men
Wicked beings
Ijust feel for the poor innocent wife. Her husband must have taken advantage of the fact that she works with the man to get informations from her.
Sad

At some point, y'all have to get pass this "we" and "them" bullsh!TS and be human.

How can a woman live with a man who has more than 30 million in his account without knowing he's a kidnapper? How did he come about the money? So anytime her husband asks her about her boss, what's she expecting he needs information for? To play ludo with the boss or pray for him?


Honestly, all our presidential aspirants are just playing to the gallery - they don't know shit. Because they should be talking about building massive prisons in every local government to lock up the many human beasts who won't let people sleep with peace of mind.

No money, problem. Get money, attract kidnappers and arm robbers.

CaveAdullam:

10. As a father you'll one day be shocked and remain long-standing with mouth wide open, eyes gazing far when you are being asked "what have you done for me that you are using to boast".

This brought back memories and got me hysterical.

I was very recently close to a girl for about a year, not romantically but quite close and good friends. Naturally, we both did help each other out as our capacity permits.

We had a week-long quarrel once and as we both sat down to talk things through, she said with a straight face that I don't ever help her with a particular "issue". worse thing, she said that in passing without any prompt from me. I was so shocked I said goodnight and went to sleep. I just had to pretend that was never said so we could both move on.

Guess what cause our initial quarrel? At the course of me helping her with THAT same particular "issue". Something I've been helping with every now and then for over 8 months. Rude awakening!

I was shocked. I thought I was in cuckooland. I don't easily get flustered but she easily did got me that day. It'd much easier for you to convince me 2 + 2 = 0 than make me understand why she said what she said.

I can only imagine how a married man (woman? hardly) must feel if their loving wife just bloat out "what have you ever done for me?" in the middle of an argument.

Our sisters, and wifeys them, that are guilty of the above in the heat of the moment, why Una dey yarn that talk. I would truly like to know?

Releasing someone's nude online is criminal I believe? I'm all for redlines that should never be crossed, despite the sentiments involved. Some persons have a case to answer here.

4 times a week? That's way too excessive. If I'm the uncle, that'll drive me nuts.

I don't even think I'll want to see you 4 times a month. Maybe like once a month or something.

.

It's proven already women are prolific in committing this particular type of abuses against weak, defenceless children who are not theirs. Just look at the body of that little girl, laced with marks of prolong physical torture endured over a long period.

However, husbands and fathers and brothers and sons, it's not about shouting I'm a man, an alpha, or head of the house, when you see this type of evil going on under your roof but turn a blind eye. Most of the time, a man connected to the actual perpetrators can do something to stop such domestic abuse. The worse that could happen is that they send the househelp away. still better if the abuser refuses to stop.

Dailyparrot:
In a similar incident, another girl I met at the Lagos state NYSC orientation camp who has remained my friend even after she got married just traveled to the UK to do her masters.

She brought her own assignment to me and I billed her based on the relationship we've had over the years.

Now, this girl sent the money and demanded that I should send part of the work to her in case something happens to me.

I really don't understand that statement. I've known this girl for years and never for a day did she try to reach me and I was unreachable. So because she sent me a meager 25k, something will suddenly happen to me that I will not be able to deliver her work to her.

Why are some girls this mean and wicked at heart?

But what's actually wrong in a client asking you to deliver completed work in bits and pieces? Put yourself in the person's shoes. She gave you a valid reasons why she wanted to have any completed work delivered - so she can carry on and complete the rest if circumstance warrants. She was not trying to question your professionalism. In fact, she's suggesting ways to ensure you maintain it to some degree IF things go south.

For context, I was working on a project for a new client when I received a call that my cousin had a nasty accident. I had to deliver what I had done already so the client won't think I was playing with their work. I've lost documents save locally on my devices, and had to start from scratch. The client was really angry. I could have delivered some units as soon as I completed them.

She paid you in full, be thankful for that. Other service renderers get their money when they reach certain milestones in the project.
Besides, quit the mentality that you're doing them a favor. You're getting paid. If you stop offering the services you render, other people will fill the void. There's nothing special about the work you can do.

