Moving the USA to more conservative society

There are over 1miliion Africans over there and i wonder what the future holds for those still unemployed

I guess this wouldnt affect international staffs of a U.S company working remotely from their countries

seunmsg:
The same Pastor Kumoye Peter Obi and his gang of Obidient mobsters attempted to cancel because he did not support the Gbajue candidate. I won’t be surprised if the hypocritical Peter Obi rushes to Twitter to start praising the pastor like they are some kind of cool buddies.

Tjra:
I keep saying this. Only 25% of Igbos are actually Igbo by blood.

The remaining 75% were trafficked at birth.

45% are stolen Fulani babies (which is why most are fair) while the remaining 30% are Yoruba babies.

Ironically, the two tribes are those they hate the most.

How do you explain almost all my Igbo friends having same conehead shape as me?

Bobodee09:
I haven't tasted alcohol since last year oct till date.
Not that I can't buy it but I just don't know why I just lost interest in it totally.

It been more than 2yrs I stopped taking beer but until last October I always have striker bitters in packs in my fridge.
Even last week my first daughter ask why I no dey take striker again....lol just told her have Giving my life to Jesus again.

I think I will get the drug sha cos my family has history of high BP.

Bobodee09:
Is so bad that has a married man you can't even buy yourself new wears.

Throughout last year I couldn't get myself a new set of jeans trouser even tho I needed it badly despite having the money.
All the money I made last year 90% when into paying bills and household expenses.
It so crazy how you has a man you will have over 200k in your acc and you be scared to even buy yourself something of 10k cos of fear of the unknown.
In all of this my wife and kids still has many clothes they haven't worn I paid for you.

Last weekend my wife bought herself over 10 new shirt and when I saw it I reminded her how I couldn't even buy myself new jean....she told me nah me no wan buy nah.
It really hurt me cos whatever money I make the family expenses come first before my own personal needs but it isn't same for women.

I just feel marriage is design for men to suffer honestly.
People just taking from you and no one really care about what you need.

Regex:
I have one goal in life: that is to disassociate myself and lineage from any and everything that has to do with Nigeria. We lack self respect, self dignity and self esteem. Is this supposed to make the news?

What sorta rubbish is this?

Raalsalghul can you imagine this?

Biodun556:
If you want to become king you must have money. No need of pretending

When Ooni was about to be selected, the king makers made it known in the media that contestants must must be rich

You can't be contesting for the stool of Alaafin and don't want to spend

No pretence

Biodun556:
So Makinde is not corrupt? He didn't pay political thugs and godfathers before he became governor?

haybhi1:
Lol... ....

Biodun556:
If the governor has candidate, he should have invited the king makers and reach compromise with them.

Whether the king makers receive money or not is nobody's business after all Seyi Makinde himself knows how much he spent before he became governor.

King installation happens ones in a while sometimes 50 years interval. So charging money is not a crime. It is their office.

EmperorCaesar:

No indiscriminate chatter, spradix shooting of gun or some criminal protests. Just a legal battle to resolve a tough dispute

Civility x 1000


Either ways, I'm surprised the Gov really sidelined the Oyomesi in a process as sacred as this

Edit - That is FFK's father.

The President has reintroduced history in schools and made it compulsory, so shall we talk history?.
The irony is that those people who struck FIRST without any provocation are the ones crying to be the victims today.

Kog45:
Just go to Nottingham forest and read about Awoniyi the man that saved Nottingham from relegation and scored brace against Arsenal, Liverpool,man Utd and Chelsea

haybhi1:
Lol... Nott'ham forest has three Nigerian players Taiwo Awoniyi, Ola Aina and Andrew Omobamidele. Yorubas too plenty for epl

But Awoniyi, on his day, is so good. Na injury be hin problem

northbird:
Learn from this.

You can never go wrong from being a grateful and thankful person. It's imbibed in some cultures.
Infact, where I come from, if someone gives you something, you thank the person. The following day, you will still thank the person for the gift he gave you yesterday.

Doors will always be open for anyone full of gratitude. Let's learn not to take things for granted.

concho:
His tale doth intrigue me in its detail, for it speaketh of one who encountered the favor of fortune in the blackest of nights, yet allowed her to slip from his grasp as though she were but a fleeting shadow.

It bringeth to mind mine own tale of Abuchi, the man who promised to marry my sister. To me, it seemed as though the goddess of good fortune had smiled upon me and laid her gentle blessings at my feet. Yet, I knew not that this potential gifts were but fleeting, like a morning mist that vanisheth before the rising sun.

I had not known Abuchi dwelt within our neighborhood until fate revealed him. It began one evening as I saw him speak with my sister, their conversation flowing freely under the cover of night, for my father was away on duty. As their discourse unfolded, Abuchi beckoned me to his side and pressed into my palm two notes of five hundred naira each. Without words, I understood it to be a bribe, a token to silence my tongue.

