Nothing beats seeing money you know you actually worked for. More blessings.

Looking like Wike has a say in who becomes the next president.

Let the campaigns begin already biko.

JASONjnr:
How will they recover the money from their debtors?


FG and their useless policies....


The loan companies aren't a bad option. But the percentage given is the problem.

How can you loan company 300k and will have to pay back 500k.. And when you can't pay it off... they begin to add to it... Why?

Anyway, I should've collected a loan before they blocked them.

The problem I actually have with them. A loan of 7k has reached 89k and still counting just cos a friend didn't pay on time. How will a person that can't pay 7k pay 89k?

etrouble:
Shebi the former SGF who used Millions to cut grasses is now your Spokesman, why you dey complain about this one?

Only in Naija.

18 Billion naira to clear bush?? And they can actually put this in their budget? Mehn I'm just week.

Madness everywhere.

Good morning All, kindly read and act.

THE FRIEND(SHIP) THAT SLOWLY DIED!

Today, I received some bad news,
About the passing on of a dear friend.
I feel ashamed to call my friend dear,
Because I saw my friend slowly die and I did nothing.

It began some time back, when I noticed my friend stopped smiling.
Though I noticed, I never asked what was wrong.
We live in a day and age of everyone minding their own business.
My friend's well being should be my business.

Then I noticed my friend disappearing online.
My friend stopped posting, was nowhere on social media.
I never bothered to ask why,
I was busy connecting with those who are active.

Then my friend stopped coming to worship,
We used to sit together during prayers.
I never followed up why the absence.
"I don't beg people to come to worship" I thought.

Then I started hearing stories about my friend,
In fact, I ganged up with others to gossip about my friend.
We gossiped as if we are experts of how my friend should live,
I gossiped, instead of reaching out.

When I scrolled through my phone book list,
I passed my friend's contact.
I waited for my friend to speak to me first,
Knowing very well my friend seemed to be going through something.

When my friend did call, I ignored.
I failed to reply the messages, too busy.
Or maybe I thought my friend was calling to ask me for money,
Based on the gossip I was told.

I used to pray for my friend,
But slowly I stopped.
It appears that out of sight,
Out of prayers.

Then today, I get to learn my friend has died.
My friend all along was struggling, feeling alone,
Yet all I did was nothing and make assumptions.
My friend was stressed, depressed then committed suicide.

Here I am asked to give a speech at the funeral,
Yet the tears I cry are for how I failed my friend when my friend was still living.
My friend is not coming back for me to love better,
Maybe if I cared things would have turned out different.

Look back and see the friends you have pushed away, ignored or taken for granted.
Call up that old friend, care for the one who has gone silent.
People are going through so many issues behind those fake smiles and glossy social media posts;
And all they need is a true friend.

Be a true friend !
Be a true companion!!
Before it is too late !!!

4. Each Time You Drive A Fancy Car, Somebody, Somewhere Is Dying In A Car Crash.

5. Each Time a New Mansion Springs Up From The Earth, A New Grave is Dug Below The Earth.

6. Each Time You Throw Away A Morsel, Somewhere, Somebody is Searching For a Morsel To Survive.

7. Each Time You Throw Food Into Dustbin, Someone Is Looking For Remnant To Eat.

8. Each Time You Ask God To Promote or Change Your Present Situation, Someone Is Praying to Get To Your Present Situation.

9. For Each Smile On The Planet, There's a Drop Of Tear In Another Place On The Planet.

10. For Each Celebration Of Childbirth, There Are Tears of Burial.

11. Each Time You Urinate Or Drink Water, Remember Someone Is Using Pipe For The Same Purpose.

Always be thankful. Use one minute to say:

Thank You Lord for counting me worthy to be among the living.
Happy Sunday Nairalanders.

Halleluyah!!!

Depression and frustration is killing people silently everyday.�
A problem shared with genuine and kind hearted people that will not make jest of you or gossip about your problem is a problem half way solved.
Don't wait till you hear of someone's death before you start pouring encomiums at their demise.
Remember...If you cannot solve other people's problems, please don't add to their pain!

