Rubbish. Willing and able graduates still apply after NYSC and some of the most qualified are not taken because they don't have big godfathers. Recruiting from nysc will not change anything if we are still corrupt

Not true. Success gets into everyone's head who is not disciplined. Some sucessful men behave anyhow to their wife and females and they expect them to take it or females mostly take it because they are benefiting something.
It is not the same with men. Even where a man is benefiting, he still wants to claim oga. That's the only difference.

SmartPolician:
Sorry, boss, but we saw it coming.
It's difficult to manage a woman who's more successful than you. Success easily gets to women's heads and that's the challenge most men face now.

In a world where women are increasingly getting educated and empowered, we will definitely have tons of crashed marriages and disjointed homes/kids. Na the endpoint be that...

I know it sounds awkward, but I don't blame some Islamic/Arabic countries that refused to educate their women. I just dey laugh men wey like the extreme feminists as wives; the marriage will definitely end in premium tears.

Caring for your skin is one of the most expensive thing you will do on yourself if you choose to. Ehen you see fresh people, respect them because it costs a fortune to look fine without blemishes, and I don't mean those that bleach their skin. When you take skincare seriously you'd see you are more beautiful and handsome than you thought you were. Forget all those wash your face with Lux and joy soap, go and get dedicated skin care products if you are serious. Toilet soaps are very stripping on the face, because the skin on your face is different from that of the rest of your body. Toilet soaps have the tendency to over wash the natural oil your skin produces, hence leading your skin to overdrive to make up for the overstripping, which will lead to dry skin, over oily skin and even more acne breakouts. If you are serious about skincare, get facial cleanser made to care for your face

My dear, let me make it easy fir you.
A whole big bunch of stupid people. Sometimes ehh, you cimments and topics you see will make you wonder if this is tla reflection of the mindset of youths in this country. I just choose to believe it is not, because I am afraid that if it is, then the leaders are not the real or only problem we have.

earthsync:
This forum sometimes ehn...I no just understand the kind of people that are on nairaland

Stories are incomplete. Females are very complicated creatures. Both corper and madam in uniform have not said what the real issue is. Madam corper, the way you are friends with all the MALE OFFICERS is suspicious. Na only you them they see to greet? Were you the only female ushering? The officers didn't greet other urshers? Why did she single you out to insult? What I can deduce that is close to this story is that you went to PPA to carry shoulder with uniform people. Madam army may not have liked your attitude and your close relationship with the Male officers. By the time you have started jumping around with male officers, respect no go dey again. In all, you didn't deserve the treatment you got, but next time, when you are in certain environment, study the environment and behave accordingly.

Idamond:


My face is always OILY and it also cause PIMPLES on my face because of that I stop applying cream on my face, and the resultant is causing pimples on my face..

even after taking my bath in less than an hour oil will pop out from my face even if I'm under an air-conditioned...
please how do I stop these.

You need a dedicated skincare routine and it is not cheap or overnight miracle. You have to be patient and religious with it. Stop using the soap, cream and towel you use on your body on your face.
Get Cerave or Cetaphil Moisturizer ( can be used for both face and body) and facial cleanser. Get a niacinamide, sunscreen spf30 and above and Vitamin C serum
Morning :
1. wash face with the facial cleanser
2. Apply the niacinamide Serum( helps with oil control and other things)
3. Apply the Moisturiser
4. Apply sunscreen

Night:
1. Wash your face with the cleanser.
2. Apply the vitamin c serum (helps with brighting dark spots and skin)
3. Apply your moisturiser.

This is just a basic skincare routine. You can opt for advanced ones and add more products, but more doesn't always mean better. Good luck.

DuduParaPara:
See as Twitter no even send them.

They're the ones running up and down cos they will need Twitter for campaigns next year.

They thought they could frustrate us by suspending it.

Well, we survived. Now they're looking for ways to unban Twitter without them looking stupid.

See how many times they have released statements cos of Twitter.

Yet Twitter just continued and moved on as though they don't exist.

Exactly. Funny thing is that the 3 requests they claim have not been met are the issues Twitter will not agree to meet. He should tell us the 7 that have been met because I don't know what other conditions they could be. All they want to do is control twitter in nigeria. Lol. Elections is around the corner, they need twitter for propaganda and twitter knows, so they two are dragging their feet because it's a win win for them. They have already been banned, so why not wait it out till the next administration if possible instead of agreeing to stupid demands.