As for the girl asking for kickbacks, I understand why you may feel some kind of way giving her a cut. But just as you thought she shouldn't be requesting kickbacks from you because of your friendship, she may also be expecting a small giveaway for the same reason. I hope you know some people make their living from connecting customers to service renderers.


Personally, I would give her a cut since she's expecting some (I would have offered her anyways), and be glad she requested instead of holding ill feelings about it. But whether I continue taking her referrals would be based on how I perceive her approach. I have worked with too many nice and reasonable people to begin entertaining unbridled arrogance.

That HE stoop too low to submit himself to serve this country doesn't give anyone the right to insult or ridicule him in any way even in his presence!

So, serving this country is beneath your Mr. Obi. Wonders shall never end.

Today is a Monday I guess your brain is sitting-at-home. Because I don't see any other reasons why you wouldn't use it.

I've not had such experience, but I want to dedicate this post to my dear friend.
A young boy who was so lucky to cash $35k 2years ago. Do you know that kind of stuff like when you've about #12m plus in your account and all of a sudden it's gone? He was with me ever since such peril, I really want to recommend him for being strong even when he got so depressed but still stood strong. I want him to know, huge funds will come. Stay solid bro

I don't know why this got so many likes, are Nigerians that morally bankrupt?

A scammer got caught, why should anyone lose sleep?
Your dear friend didn't go from grace to grass, he never earned that right to be in riches in the first place.

And you've got some nerve to include your thief of a friend amongst honest people trying stay upbeat the hard life.

Which kind of idiot beats a crying baby so they stop crying? Just look at the grave consequences the actions of a totally idiotic fool resulted to. Such a cute little baby has already suffered a bad fate because of another senseless beast of a father. This is such a bitter news to hear.

So many sick people in this fucccking world. Such a sick bastard father that should have been aborted and flush down a toilet.

Lock him up in complete solitude. He shouldn't see the face of any human again till he dies of old age.

chocolateme:
I carried two big baskets of my cake to sell at the rally ground.

When I got there, there was a massive crowd on the ground, so many people thought it was a free cake for Obidients.

Immediately I brought my baskets down to start business, a man and his PA approached me to buy one of the two baskets of my cake for people to eat. I was so happy eh!

While we were counting to check the amount of cake in the basket, some people thought they've been asked to start collecting cake. Within 78 SECONDS, the two baskets became empty. Even my basket was broken.

I almost fainted due to the crowd. The man that ordered the cake came and calmed me down, asked me the total amount of the cakes, I told him and he gave me 100k and asked me to count out my money and give his PA the balance.

I was very happy and grateful especially because they were buying everything that people brought to sell, they kept buying and sharing with the Obedients so they won't be weary throughout the rally.

Obedients are doing great and I am happy to have always been Obedient.

Obviously, you're good at making cake and you know how to handle your business. But...

Don't you think your personal political opinions shouldn't get muddled in with business? Probably not the time and place to reveal your political bias. Because you're sounding like you wouldn't get paid at OTHER party's rallies

He has secured an additional buffer zone but maybe that is beyond your comprehension. Like I said you bots don't read. I am a historian and analyze without sentiment based on research.

Even talking about safety everyday life in Russia is far better than the US, but of course CNN won't tell you that.

Don't. Don't. Don't.

N3TRAL:
Nigeria is a tough country to survive with a minimum wage of 30,000 naira (less than $ 100 USD per month).

To cater for one's family in Nigeria as a civil servant, one has to increase their income through begging or sharp practices while engaged in the civil service.

Go to Universities and Polytechnics, lecturers are selling handbooks to students. Some of these lecturers will teach you well and mark your papers well whether you buy their handbooks or not. Other lecturers will not teach well and score you low if you do not buy their handbooks. We don't spit on the lecturers because education is important.

Go to Immigration offices across the country. Staff are collecting huge sums to process passports. People even beg them to collect bigger amounts to process their passports faster. We don't spit on the staff because traveling is important.

