Men are really trying (responsible ones ooo)before they pay rent, sch fees and so on...I cannot even save sef and I intend starting okrika business....

Dis life no just balance

N900 × 21 working days = N18,900

Salary = N30,000

Balance b/f = N11,100

You are a lady and I believe you haven't gotten to menopause. So you buy pad, data and you eat.

How do you survive on N11,000 for 30days?

if you are teaching lessons in your area, is it not better than the poor pay you are getting?

The day they took the light out for 3 mins here to do some maintenance. They brought doughnuts, ice cream and burgers to apologize . I remember when internet went out for just 5 mins, the next day the internet company was here to double check everything. The funny thing is the light bills and internet bills here are even lesser than in Nigeria. It's really terrible and to be honest the current Nigeria you are experiencing is paradise compared to the Nigeria in the next few years.

what country is this where they bring doughnuts and ice cream to apologize for no light?

Congratulations. May your dream of great state come to pass

So this man still dey

Yes he still dey. He was push aside when they thought the supporters club is a golden goose that can make them rich but they forgot that the Goose would have to be fed. Since those clamouring to be the leaders could not or willing to sustain the brand with their own resources the brand lost its luster and they all left. They must have forget it is called fan's club not owner's club.

I agree with you. Security is my major concern

How do u people in marriages or relationships survive because everyday on this platform , it's one story or another

Majority of us are doing fine. We have issues we settle it and move on. This couple problem is just that they rush into marriage. There is pressure and they don't know how to cope. They need someone that is mature and trustworthy to guide them appropriately.

I agree with you that both Nigeria banks and the CBN are part of the problem we are having with the Forex. I read recently where someone in government /CBN is complaining that 80% of Diaspora remittances is been diverted to other countries and as such not reaching Nigeria. I am surprised that they are not ashamed to voice this out.
What stop the CBN and the Nigeria banking sector from developing an international money transfer infrastructure with secure App that runs on the infrastructure to curtail such problem? According to the World Bank, Nigerians remit about $20 billion home annually. If 80% ($16 billion) is been diverted, why not budget about one to two billion dollars to build a secure systems that will eliminate such diversion?
Iran, Russia and North korea are surviving and getting hard currencies under heavy international sanctions and we are complaining about problem cause by simple financial technology apps.
What a shame?

I will assume all Nigerians are considered native at the time. I may be wrong.

Were you able to save up to 100k USD sir

No. if that is your goal you are likely to be disappointed. However, you may be worth more than that in asset. Your asset in Nigeria may be worth more than that but you are not going to get it or save it all at once. You build it over time even when you don't have up to $3000 in your savings.

They are all the same. #200 million to obtain nomination. All this people are just feasting on the country's carcars.
If you are bribing with #200 million to obtain nomination you definitely will not have issue stealing #200 billion from public purse.

This is really a hopeless country. I pray for God intervention soon.

VULCAN:
Your basis for evaluation is truly wack.

You meet a candidate who obtained a distinction in their Masters degree in Economics.

You look at their first degree and see they came out with first class in Economics.

You then go to their secondary school leaving certificate and notice they did badly in Economics- then you disqualify them because of that.

And you think you are OK?

If nobody has told you - let me tell you; you are not ok!

You ignore the great strides a country has made in the past 20yrs because of a very dark chapter in their history that took place 30yrs ago.

I did not ignore their strides. I am just saying that a country that killed 75% of their minority population 30 years ago and where one person has been ruling since 2000 should not be term as a model country for Africa or Nigeria. Rwanda should not be a model for us, may be in another few years. 30 years is too young in the history of a nation to make them a model. I hope and pray that they continue to make positive strides and for Nigeria to be better.

Rwanda is more advanced in thinking any other purely Black African country. In fact, that country is a testament to the fact that a purely Black African country can be great. For instance, President Paul Kagame has been president for God knows how long.

Guess what, he keeps getting re-elected even when he comes from a minority ethnic group. This can never happen in Nigeria

SoNature:


Oga, make your point. Nobody has the time to read long stories. We all know about the genocide in Rwanda. Again, Paul Kagame isn't from a majority ethnic group but has been leading the country ever since their return to democracy.

This is your comment I responded to:

You are putting up a country where 75% of a minority group was killed as a model for Africa. We have a lot of problem in Nigeria but man. Rwanda is not a model we should be looking up to.