Stories. At the rate they are going, if they finish in the next 5years… hmmm

Depending on the kind of insult if it is related to work like if you do something and your boss call you olodo, or are you mad, you don't have sense etc etc you know that kind of insult that could emanate from messing up or not doing well what you are asked to do. But if e enter deep insults like God punish you or your boss begins to insult your parents and upbringing or deeper stuffs not associated with work, tell am say you no like am, if im continue, change am for am.

RisenJoe:
Depends on where you are working and benefits attached to the work.

Like me now that served my oga for seven years, during the first four years insults was non existent but during the last three years b4 my settlement that was when this man brought out my case file of the things I did in last four years which I thought he has forgotten that I've been with him, the thing pain Sha but I got to mellow down because my settlement is near and if I dare raise my voice on him he might start beating me which I would be tempted to defend my self and retaliate back, but all along I kept quiet whenever he is barking at me like a dog, e no dey easy ooo but I know what I was looking for and I won't let my ego stand in my way, so I swallowed my pride and he trashed me but now am on my own after many years of serving him and recieving his insults.....



My advice to whoever is reading this is; don't let your ego and pride stand in your way, words(insults) are nothing unless you let it become something for you, but be sure you are always trying your best at work so as to avoid insults and bad mouthing.....

if to say with the anger and insult, them use something stone you or chuk you, shey you go dey grave dey swallow the pride? Depends on the kind of insults and treatment, protect your physical and mental health first because all the money in the world can't buy those. That's why some people have plenty money today but no self esteem because they have been abused mostly mentally

Also as you are doing tge eye service, make sure you are holding on to God or whatever you believe in strongly because you will step on toes and many will not take it lightly.

I'd take it that you knew she was the high end type of girl before you decided to marry her, so you shouldn't blame her for wanting what she wants because you can't foot the bill now. However, I think if you have looked very well and sure you were marrying a reasonable person, you should have asked her opinion first because the marriage involves the both of you even if you claim now she is not willing to contribute which I find strange. If the both of you couldn't come up with a reasonable means of cutting cost at the time and you discussed it with your mum and she gave the good suggestion, then you should have presented it as your own suggestion instead of another person's idea. The need to put the story here for jobless people who don't know the story to bash and call her names is irrelevant. You must have dated her and know her character and still decided to marry her so I don't see the need for complaints here because she did not just present the attitude because of wedding

He may be dyslexic. You would need professional help to diagnose and treat. Ask around and google,
I think I've heard about some dyslexic foundation in Nigeria. He'd be fine

Gundel001:
Hi good day my fellow Nairalander please I will really need your experience about this issue. Please help me read to the end as it is a little bit long.

My junior brother is 14 years old and to be sincere I haven’t seen anybody as dull as him. I don’t know if it is natural but I just can’t understand why someone at that age could still be struggling with very simple arithmetic. My brother can’t write 1 – 150 correctly at 14.

He seems too dull; note he attends one of the best private school around our area, though I know you might say maybe education is not his way but even if you want to drop out from school you should know some basic things like money, time, multiplication and so on but my brother doesn’t know anything I must say, even to write his name correctly is a problem. It is making everyone unhappy lot of money is being spent on lesson teachers and other things for him still no improvement.

I am a student of one of the top federal University in Nigeria same as my other siblings even at both secondary and undergraduate level we were always above average so I can’t say his problem is genetic. I really wants to know what is the problem with him nairalanders. After I finished secondary school I once taught some pupils in primary school though there were dull ones too there but with time I could see improvement unlike my brother i always try to teach him from time to time but it kind of frustrating as he doesn’t even seems like he will ever grab anything and he doesn’t behave like he wants to learn anything.

He makes it seems as if he is not interested book or arithmetic at all …we all tried talking to him endless time to always read any time he his less busy but he never does except he is being forced.

He rarely talks, he loves to keep to himself always, he doesn’t have interest in anything unlike we the others that are die hard football fans, most times my mom will tell him to even go out to play and mingle he will not still want to go, he prefer to stay at home seating all day without reading or doing anything, even if it is to draw or play football he wont.

