you normally cook what you will eat for 2-3 days... Try to cook noodles that will only last a meal. Don't cook stew, rice, soup, etc... Just a daily food portion at a time.

If he asks what's up that there's no food, tell him that things are a bit rough for you right now. Give him #150 to buy his owm noodles to cook.

Tomorrow, eat out before returning home. You could buy noodles to be cooked late in the night (when he has gone back to his place). By the time you do this for like a week, he will reduce the way he comes to your house (if he is a fake friend or if he just wants to leach on you).

Thirdly, you should also go to his house (before he comes to yours, behave the exact same way he behaves in your house. Listen to what he says, watch his body language, see what he does, etc... And act accordingly.

Finally, call him in advance and tell him you're expecting a visitor, that you will need some privacy this period... Invite your gf ar a trusted female friend to come stay with you all day. Bring different chics for like 3-5 days. He'll find another hobby and leave your house alone.

However, if after telling him you have some financial difficulty he keeps coming to see you, support you to buy food or brings food from his place (no matter how poor the food is), encourage you and tell you say e go better, etc (you know those things good friends say and do), please feed him and feed him well. He's a true friend

Garri is loved by everybody because it's cheap, satiable and takes few minutes to prepare and consume.

Try ijebu garri

Truvelisback:
It has been underrated. For example: A guy or lady may boldly and stylishly carry a loaf of bread or 2 packs indomie noodles or some eggs abt but if it is garri, he may not do so. Even if he wants to, he would triple the Celophene or even fourple it, so that no one would notice.

Lol... You don't even know. I went to Bakan gizo to buy garri. See ehhhnnn, the way I proudly carried d garri, you fit come beg me to fetch small for you. 2kg Ijebu garri that I bought for 2,500 Shame no fit catch me mbok

Tell them you are sorry, but you will not accept the job offer for that payment. Name your price, and tell them to contact you if they are willing to talk about it. Send you regards, and gonfor other interviews. Don't sell yourself cheap

If you are in Abuja, I could pay you same to teach me some basics. I mean, personal tutor. Lemme see if I can add some skills, you know

VillagePipu:
Politicians bring 50M old notes, manager takes it and gives them 49M old notes. Manager takes 1M.

Depending on how old the 50m is, the manager can take like 2-5m for himself. Now sef, they give them 2-5m of the new currency per batch. What happened to the money we are changing now will still happen to the new notes. The only good thing here is that politicians will not have enough to use for elections

Felabrity:
These corrupt politicians can cry from now till tomorrow, Buhari will not move a dime

The banks are our main problems. I went to do a job some days back, and I was paid cash... 230k!!! I thought my bank details will be requested for. The madam just came forom inside, and gave me 2 bundles and some extra notes. I didn't even count it. My question is... Where did she get that amount of new notes? For her to give me that amount, it means she has more for her other needs.

Mustiboy:
There’s no way the deadline wouldn’t be extended.

The old notes are still very much in circulation, and there’s no way banks will take them all in 4 days.

E go too shock you. For the records, Buhari is the one orchestrating this whole currency brouhaha

MajorOvakporaye:
Baba wey no well...

E de shout emilokan😛😛😛

Warefa! Patriotic Nigerians have decided to wrest power off the APC. A new Nigeria is Possible, if we vote wisely.

Not again! Whatever their game plans are, patriotic Nigerians will twart them all, by God! Bunch of no gooders😡😡😡

Get sniper mix with kerosin and use and use it around yr environment

Mix it with water, you get better results. All those chemicals are meant to be mixed with water. You'll see Sniper written 1000EC, it means emulsifiable concentrate. You mix it with one part of sniper to a thousand part of water. But Naija insects and mosquitoes don't have respect for many chemicals so we use sniper as a 200-300EC😥😥😥.

Put 3-5 caps of snipper into a 75cl eva water bottle, and fill up with water. Shake well, and then perforate the cap of the mixture.... Use this as an improvised sprayer. Spray your room in the morning when going to work; by the timpe you return, all those morafockers should have died. Do it 2-3 times in a week, and you might not experience mosque-men bite you again.

I saw the real pic

I just came back from the market now. See all I bought for Fifteen thousand naira.

I know you're lying, but I love your floor tiles.