Go to file court processes even in the court registry, you have to pay the staff extra money so that they can handle your files happily. We don't spit on the registrar because getting justice is important.

Try to book an appointment with a prominent person who has a busy schedule. You have to appreciate his P.A or secretary with money and airtime. We don't spit on the them because seeing the big man is important.

It is same at every government department in this country.

When the student returns from school and the lady leaves the immigration office to encounter a police officer at a checkpoint, he/she spits on the police officer because security is not important and the police was standing under the rain sun unlike the others.

Just like almost every lecturer sells handouts, most police men just beg for 100 naira or 200 Naira to complement their 45,000 naira a month without seeing their families. Not all of them are like the lecturers who victimize students who don't buy the handbooks.

Ask the drivers whose cars were auctioned in Lagos Last week, they'd be praying a police officer had asked them for 5000 naira or 10,000 naira at the spot instead. Ask G-boys wey dey EFCC custody, they will tell you they wished a police officer asked them for little at a checkpoint instead.

When e reach police officers we dey form sane clime. If police dem follow form sane clime tow people car wey default go station, car for finish for Naija. Though there are bad officers, let's appreciate the good ones please.

Double standards everywhere.

Excellently Written.

God1000:
Very childish Man, he doesn't care about rectitude and protocols in such event.

Biden sat down by himself in that particular chair, the same with other leaders.
He could have gone to the front row if he wanted to, but he's not an attention seeking freak like Donald trump.

I can't wait to see Donald trump in prison, he should also be barred from holding any public office for the rest of his miserable life.

This man tried so hard to destabilise US democracy and he's still doing it, he embraced US foes and pushed allies away.
Maga republicans led by Donald trump are hellbent on destroying USA, they are the greatest threat to America today, not Russia and China.

For nigerians admiring such racist and white supremacist, you all should be ashamed of yourselves

You're wrong. Nobody sat where they wanted. Seats were assigned to each persons as the British Government deemed necessary.

No be everything be by power

SoapQueen:


Lol. Don't mind me. Truth is they aren't bad. I never used to believe this Zodiac signs but when I encountered Aquarius people and my own sign, I was like wtf??

Thank goodness.

I know it's kinda mystical that you tend to relate with the traits they ascribe to those signs. It's crazy.

SoapQueen:


I'm not sure. It's Aquarius men that possess this sort of selfish, cold-hearted, and mean blooded traits...

You say this with so much authority that I had to check to see whether I'm Aquarius . Turns out I am indeed. But common, you can't possibly and wholly believe this zodiac myths do you?

I share in the OP's desire for solitude and control but I think the poster is quite extreme about the way he handles it. It really is a self-centered and selfish move on his part. Totally unprovoked and unjustifiable since he's not claiming his wife has a role in his decision.

casualobserver:


The problem with democracy is that our collective fate and hence mine is in the hands of the ignorant, poorly educated, uninformed and unenlightened . It’s the same thing all over the world. It is no surprise that the countries making the most progress in the last 2 or 3 decades are not democracies!!!!!

The good thing is that there is absolutely no chance in hell that Peter Ibi can ever get the required 25% in 24 states. So we are safe from the damaging effects of the votes of the ignorant and uninformed.

So really there is no point is dragging this matter.

I wanted to quote your exposito on Anambra debt and liability profile but this one actually made my day.

You'll know we are in trouble as a country when people believe that there was SOMETHING REMARKABLE about that man's tenure as governor.

Perfectbeing:
True.

Even in normal FIFA game that we play at home, when you're not the one playing the game, you will see all the moves that who's with the game pad should have made. You see all the passes he should have made but didn't. How he should have used a up through pass instead of a normal pass, how he should have scored the goal instead of doing pass and score.
But when you hold the controller you'll still make the same mistake, and the person you collected the controller from will start his own round of corrections.

Now this is just ordinary PS 4 game o. Imagine ruling over 200 million people with over 250 tribes. It is when you get there that your eyes will clear.

Nice perspective and the simple reality for anyone who's in the hot seat.