This matter is not making everyone happy at home we don’t even know the solution to his problem again, as in imagine having a child that is 14 years old that doesn’t know the difference between 17 and 71 it is just so bad…..

We don’t know if his case is mental or spiritual. please nairalanders I know there are child experts in the house or anybody who have experienced something like this before what do you think is the problem and possible solutions to the problem your contributions are welcome.

Please help me push this pleaseeeeee

Even if we were to lockdown the whole country, we are not supposed to shut the doors of the church because that's the only place our help can come from, please u people should just tell us the kind of game u are playing so that we can either join u or find our square root.

For hypocritical Christians, you all seem to think God answers your prayers when you go to church. You should read your comment and realize how spiritually shallow you sound. Your help can only come from God, not from the church. And where is God? God is everywhere. So if you think your help comes from the church, then there's something wrong with the religion you practice which doesn't sound like Christianity

JamParkMe:
That person seeking a test right now is an unserious fellow. They are only testing those with symptoms such as fever, cough and body aches who may have been exposed to an infected person. There are very limited number of testing kits to go around, so yes of course screening is selective. Even in America and Europe, they are only testing people with symptoms, so why did your friend think he can just get tested like that?

Davido and his household that got tested, did they have any symptoms? Except they got tested in a private lab which we are not aware of, then you too are also unserious. As if you don't know the kind of Nigeria you are in again.

All these mumu mumu airport these people are wasting and stealing money building. How many people use some of these airports? There are already airports in neighboring states that struggle to get passengers, so what's the use of these new ones?

That's how one of my neignours, I don't know weda he is fresh fish that needs icing. This man will not allow NEPA take light, him don run on generator. Even though generator have their house built seperatly in the compound, yet, the noise from his own generator even from the distance is something else, and he puts it on morning, afternoon night, as long as there's no light. If you complain now, it will be like another thing is inside. Some people are just so inconsiderate. If you go and investigate properly now, he does not eat balanced diet LMAO.

These people are not serious. If they want to be serious, they should do massive media campaign, radio, television, social media in all languages do that everybody will be informed. If they can even do town crier style self, they should do. You can't just pass information when 90% of the people that will benefit from it can't access the information. If they are seriously and they engage in massive media campaign, the DisCos will know that they Don buy bad market when people begin to challenge them when they bring all those outrageous bill and people will refuse to pay. Otherwise, this one will not work because the discos will still continue stealing from the consumers. My bill went from an average of 16k to almost 27k in a 2bedroom flat this January, why, I don't know. I don't even have AC or anything that consumes power. Worse is I can't even boast of 6hrs of light in a day.

Kylekent59:
After he paid huge for traditional marriage, paid bride price, still did white wedding.

He even pays for his wife bills, he also sends money to the wife's father and mother. He also pays for his wife's brother school fees and his wife's sister is currently in his house living with them.

His wife's sister is currently in year two and she comes stay with them every vacation. He even pays for her school fees, house rent and still gives her some cash in case of miscellaneous expenses.

He even opened a supermarket for the wife and still gives her #50k everyweek.


And someone comes here to ask if they should or shouldn't

Only poor people like to choke themselves in the same room that they are doing husband and wife. People need their quiet time, both wife and husband. Spending time sometimes alone in your private space isn't a bad thing.

biggie73:
.....your son just told you the cardinal truth. His mother supposed to help you out. My question to the mother is how will she feel when her son washes his underwear while his wife or girl watches? How? You definitely have a man in your baby, and a weakling in the father....

SMH. These are the kind of husbands that wives refer to as useless when they don't have money. Your type will never marry an intelligent woman. And of the woman come by mistake get sense inside the marriage, wahala will burst out because she'd begin to see she doesn't need you for anything once she can provide her needs. Men, learn and don't transfer this weak mentality to your male children. The women are getting more empowered now and are standing up for themselves. The narrative in the nearest future would be men who can keep their wife and not women who can keep their husbands. The men being the breadwinner of the family that made them feel like gods is beginning to phase out. Empower yourself outside of having money so you'd be more relevant to your family.