Before he departed, he called me aside and spoke thus: “Thy sister hath told me of thy lack of work. Fear not, for I shall bestow upon thee the sum of one million naira to establish thyself.”

That night was the gladdest of my life. The promise of wealth danced before my eyes, and I dreamt of a future filled with prosperity. At dawn, I took my humble savings of thirty-five thousand naira to the market, for what use was a savings chest when untold riches awaited me? I purchased two pairs of fine jeans, a shirt, and a pair of sandals fit for a prince.

As I returned home, I walked with the gait of one who carried the favor of kings. Along the way, beggars lined my path, their hands outstretched in supplication. Out of my newfound confidence, I cast my remaining cash into their baskets, for was I not soon to be a man of wealth? When I saw my friend Musa, to whom I owed three hundred and fifty naira for a bag of water purchased a week prior, I gave him five hundred naira and bade him keep the change. His grateful smile was a welcome sight.

With but one thousand naira remaining for my journey, I set forth to meet Abuchi, the man who had promised to set me on the path to prosperity. Yet, as I entered my home, I found my sister weeping bitterly. At first, I thought she had lost her phone, as was her habit, but upon inquiry, her words struck me like the blow of a hammer.

“Abuchi hath been arrested,” she cried, “for his part in an armed robbery.”

In that moment, the riches I had dreamt of crumbled into dust. My savings were gone, the promise of one million naira naught but an empty illusion. It pained me deeply, yet such is life. We stumble, we fall, but we must rise and carry on, for fortune is fickle and not always kind.

Chukwumagordian:
Everyone in Nigeria is looking for ways to cheat the other... Why are we like this?

A cook is stealing ingredients from the kitchen

A driver is buying half tank and reporting full tank

People working in the poultry are stealing eggs

Accountants are changing figures

People working in supermarkets are stealing

Teachers and lecturers are stealing from students

Girlfriends are stealing from boyfriends

Wives are stealing from their husbandd

Even church is not exempted... Once you get a position in a church, it's always an opportunity to steal...

Where exactly will Tinubu start to fight corruption?😂 😂

Mathewrichard99:
You are right but require my friend to go to court and get a warrant for that to happen but you know Nigeria situation, it's just 36k. If he goes to court to get the warrant, he would spend so much money to get it done. The money was meant to pay for grocery and the seller hurriedly called his account number but a wrong account number but the name coincidentally similar. See the attachment below... Christian Nwachukwu something and the other name Christian something Chukwu too, the only difference was the English name, so much similarities in the two accounts, I even suspected it's a scam by the grocery seller ....also the account number very similar, just a number or two makes it different.....the grocery seller said it has happened before to him, when he gave account number out and the buyer mistakenly input a wrong number and such happened. My friend wanted to deal with the grocery seller but he claimed he called the correct number for my friend...that's how the money went o....

Mathewrichard99:
I like your question. How did the sender get your number. 😂 That's what first came to my mind but the time I read your contribution, I said no need to ask again......

Anyway, no harm as long as it's from the same person's account name you are sending it back to......Please send it.....

A friend mistakenly sent money to a wrong account....a palmpay account from Moniepoint since almost 5months ago.

He rushed to his bank with a letter of retriever and the bank promised to work on it. They did with the collaboration of Palmpay but discovered that there's no single fund in the person's account again. He withdrew that money very fast and abandoned the account.

However, there's something I learnt from him while he was explaining to me when it happened and after going to report at the bank. The refund of that money is still at the discretion of the receiver even though it's wrongly sent to the receiver's account. The only action the receiving bank can take is to put PND on the account to avoid withdrawal if the money is still inside or there is enough balance to pay the sender. The receiver's bank must still seek and appeal to you to return the money back to the sender.....


This is outrageous. The money my friend sent mistakenly was 36k to a wrong palm pay account from Moniepoint.

See the screenshot of the whole drama below.....

BoldBrainz:
Half of the people mouthing off how they'll return the money, are lying. Many of una go spend that money even before the phone call comes requesting for a refund.

Make una dey sha lie for internet .

LOVEGINO:

jaxxy:
How did he get ur number to call u back??

Bobloco:
You are the one who needs to move on

Mummy Hadiza even has a result from a verifiable school, while a certain notorious narcotics drug trafficker and certificate forger claimed to have attended a school four years before it was founded, thereby becoming the guinea pig student used to test-run the school before it was established

Ekaka14:
There's a joker on this thread who will rather focus on your last line and mention than the motivation and learnings from your personal experiences

stevups:
I feel the pain of that boy. Imagine, maybe the parents struggled to put small food for the boy flask while going to school, the boy still got to the school with another struggle. If nothing was done on that case, the woman has damaged the boy mentality. When I was in primary six, I could not even read more write anything but today I have PhD in my bag. It serves the teacher well. If you look at the velocity of that slap, the boy can fall and die there.