I actually don't envy any would-be president of this country. Because in a country full of selfish, self-centred, and shortsighted groups of people, good luck trying to preach a common cause.

Perfectbeing:
And you think all those changes will come to fruition in a year or two?

Most people supporting PO, do not know that if he actually do what he says he'll do, there will be better hunger (even worse than Buhari's hunger) in the land for at least 2 years before the positive side of his policies will start showing. But his supporter don't know this. They think he'll solve all the problem in one year. They think he will just replicate what he saw in Egypt in 1 year, and things will just get better.
And this kind of too much hope will cause them utter disappointment when they don't see what they want in a short time.

They don't know that insecurity will remain the same or rise for quite sometime before anything meaningful will be done. Even if he changes security chiefs every month, how many would he change. He won't be able to do anything meaningful in 3 months securitywise. In those 3 months, can he stand the heat? When on his first day in office, he hear they bomb one village in Borno and tomorrow they've bombed a city in Kaduna and next tomorrow they've kidnapped school children in Sokoto, can he stand the heat. Or would he resort to blaming the previous government?

The fact he's making all the problem in the country easy to solve will be his greatest nemesis if he gets there.

Do you actually think Fashola didn't think truly with his heart that electricity was a problem that could be solved within 6 months? And here we are after 7 years we're still in darkness.
Buhari could swear with his life that fuel subsidy was a scam when he wasn't President, but when he got there his eyes clear.
Even the most illiterate tout in the motor park knows the problem of this country and solution but take him to power and he'll flop. Everyone thinks the world works the way it works in their head.

The fact that we all think one politician alone is going there to work while the others are going there to worsen the problem should stop.
You never can tell if Nigeria will get better under PO and get worse under Tinubu or Atiku, or Nigeria will get better under Tinubu but worse under PO or Atiku, or get better under Atiku but get worse under Tinubu or PO.
We don't know and we'll never know for sure because it is only one that will be President.

This comment made my day.

I'll question the intelligence of anyone who thinks there's a messiah out there capable of wishing our problems away by accident they become president.

After this Buhari administration, I'll think every Nigerian should have accepted that the problems of this country are too deep-rooted and multifaceted for any would be president to fix alone. Talk is cheap and even a fool can promise to make another a millionaire.

By their antecedents, none of the major presidential aspirant is exceptional in my opinion. They are all just different sides to the same coin.

When you see statements like this coming from a group like EFCC, you'd understand why we have failed as a country.

I wonder how this statement passed 'common sense' test that nobody in that riffraff organisation could challenge the nonsense.

I'd love to actually attend the seminar to be able to question this idiocy.

Why not go for newer generators that have AVR? I believe it will serve you better.

Automatic voltage regulation? Okay. I'll look around more patiently.

Hello guys, nice work!

I intend to get a tokumbo generator.

Is it advisable to go for the Tiger TG 2700? I just need it to keep work moving and a freezer sometimes.

Any experiences with this particular model would be appreciated.

Stranger Things - season 4

The producers said they believe season 4 was going to be their GOT-level season, boy did they have it. This is what a television show should be like.

The writers showed tremendous depth to be able to space out the stars of the show and let them portray to us all the different arcs of the story.

Eleven lost her powers and want it back - it made sense we're treated to some of her past in the facility

It made sense that the government wanted EL and her superpower in check - and it made sense that Mike, and the Byers got caught up in the firing line.

After all the damage Joyce and her gang did in season 3 - it made sense that getting him back wasn't going to be easy.

And it made sense that the crew at Hawkins are doing what they know how to do best - solve Hawkins mysteries.


It has been a tremendous watch. Hopefully, they have a season finale that they deserve. Can't wait!

Hmmm, it's been years since I land here.

Killing eve - final season.

Overall, a solid show and very enjoyable too. Ended the way it should.

Jodie Comer/Villanelle - tremendous actress. When you begin to fall in love with a psycho killer - like eve eventually did in the show, that's when you know you've been treated to an incredible acting performance.

I got a call from Access bank today to tell me that the cv I submitted didn’t have my DOB And class of degree. When I told them, they told me they’d get back to me. Let’s see how next week goes

Have you been scheduled for a test?

