Food / Re: Group Spotted Eating Frogs At Home by MemoriesAndMe: 2:48am On Mar 20, 2024
Elegantspiker:
Bros, you are the person mixing things up. Toad is the one around us on land with a rough body & considered poisonous. Frog lives only in water, has a smooth and slippery skin like fish and as such edible. I don't know why the Nigerian society mixup the names.

https://foodbay.tv/toad-meat-should-you-eat-it

That's the link I read about both toad and frog from regarding their consumption. I guess that's what got me a little confused onto which is which.

Travel / Re: Which Country Can 10m Take Me To In This Present Economy by MemoriesAndMe: 1:48pm On Mar 16, 2024
Roger3D:
You've got N10m in Nigeria and you want to squander it on a wild goose chase to a worthless foreign country? You need to have your head checked
He's probably still young and want to explore other nations.

My advice to OP is first travel to any country you desire to live, stay there for a moment to understand the place. Then return to Nigeria after seeing it all. Do your analysis and comparisons and make a decision.

If you like it there and can survive there based on what you have seen, then you can consider relocating. Relocating to a new country without knowing what you'd find there may turn out to be a nightmare sometimes.

Some Nigerian folks in the countries you're trying to go to will gladly return to Nigeria it they are sure of having the means to raise the amount You're willing to spend on your relocation to places they're trying to return home from.

Romance / Re: Men Don't Want Me Because I Have 3 Kids - Single Mum Cries Out (pix, Vid) by MemoriesAndMe: 4:02am On Feb 22, 2024
press9jatv:
Nawaoooo, she really needs serious help and prayers here. Why are men running away from her. She will be thinking too too much. See her swollen eyes. She don cried tired

The guy probably wouldn't have sent her out of his place if she was doing ok financially and is capable of supporting herself and even supporting him. Nobody wants anyone to be a liability to them. Who knows if the guy in question is struggling to feed himself, now showing up with 3 kids is enough to scare and even shock him.

Calitoscassius:
That is true, however anyone can become ill with cancer regardless if they drank or smoked cigarettes, there are many cancer patients who has never in their entire lives smoked or drank alcohol. Inhalation of Pollution from vehicle exhaust, generator fumes and burning of waste products like used tyres, car batteries and plastics openly can cause lungs cancer also.

Correct. Cancer can be hereditary too..
Celebrities / Re: Davido's Aide Slaps A Fan For Getting Too Close (Video) by MemoriesAndMe: 8:28pm On Feb 13, 2024
matify83:
That was uncalled for really.

The guy wasn't even expecting the "sucker punch"

His demeanor posed no harm to Davido from the short clip seen.
But why chase Davido around if he's not a nuisance? Not everyone is a fan. If he had a job, will he be following everyone they call 'celebrities' to take selfies with them?

How many bankers, doctors, engineers, businessmen, IT folks etc have time to be leeching on these people they all want to worship and suddenly start making life uncomfortable for? These are just urchins that want to get close to him and he doesn't care about getting too close to them - who wants to be useful to too many people that are useless to them?

Live and let them live too. If they're indeed fans, let them prove that they have ever paid a dime for their concerts or streaming their music. They prefer to just harass them wherever they see them, even at airports, tours and concerts and even their homes. Don't they deserve their own privacy too? That's nonsense in my opinion and they deserve being thought a lesson

Lung cancer come from inhaled contents like cigarettes etc, not from alcoholism. Alcoholics deal with liver and pancreas issues, not lung issues.
Agriculture / Re: Top 10 Producers Of Yam Globally 2022 by MemoriesAndMe: 1:30am On Feb 09, 2024
kenny714433:
The word Yam originated from West Africa. So if the word originated here, I'm sure the crop itself is native to West Africa/Nigeria.

These are things we should be exporting. I'm sure if processed into yam chips and other valuable product, it will be extremely beneficial.

We don't even have working food scientists in the country. Those who studied food science are selling bags/clothes on WhatsApp status. How sad.

Yam is actually exported on daily basis from Africa to western nations. It's actually a profitable business private individuals and firms do once they establish a distribution network. A tuber of yam can sell for as little as $10 in African stores in the US, which is more expensive compared to its actual cost in Nigeria.

How many times do these people buy helicopters for terrorism? We heard about this same news at least twice a year since the past 16 years I think.

They even talked about some special planes from the US to fight terrorism, they arrived in Nigeria and no one heard anything afterwards.

These people just dey whine us ni. They will hire these stuff temporarily, show them off, then return them where they belong after getting cuts from the budget. Same thing happened with Nigeria Air that everyone eventually found out the aircraft was hired from Ethiopian Airlines.

This lady didn't commit any crime at all. So if she was spraying USD, she would have been innocent? USD is sprayed in several parties in the UK, Canada and several other nations, nobody even worried about that. Someone managed to spray Ordinary naira that's worthless, one court suddenly made it seem like a big deal

Lol. What could plants be discussing about? Politics? Current affairs? Football? Sex? Clubbing? In what language?

According to the video, one plant warns the others that caterpillars are feeding on its leaves, for what to happen exactly? For the other plants to suddenly grow feet and run away from that vicinity?

Weird scientists everywhere.
Politics / Re: FG Can’t Recruit Area Boys To Collect Taxes – Taiwo Oyedele by MemoriesAndMe: 8:31pm On Jan 27, 2024
Why then are people going to school and universities are being built everywhere when area boys are likely to make more than them after they graduate? Is that even encouraging education? There are several Nigeria graduates with skills in tax management without jobs, but why pick the area boys above them? Make all man kuku turn area boys then.

oz4real83:
Believe the Nigerian police at your own peril embarassed. When you hear this statement--- "the kidnappers flew into the bush, we are still combing the areas to catch the fleeing suspects", just know that ransom was paid shocked. If not for vigilantes, security situation in Nigeria would have been worse than it is now shocked, we have even heard how vigilantes rescued police officers from kidnappers shocked

You forgot to mention the popular phrase they like to say all the time "Some of the criminals managed to escape with bullet wounds".

Health / Re: NAFDAC Raises Alarm Over Circulation Of Fake Dano Milk In Nigerian Markets by MemoriesAndMe: 11:52am On Jan 25, 2024
How is the public and distributors supposed to know the difference between the fake product and the authentic product?

That's not even stated in all these rants. Tell people how to identify fake products FIRST before telling them to report to your office to report fake items.

What if they died from consuming these fake products? Will their dead bodies walk to your office to report the fake products that killed them and their families?

I would just say there is competition in the market where new products are been introduced..... They should just tell us they want to rebrand with a new name.

If their story is true, I just pity the employees currently working there because folks will end up losing their jobs and their families will be impacted. Let's just hope it's the rebranding you mentioned that's about to happen.

1 child, preferably a girl, then we lockup and throw the key inside ocean!!!
But most people that only have one child always complain that their child has no companion. Im thinking two at least could be better as long as you're able to take care of them. I only have two - a boy and a girl and they're each other's best friends.

Most relationships start declining when financial issues set in. When bills take over a couple's finances, there's a likelihood for marrital issues to set in.
