Is mohammed so weak that mad people will fight for him? What a silly religion.

Olamicwoto:
Married wrong woman. Infact I'm still regreting

Aren't they all wrong?

Is she toxic or she's not working and helping in bills payment?

Be specific.

author=FeelGoodAlways post=124052066]Times are definitely not nice to Nigerians. The streets are not smiling. People are not happy. You could see from their sad faces.

I am an undergraduate working as a security guard at night to help myself financially.

So due to fuel situation and the economic effects, I have been trekking to and fro the place, because no money and the transport is very expensive now. Today, I didn't feel very strong to trek back to the place due to malaria seriously holding me down. I approached my neighbor who is earning over 100k+ salary, minus side hustling to help me with transport fare to go to work. Guess what? He started by laughing cheapishly. When he paused, he narrated how he trekked back from work on Friday, trekked to and fro work today being Monday and not sure how he'll get back to office tomorrow morning being Tuesday. That the new transport fare has eaten deeper into his small earning that even before middle of the month, the salary had long gone. Last night, the children drank Garri to go to bed and this morning, the children left to school drinking only Pap and he put only N100 Akara for each in their lunch boxes. Sad story. He added that due to the economic impact of fuel subsidy removal, retrenchment letters for 3 of his colleagues in the office are ready to be served by the end of the month, and more to go.

Who will rescue us, we don't know? Sad truth is that the money that will be generated from this subsidy removal will not be put to use to the benefit of the commoners. It's just a plot to generate more money for the elites/thieves.

Could you believe that nobody could borrow me N500 in the whole compound? Incredible.

Well, even when I wasn't feeling strong to trek coupled with all I'm passing through financially, I just had to trek which I did.

I picked up this job because instead of sleeping freely at night and when the rent expires, the landlord would come after me + plus all the bills heaped on me, I could rather spend the nights here reading my books, sleep (even though not as recommended) and still earn some money no matter how small.

Finally, I would say do well to help people when you can. People are going through a lot. Not untill the start falling in the street.

*In mama P. voice* - "God will see us through".

God bless all hard working Nigerians no matter the tough times we face.[/quote]You really think that #100 000 is enough money in this economy? It's barely enough for a single man talkless of one with a family comprising of children.
You should know better.

Calculate transportation in a month and feeding. That should gulp more than half of his salary.

Aside that he will give his wife money for miscellaneous. What of house rent, clothing.
Children school fees nko and sundry expenses which schools task them.

What of extended family members?
You as a single is not finding it funny. Wait and marry first, you will understand better.

If I hear. Putin hardly forgives. That chief is as good as gone in unsuspicious ways.

henrimoto:
...Is he coming back to the country with an empty hand. ? I guess he must have raised some good amount of capital to start up with .

Start what with? Nigeria is not business friendly. Touts, police, Power holding, government trying to fleece you off with bad policies.

Government will wake up on the wrong side and decide to demolish your business premises, no light, increase in raw materials, insecurity etc

Ezeama400:
Tinubu was very very excited to met Iweala hence shaking her with two hands when Iweala gave one hand, but his supporters are the ones turning every thread into tribal war...

Tinubu rodents are disgrace to humanity

You have given them another thing to mourn about. Such jobless people.

sweetman2022:
It is a goal she will set for herself and work towards because of what is attached to it.
You don't need to read morning, afternoon and night to get that grade he suggested. You just need to be determined and focus. So it is achievable.

Are you married?

Justkatty:
Please education first
That was how I was deceived that I'll be getting trained, and later got pregnant out of wedlock
But thanks be to God after I put to bed, I went back to school Courtesy of my siblings.

Are you a single mum?

Samantha124:
I'll let go of the marriage idea and focus on school... If the guy is serious, he'll wait until I'm done with school and we'll get married.

Serious ke? What if you find someone else while he's waiting for you. Are you prepared to swear with ogwugwu that you wont cheat on him and that anytime you do, let amadioha comot your skull.

Nazgul:
The man is just worried that if you get married while in school, childbirth and other family issues might hinder you from concentrating on your studies, so to him it's going to be like a waste of his precious money. Cos what's the point of spending money to sponsor someone who might end up having 2 or more extra years? What kind of result would you come out with at the end of the day?