Brazenbabe:


This is how you dolts "unsimp" yourselves into uselessness
Your redpill brain cannot envisage that the 4 year old child would get married in the next 25 years at least
Do you really think that this women belong to the kitchen and men belong to the office crap you people are struggling to hold onto would exist in the next 10 years?
Take a look around you, is it only men that were affected by this keke and okada ban? Did you not see men and women protesting side by side (occupy Lagos protest)
Everybody should learn how to wash clothes, everybody should learn to make money. It is a necessary survival skill.
If a man washes his wife's panties, is is bad? No be him dey chop wetin pant dey cover?
It is men like you that look after their wives after childbirth, cook for them, clean them up , hold the baby while she sleeps, they dont have two heads
yet some of you are pushing an outdated narrative that makes you so useless to your partner that you cant boil water
That why why your wives make useless shakara and refuse to cook when they are angry cos they know you are uselessly useless in the kitchen.
Keep making yourselves irrelevant, Women are replacing you in the boardrooms, dildos are replacing you in the bedrooms
Dont reinvent your selves please. Dont be a "simp". Mtcheeew

Don't mind the 21st century slave. Men like him are the ones that hold on to such toxic masculine mentality, because they want to keep consoling themselves that they are not useless. The kind of weak men that see their wife's success as a threat because they know without the "providing for the family" role they pride themselves in, they are useless.

aspirebig:
Is the Landlord's duty but the money is usually small. In some places is like 8k to 12k in a year.

So if your rent is 400k/500k in a 3bedroom flat pa, is it 12k that will be an issue?

All the same,notify the Landlord of this charge. Is the cordial relationship btw landlord and tenant that matters most, not the monetary side, if there is a good bond, the two can remain good family friends for life.

if it is that cheap, then the landlord must be a greedy person to still ask you to pay for it after paying the rent and all the other monies they try to collect from you. A wise landlord should factor all that into the rent, so when you pay the rent, you don't begin to hear about other sundry levies to pay later. It's really annoying how greedy and wicked most of these landlords, lawyers and house agents try to take advantage of people. Anyways, all these rubbish only happen in Lagos.

Wow! Stories like this will make you realize how mentally broke many guys are. This is a typical human behavior and it doesn't make the person bad. She gets money and all that but wants attention, what is wrong with that? Truth of the matter is when someone really cares about you, even of they like your money as well, if you don't give them attention, they are never satisfied. Mentally and genetically broke guys always think money is everything. Even when they manage to have the money, they behave anyhow and don't know how to love anybody including themselves.

Neoteny:


I summed up the strength, and courage, to wade through and it was dense!



The burden of evidence is on you. When you make a claim, back it up with proof, not wild and fanciful speculations that defy all known material laws. Talking about ghosts and witchcraft and magic makes you look daft to sensible minds.

We're in desperate times, things are hard, world war 3 is potentially around the corner, and your preoccupation is wizard landlords and sentient houses? Really?!

I blame the mod who pushes this garbage to the front.

which evidence do you need? Somebody was doing well in their legit and clean business, or managing fine, gathered money and decided it is time to upgrade, paid you the money they got from their hustle, moved into your house and all of a sudden, what they were doing before they encountered you crumbles, what do you call that? Even if you you are not evil or diabolical, you must be badluck because if nothing is wrong with you and your hand is clean, as soon a tenant who is able to afford your rent encounters you, he or she should experience good returns.

Neoteny:
I've manned up and struggled through your word salad because I'm mostly bored, and I'd love to see how idiots think.




But if i'd shut up, you wouldn't have had the opportunity to toss this word salad.



That's hypocritical, since I expressed my opinion of his opinion, and you're here using your opinion to tell me not to express my opinion of his opinion



So if your doctor finds some incurable disease in you, he should shut the fug up? Thumbs up, brainiac.



Word salad!



SMH



A landlord who has the power to remotely kill, cause harm, perform rituals to make money and is evil enough to do it, will not bother with rents. He'll make enough money to retire as the world's richest man. Does your brain know even how to brain properly?




I just did to reply you. And i still have my seat belt on.



Yeah, I still don't know how magnets work. How do magnets work?



Of course I have to. Why do atheists laugh at religious people?

Man, you do toss some mean word salad, don't you?