Good moni all

A little bird was flying south for the winter. It was so cold the bird froze and fell to the ground into a large field. While he was lying there, a cow came by and dropped some dung on him. As the frozen bird lay there in the pile of cow dung, he began to realize how warm he was. The dung was actually thawing him out! He lay there all warm and happy, and soon began to sing for joy. A passing cat heard the bird singing and came to investigate. Following the sound, the cat discovered the bird under the pile of cow dung, and promptly dug him out and ate him.
Moral of the story:
1. Not everyone who shits on you is your enemy.
2. Not everyone who gets you out of shit is your friend.
3. And when you’re in deep shit, it’s best to keep your mouth shut.

Good night Nairalanders .

Nigeria is in a state of catalytic Destroyism. It is regrettably lugubrious that in a country with an Ex military man,the country has been returned to the state of Barbarism ecology ( me sef no know wetin I dey type oooo)

As we go for urgent 2k today, make God give us 20k

A young man saw his primary school teacher at a wedding ceremony.
He went to greet him with all respect and admiration!!

He said to him:
"Can you still recognize me Sir?'
'I don't think so!!', said the teacher, 'could you please remind me how we met?'

The student recounted:
"I was your student in the 3rd Grade, I stole a Wrist watch belonging to my then classmate because it was unique and fascinating.

My Classmate came to you crying that his Wrist Watch had been stolen and you ordered all Students in the class to stand on a straight line, facing the wall with our hands up and our eyes closed so you could check our pockets.

At this point, I became jittery and terrified of the outcome of the search. The shame I would face after other Students discovered that I stole the watch, the opinions my teachers would form about me, the thought of being named a ' thief' till I leave the School and my Parents' reaction when they get to know about my action.

All these thoughts flowing across my heart, when suddenly it was my turn to be checked. I felt your hand slipped into my pocket, brought out the Watch and dip a note into my pocket. The note read "stop stealing. God and man hates it. Stealing will embarrase you before God and man".

I was gripped with fear, expecting the worse to be announced. I was surprised I didn't hear anything, but Sir, you continued searching other students' pockets till you got to the last person.

When the search was over, you asked us to open our eyes and sit on our chairs. I was afraid to sit because I was thinking you will call me out soon after everyone was seated.

But to my amazement, you showed the watch to the class, gave it to the owner and you never mentioned the name of the one who stole the watch. You didn't say a word to me, and you never mentioned the story to anyone.

Throughout my stay in the school, no Teacher or Student knew what happened. This incident naturally taught me a great lesson and I resolved in my heart never to get myself involved in taking whatever is not mine.
I thought to myself, you saved my dignity."
"Do you remember the story now Sir? You can't simply forget this story Sir!!"

The teacher replied, ' I vividly remember the story that I found the Watch in a pocket but i did not know in whose pocket the stolen Watch was found that day because I searched your pockets while I also had my eyes closed."

In life, we need wisdom for everything we do. As parents, teachers, Pastors, leaders etc... *We should be able to close our eyes to some things. Not all misbehaviour require punishment. Some will need encouragement, some mentoring and some monitoring.*

*Be a teacher or leader who inspires, not one who shatters.*

everythinggirly:
Peter Obi is the real deal.

He knows his best position will be third and that's even if Kwankwaso don't leapfrog him .

Atiku is scheming
Tinubu is scheming
Obi is scheming
Kwankwaso is scheming
Even Bubu is scheming
In all these schemings, I just hope Nigeria wins in the end .

Who is this Hediot ?

Okiki22242:
Vote for another southerner and leave tinubu alone...we have southerner like Sowore,Kola abiola, Peter Obi...vote for anyy of them and leave Tinunbu with his Muslim Muslim ticket...its a democracy for christ sake

As simple as ABC . Lobatan

Seriously I will never be able to understand all these fuss about Tinubu's choice of VP. He must have helped make a decision for you lot so just go along with that. There's Obi and Atiku,even Sowore is there just shift and we'd see who wins in the end.

See this criminal, drug lord de call God

He for just show himself as the supercop he claimed to be . State pardon would have been very sure.

Nigeria is now officially a Zoo.

*Then the man looked at thief, smiled and replied "my lord you have fallen into the hands of Pontius Pilate again''. i will nail you tonight.*

Okowa did all this and didn't remember to pay pension money to primary school teachers that retired Since 2015. How did he expect them to survive? I don't want to join the political bashing group but you should advise your principal that pensioners are dying out of hunger. I know what my dad went through before he finally died last week.

Sorry for your loss. May his soul RIP.