If you really want to get married and still go to school, you can meet him and iron out things with him. Promise him that you'll maintain a CGPA of not less than 3.5 per academic session. That if you fall below that, he can withdraw he's sponsorship. If he sees your determination, he'll go ahead and sponsor you.

Don't make promises you can't keep. Pregnancy comes with challenges and you might enter labour on examination date.

Kemadealadire:
Both can be done together.

Very stressful.

JennyJossie:
Your advice pls at 29 to 30 some one is ready to marry you and also promise to train you in school, but you are not sure. And one of your relative said he will train you in school, and you are sure about it but on the conditions that you must let go of marriage issues. Which one will you go for

Don't count on a man training you after marriage. Even if he will, you'll have dropped one or two kids for him and might even be carrying them to lectures which may schools in Nigeria frown at or leave them with someone.

If you were male, I will say go for education but since you are female, your biological clock is ticking. Learn a skill and marry but know that you will be more of a housewife cos he might end up not training you.

I don't know your priorities though.

DoTheNeedful:
Nigerians no dey carry last with their lies. I knew that some people would start spewing thrash about how they narrowly missed the voyage.


No be today Nigerians be like that. I remember those days of frequent plane crashes in Nigeria. Almost every Nigerian then would tell you they narrowly boarded the crashed planes. Everything for clout !!!

Atleast he has the picture with the man to push his claims. Show us your own pictures even if it's photokiosk.

favor914:
Why must the over sabi assume on presumed information? Mumu Useless Man.

He should have kept his opinion to himself, until it was verified.

Calling an elder useless tells us you weren't well raised. Your parents probably abandoned your training to cats and dogs.

55truth:
Around the mid-90s, I was a little child then still following my mother to the market. My mother was into buying and selling palm oil. I may not remember everything again but I can still remember vividly that before we returned home, she would buy 10 cups of Garri for N10. If it is 15 cups, it would be N15. 20 cups would go for N20. That's N1/cup. That was in stock to serve till the next market day.

As a son of a palm oil seller, against all odds, I have strived to attend education up to tertiary level only to come back and be hit with unemployment, in an economy with throat-cutting inflation. That same Garri that was N1/cup, the attached photo is 6 cups for N500. This is not even enough for one mouth not to talk of several mouths. How did Nigeria become this expensive and difficult for average citizens to survive amidst massive unemployment/underemployment?

The recent removal of fuel subsidy has even worsened the whole situation, making prices of goods and services beyond the reach of the common citizens.

"Can the poor breathe please?"

I am an applicant with mouths to feed, finding it difficult to survive each day. And as a Nigerian living in Nigeria, can I at least breathe until I get a job or find capital to start a business and things become better?

Undoubtedly, millions of Nigerians are in my shoes, and even worst. This is evident in the Nigerian streets.

Yahoo, kidnapping, money rituals, etc are not meant for everybody but unfortunately, the youth are being pushed into it due to the state of the economy. Note: I'm not in any way in support of the aforementioned.

In Tinubu's voice, I would say, please,

"LET THE POOR BREATH".
"DON'T SUFFOCATE THEM".

And on behalf of unemployed Nigerian youths, WE WANT TO BREATHE. DO WELL TO HELP THE UNEMPLOYED WITH A JOB AND ANY OTHER SUPPORT.

Why didn't you refuse to grow up then? If you had remained a child perhaps things would have been the same.


What's the naira to Dollar exchange rate then and now?

Buhari really crippled Nigeria.

slawomir:

Rubbish

This children should be more creative and do something productive with thier lives instead of always wasting thier time doing this remake and recreation shit

Osiki18:
Good day nairalanders. Please how much is the cost of a bag of sachet water in your area? I usually get a bag for N250 only to back yesterday and was told it has increased to N350. I stay at Choba in PH


Is the increase only in sachet water?
Is the change just in Port Harcourt?
Is the fuel subsidy also a factor?

It will favour me and my family crew.

Don't worry everyone go chop Tinubu breakfast. Something that happened weeks ago in my area.


At the moment pure water companies increased from #200 to #250 while retail shops sell at #300.

Maybe you should arrange with purewater to get it like 5 -10 bags.

Some major African countries such as South-Africa, and Ghana are missing on the list though.

Op you failed in mathematics. That phone is close to #950 000.

Minimum wage in Nigeria is #30 000 and some earn half of that monthly.

Assuming we work with#30k it will take 2 years and 7 months to raise it.