Idiot.

well does who can have a conversation without resolving to insults usually are people with low IQ.
Didn't say don't express your opinion or your opinions aren't valid, I said don't diminish what other people think because you don't think the same.

Smart Alec, a doctor cannot jump to conclusions because of what he thinks, there must be evidence that what he says it's real, upon further investigations, a conclusion would be reached. Even in science, not every scientists agree on the same things, some things are generally accepted while some things are not. People accept and believe what they believe based on their own understanding, investigations, believes, experiences etc.

Numbskul, I never said a landlord wants to kill, I said people use different means to kill people. People have killed their family members for money rituals even used their children and manhood as sacrifices what makes you think a landlord that is diabolical wouldn't use the good fortune of his tenants to renew his own fortune. Do you know the pact he made with whatever he serves and believes in?

Nitwit, Atheists believe what they believe, I can't impose what I believe to them. They have their reasons for their believe whom am I to tell them they are wrong.

Ode, you don't have to believe or know how magnets work. It is evident. If I tell you when you bring metal close to it it will attract it and I show you, you see it. But if I tell you that I have seen an object that if you bring metal close to it it will attract it and you say it is a lie, does it mean that magnets don't exist because you haven't seen it or because you don't believe such can happen?

BigIyanga:

You rented a filthy apartment period. Naija is a superstition-indulging country. How comf those that live in churches and mosques are not as rich as Dangote and Wizkid?

that is because you do not go to churches and mosques to get rich.

Neoteny:



Tbh i didn't bother reading that hogwash

The moment you rose to defend belief in witchcraft and goblins and pixies tells me all i need to know about you.

Cheers.

I'm glad you could read up to that. Whether you believe it or not is irrelevant. Just let people believe what they believe if you don't have any evidence to show that what they believe isn't real. You have your reasons and they do have their reasons.

Ikennablue:
and they will make you start imagining things, bringing negative energy around you.

One thing I know is that you are what you believe. We have to be careful with our thoughts and imagination because the power of these two cannot be over emphasized

I remember when I and my brother rented a flat. One day my brother came back and told me he ran into the father of one of his students when he used to be a teacher. After conversations and he told the man he just rented a place around, and the man asked him to take him there. The man is a youruba man and also a landlord in that community. So the man told him that well, that he does not know the "SPIRITUAL" background of the compound, but he knows the landlord and they are good people so we should be OK. But if he experiences anything strange, he should let him know. We have lived there for close to a year, so far so good. I believe there's good and evil in this life, good and bad people too. Sometimes you just have to be informed not to put yourself into trouble. Before we rented that house, I asked questions, I was told the first tenant built his own house and packed out, the second tenant lost her husband and couldn't meet up with the rent of which the owner of the house gave her over one year of free rent before she looked for a smaller apartment. So everything was OK.

PointZerom:


It is never diabolical to bury someone in a room.
If the landlord had performed some anti prosperous sacrifices in that room, you'll need grace and divine intervention to succeed in that place. I am a living witness.

exactly. Even the places we live in might have been a burial ground many centuries ago. I don't even understand why people are having these arguments. Some of the incidences may just be coincidence but evil and evil people exist, and in this life, anything is possible.

Neoteny:



Just... shut up.

This bullshit has gone on long enough

Lazy and unlucky people will always blame others for their failures

you telling someone to shut up, should first shut up. People should be allowed their opinion. People have experienced things and you have no right to tell them what they think is wrong if you don't have any solution to it. If you say they are unlucky, where they unlucky before they got the money to rent the apartment that coincidentally after moving in there the "unlucky " means they were using to manage their lives started to fall apart? You hear about how people give other people love portion, you hear and see people that do money rituals, you hear about how people use witchcraft to kill others, you see and hear people talk about evil things men do to man and you think it is impossible that a landlord can do some of the things talked about? Please park one side! Things happen, people do alot of things that to you sounds unfathomable and unreasonable and people have strange experiences that may seem unbelievable, you don't have to diminish their experiences or believes because it hasn't happened to you.

Nickshrapnel:
My dad had a tenant that got into his house and built his own house in the 2nd year after moving in he also had another who took the house and is still owing 2 years rent.
The problem is mostly with a person and not the house

. Maybe the other tenant power strong pass your papa own.