Zonefree:
Wow. Unbelievable

So, we still have sensible ladies here

Your brother's wife is a great woman. She got my total respect. Other ladies would have been saving to buy wigs or weavon to put on an empty head that can't recite the 36 states and capitals.

God bless your brother's wife and the family.

Bros, we have some very sensible women on this forum. They just don't talk at all. Many of them just don't have an account

I was craving some watermelon yesterday, so I went to buy a one. Malam said the big one I wanted was #1,500 last. Ahhhh... but I don't want to pay that much na. He said the next size which I pointed was 1,000 last. I was sad, very pained when I was paying.

So today, I decided to eat watermelon till I fall out of love with it. I went to fruit market, and bought

11 watermelons... #250 each!
14 Pawpaws of different sizes
20 Pineapples, different sizes and prices
2 bunches of Plantain #2,300

Finally, local man spent less than #11,500 to make my home feel and smell like I'm in some tropical rain forest. Next weekend, I'm going for more fruits again

We're blending and juicing them all tomorrow. I must develop dislike for all those fruits by force.

Mstravelindiva:
Enjoyed Aso Rock and a view of the mosque!

Guards brigade polo... You should have gone on a Saturday to enjoy some games

mariahAngel:
Nne ehn!
You can sabi hype me. Hahahahahaha

I'll share one easy chocolate cake recipe soon. Very easy.

Happy Sunday.

I kuku know where to buy the chocolate and breadcrumbs. Jeez... We'll be waiting for your recipe

mariahAngel:
This one looks good.

It actually tastes better than it looks. I'll notify you in my next bake... I wan stop to de buy cakes for routine consumption

gloryhomemaker:
You did well for the first time, the challenge is that the cake didn't rise well enough.

I got concerned when I saw oil and butter together, both won't help the cake rise well.

Then what's the quantity of liquid milk added?
That also might have contributed.

Another factor is the heat of the oven.
If it's too hot, it will dry up before the batter gets the opportunity to rise.

Personally, my oven has different temperature for different things even when set at the same level. For example if you turn the knob to 150 for baking, it's not the same temperature with 150 for grilling meat. So the heat needs to be at the right temperature.
To help me with that, I prefer using the pot tightly closed and bake at low heat.

Another issue could be the measurements, if things are not measured rightly it will affect the cake.

Did you sift the flour?
Sifting the flour helps break in the flour molecules and helps it rise in the oven.

One last thing I learnt in pastries was not to use long stored flour in anything that should rise except Chin chin.
Anytime I want to bake, I buy the quantity of flour I need that I don't have to store.

Thank you for your efforts. It will still taste nice but not fluffy.

So many lessons. It's been over a year I baked, so it felt like I was learning afresh. I'll try to bake more often.

That oil plus butter... I'll jejely just pick one.

Milk, I used 1 cup

Flour was sifted,, but I didn't sift the baking powder. I thought there was no need for it.

I used electric oven, and both the top and bottom heating elements were on... So the cake was getting heat from top and bottom. I did 180° or so for 35mins. I'll try just the bottom heat elements for my next bake, at 180°... Lemme see how it goes.

Thanks for the review, it really feels good cooking for the family. One of my boys has been singing my praises, he called his uncle who came visiting... His words "Uncle come, my daddy baked cake for us". Omo.... My heard swell small. I'll remember to keep getting better. Thanks again

mariahAngel:
Did you measure the ingredients correctly?
The first rule to baking a (near) perfect cake is measuring the ingredients correctly.

You tried though.

My measurements were okay. I think the oven heat was too high, and I left it for a bit too long.


Madam said the butter I added distorted my measurements; well, I shouldn't have added bitter. Lessons taken... I'll do way better next time

Cake is ready, and I got just what I wanted

Sorry gloryhomemaker, I couldn't cope with the pot; I didn't know how to cope with the low heat. So, I took the pan and transferred it to the oven instead. I reduced the heat this time to 150° from 170° I used the first time

Frawdboiy:
Ok sir. Godspeed sir .

If you dey Abuja, I fit buy you cake for market square tomorrow, make we shame that verywickedgoat wey wan laugh us

VeryWickedGoat:

Mariahangel, gloryhomemaker


170° for 35mins
Oven was preheated for 10mins before the pan was introduced