A stupid friend of mine,placed 80,000k that man city will win i hope hypertension will not kill him.

All bets are stupid. But betting on City to beat Madrid is a wise decision. So, he's not that stupid after all.

Putin had a reputation as a master strategist, and Russia as a powerful country militarily. However, the war in Ukraine has greatly demystified the capabilities of both Putin and Russia.

Putin goofed big time. The master strategist underestimated Ukraine and overestimated the capabilities of his army. He thought Kyiv and the whole Ukraine would fall to Russia's power within a week but here we are, a month later and Kyiv is still standing. In fact, Putin has scaled back his ambition of conquering Ukraine. He wants to save face.

Putin didn't anticipate this level of sanctions from the west. He thought countries were afraid to ruffle Russia's shoulders.

As for the Russian Army, the west hyped it up because they thought the bad guys were really BAD. But all truth about Russia's military has been revealed to the world. Taking heavy losses in Ukrainian, they are years behind the elite western army in terms of strategy, discipline, tactics, execution and heart. Without the possibility of firing nuclear weapons, nobody would take Russia serious anymore when talking of military capabilities.

Putin and Russia ain't the sh!t

SIRTee15:


EU is not bluffing. That's why they didn't sanction Gazprom because they thought Putin is a rational man who will keep gas flowing.
Now that he's running mad, Europe will reconsider their energy policy. They will now take renewable more seriously.
Germany already has 46% of his energy source as renewables. They just need a push to wean themselves off dirty energy.
Enough of blackmailing.

Well said

Though I don't support the freezing of Russian foreign reserve by western nations. That's theft to me and breach of contract.

Yes, some of the moves by the west are very hard to swallow. But remember what Russia itself is doing? Waging an unnecessary war and destroying years of hardwork in Ukraine. Killing innocent children, unarmed civilians, etc. Doing all this with the most flimsy excuses ever: Denazification or whatever, dictating to another sovereign country how to run their affairs and the type of friends they should keep. All those are basic rights a free country and her citizens are supposed to enjoy.

A lot of countries may have done what Russia is doing in Ukraine and went free, but that's because there's nobody to punish them. Since some are ready to punish Russia today, we'll take it and forget the past.

SIRTee15:
Nobody is paying in ruble. EU is still paying in euros and will continue to do so.
Gazprom wasn't sanctioned by EU so the Russian edict is useless.
EU will pay gazprom in euros, it's left for the Russian bank to change it to rubles or whatever and pay Putin.
It's a meaningless law, just some useless political point for Putin just like his pyrrhic battles in Ukraine.

Besides Putin can't just shut off the gas pipeline like it's tap water. He can’t keep oil and gas from coming out of the ground without capping wells, and storage capacity will get filled very fast if shipments stop cold, and then what what next?

And unlike what some ignorant pro putin are saying, he can't immediately switch to China or any other country such huge volumes. Russia has no pipeline to China or India. Putin will be stupid to stop 60 percent of his budget revenues.
How then will he fund his meaningless war?.
He's bluffing!

Some of the points we keep repeating but pro-Putins refuses to acknowledge any. May be they'll hear this time.

pmc01:


Dear oh dear,

Where will Europe buy gas from subsequently? Is it not from those that currently supply China and the rest?

Would that not force China and the others to look towards Russia to balance the deficit? It will basically be an exchange

The way you put it, there's no pain for either sides then. The west won't get Russian gas and Putin won't get his Rubles.

It's an all out economic war and there can only be one winner.

priestcharm:

Plenty countries will buy cheap Russian oil. Once the contract buying from others expire. It is pure economics. If you pay nepa average of 50k to buy power and a Chinese company comes with same power for you to pay 30k, won’t you port? India will buy cheap Russia crude once her contract to buy from Qatar for example expires.

If a country like india starts seeing Russian gas a cheap, then it must be really cheap then. Besides, that frees up Qatar to sell more to other places like the E.U, right? India and China will never replace western markets for Russia energy exports. Simple.