SoNature:


Do the education yourself. Bring it on.

ok. Read This:

What happened during the 1994 Rwandan genocide? Who are Hutus and Tutsis? From April through June 1994, more than 800,000 Rwandans were brutally slaughtered by fellow citizens in a state-led genocide targeting the Tutsi ethnic group. About 75% of the Tutsi population died in the mass killings.

She is Igbo , married to Yoruba
She has Igbo blood , only yoruba by marriage

How do you know that?
She could be Yoruba married to Igbo, the mother or father could be Igbo. She could be 100% Igbo or 100% Yoruba. either way, she is a Nigerian. That is what is important.

You bought your fuel at HALF world market prices. The price in Europe for a gallon of petrol is approximately $6, meaning that your 12 gallons cost $72 in the international market.

Thanks for the info.

IamAtikulate:

You are using Nigerian exchange rate to calculate price of fuel in the international market?

Illiterates everywhere.

Whether I am an illiterate or not depends on your level of literacy.
Go back and read the post I replied to and reread my comment. If you still feel the same way, ask any of your university graduate friend they will explain to you the reason for the naira exchange rate in the conversation.

Her name was May Ellen-Ezekiel (MEE) she was never a TV presenter but a magazine journalist. She was a columnist with Quality magazine then eventually started her own magazine named Classique...you're welcome

Yea, "MEE", thank you very much. She was well loved. may her soul rest in peace

The Dangote refinery is not about cheap fuel. We know what happens when you sell fuel below world market prices in Nigeria. It gets smuggled out for profits.

The Dangote refinery is about economic and industrial emancipation, job and income growth and development, whereby more and more people will be able to comfortably afford to buy fuel at international market prices.

what is international fuel prices? I bought 12 gallons of gas this morning for about $38. That is about #38,000. 12 gallons is about 45 liters. @700 per liter, 12 gallons is about #31,500. This is about #5000 less that what is obtainable in international market

Chinese as industrialized as they are, still they Japa not to talk of Nigerians. You forgot that the corruption that is killing Nigeria economyis well and alive. I am not saying people should Japa but if you think Nigeria is going to become an industrialized nation just because of Dangote refinery you are deceiving yourself.

May his soul rest in peace.

I think think men need to know how to address their displeasure with their partners without being offensive or escalating the issues.

How hard is it to have a civil conversation with ur partner or better yet a woman who bore u 3kids?

Why are u afraid she may send u out of the house in future just after a month of joining her?

Most of this is due to ineffective communication skills and then we allow the issue to fester and resentment to grow.

You made a good point. Some of them is creating problem for themselves based on hearsay and social media.
OP this is my advice to you:
Remember she is your wife you marry each other because you love one another. If there is an issue, discuss it with her as if you are in Nigeria. Also get off your high horse, you should respect your wife the way you expect her to respect you. If you walk out on your wife, are you going to go and marry an angel? Over 90% of Nigerians in diaspora are in good loving relationship with their partners. Don't let the few bad ones you are reading in the media affect you. You are going to definitely go through rough patches but you will be glad you stick to it in the long run. Remember you have 3 kids. Breaking your home can have immeasurable negative impacts on your children

This look like clearing for planting than rice harvesting. The way we harvested rice when i was young was to cut the rice at the top of the stem and then used leg to press down the rice stem to move work. This one they are doing seems to require more energy than it takes. How can you harvest acres of rice farm like this? This is just some guys playing around in a rice farm

How many politicians have you ever seen that willingly release their college record. Even in the US, they refuse to release their record as their college record

optimusprime2:


B.A.T is the number 1 public official of Nigeria as a sitting president. So he automatically falls under one of the 12 statutory exemptions of the 1974 privacy act of 1974.

https://www.justice.gov/opcl/privacy-act-1974#:~:text=The%20Privacy%20Act%20prohibits%20the,one%20of%20twelve%20statutory%20exceptions.

Look B.A.T will be exposed very soon, he can't keep this up for long.

I don't think he has more profile than American presidents. If they did not release the college record of American presidents, I don't think Nigeria president will be consider to be more important. It does not mean the court cannot side with Atiku but that is a long route that can go all the way to supreme court if Tinubu so decided.

My opinion is that Tinubu probably bought the paper he used to travel to the united states and then went to school in the united states. I think Atiku knows this lawsuit is not going to go anywhere but to embarrass the president. It is all politics.
