Education / Re: Got My First Carryover, Please Help I’m Dying by OpulentP: 12:46pm On Dec 08, 2023
Y are u like this? Carryover no be big deal, it's not ur class of degree that matter, it's intellectual/mental ability that matters. Knowing how to navigate ur way is the great deal.

There are several factors that can make someone to fail, so relax!

Many of urs had carryovers, is that the end? Certainly No!

I have a friend who graduated with 3rd class and he's doing greatly now, even better than some 1st class.

Health / Re: My Boss Deceived Me Into Donating My Kidney Over Empty $20m Promise — Driver by OpulentP: 11:10am On Oct 25, 2023
Uhn! This is serious.

The poor will always say they are poor, just to get pittied by the rich, and the rich don't care, instead they sees it as an avenue to shortchanged them.

The poor used to see richies as if it's everything, and it's not. They dnt know healthwise they are richer than some so call rich. Often, they are ingreat to their maker, they dnt see any blessings other than materialistic blessings. Therefore, they don't thank their maker.

It's high time the poor stop making noise about being poor and do more on workingout of poverty. Knowing fully that no rich man will do for you what will equate u to him.

Is there a written agreement? Otherwise, it's just a story for the gods

Crime / Re: I Think I Might Have A Case Of Money Laundering by OpulentP: 2:42pm On Oct 03, 2023
It's necessary for every reasonable business to have a business account, it's enough to exonerate u in this case, if any thing happen.

Gather every evidences u can, get ur lawyer to advice u on what to do. If u will be going to the police station go with ur lawyer

Sometime ago, I heard a story similar to this, some people approached a car stand and choose a particular car and promise to send the money of the said car after collecting account no. About 2 days later some money was transfered truely which is not up to the money for the chosen car. So, they went back to the said car dealer and requested for the money that they can't afford the chosen car and they want their money back.
They offer the car dealer some money that he should remove part and he should give them the balance cash, which he did.

Months later the car dealer was arrested, for kidnapping, that was wen he realized that his account was used to collect ransom.

Had it been, he gave business account, it will be unstood that he's not part of them, they only transact with his business, which is better to arresting someone as a kidnapper.


To all of us business owners, let be careful out there and makesure we don't used personal account for our businesses.

Family / Re: Why Do Marriage Of Uneducated Couples Last Longer Than The Educated Ones? by OpulentP: 3:54pm On Sep 02, 2023
izonborn098:
First marriage is not for two strict people, one has to fall mugu or better still overlook and accept many things.
A graduate is more advance and have some white man mentality because they are educated and can read whatever both online and offline while am uneducated woman has am africa mentality which she knows the man is the head of the house, she can accept many of his mistakes just as u forgive ur children of their mistakes but am educated wife take everything serious because of pride and entitle mentality there by competing with her husband.
You can take advantage of ur uneducated wife in so many occasions compared to the educated one.
If u have an uneducated women who is business minded and has understanding then just open business for her and have a happy family e.g orhobo and igbo women are very good examples, while an educated working woman will some times prefer her work more than the marriage all because she want to be dependent.
Op their are more but just

Uhn! U nail it 99% no objection

May God Increase u in more beneficial knowledge and wisdom (Amen)

Seriously I've seen more marriages of uneducated couples lasting very long than the educated ones, what could be the reason for this?


Less ego
Less entitlement
Much respect for each other
Accepting responsibilities amongst each other
Subordination
Cutting their dress according to their dress
No/Less of social media and films


Even those who marries a secondarian as wife, I know a good number of them, their marriage last and peaceful

Religion / Re: Reno Omokri Replies Christians On 'Jesus Mother Of Mary' Mosque by OpulentP: 4:16pm On Aug 22, 2023
Truthday:
It is somewhat surprising that Nigerian Christians, and even a newspaper like Punch, are surprised that there is a mosque named after Mary, the mother of Christ, in Dubai in the United Arab Emirates.

Those asking Nigerian Muslims to learn from Dubai, are actually the ones who should learn from Nigerian Muslims. They are relatively ignorant of Islam.

The most Islamic state in Nigeria is Sokoto. And one of the most common names in that seat of the Islamic Caliphate is actually the name of Christ. Isa is not a Hausa name. Isa, or Yisa, or Issa, is the Arabic version of Yeshua in Hebrew and Jesus in Greek.

So revered is the name in Sokoto that a Local Government Area is named after Him-Isa Local Government Area, Sokoto.

As a matter of fact, you cannot be a true Muslim if you do not believe that God sent Christ.

When prophet Muhammad, Salla Allahu alayhi Wasalaam, had his first revelation of the Quran, he went with his wife, Khadijah, to consult a man named Waraqah ibn Nawfal. Waraqah was a monotheistic Christian, who revered Maryam (Mary).

When the Quraysh wanted to kill prophet Muhammad (SAW) and the first Muslims, the Muslims escaped to the Christian nation of Ethiopia, where they were protected by the Negus, which was the first hijrah before the hijrah to Medina.

Christ is mentioned by name in the Quran more times than anybody except prophet Muhammad (SAW), and his mother, Maryam, of whom the Dubai mosque is named, is the only woman mentioned BY NAME in the Quran. (Other women were mentioned but not by name).

So, if Al-Quran mentions Maryam, why is it surprising that a mosque is adorned with her name?

Christ Himself is described in the Quran as Al-Masihu Isa (Yeshua The Messiah) in Quran 4.157, 4.171.

So, it is only people unfamiliar with Islam in general, and with Islam as practiced in Nigeria, that will marvel at the Dubai mosque named after Maryam (Mary).

How can you ask Nigerian Muslims, who named a whole Local Government after Yeshua (Jesus), to learn from Dubai, because they named a mosque after Maryam (Mary). Who should learn tolerance from who?

#TableShaker

Tell them! They don't know....

There is another local government in Katsina called Isawa (i.e. the people of Isa)

Health / Re: Notable Deaths Caused By Pharmaceutical Drugs by OpulentP: 3:54am On Jul 13, 2023
It's pathetic and sadden that they have gang against herbal and holistic medicine, by a way of deterring/discouraging people from using it. Even as most of them (doctor and pharmacist) use it.

They will place a patient on a drug for a longtime, even if they know such drug have a side effect and could lead to more complications if used for a longtime.


Doctors will tell you that some diseases can not be cured but can only be managed, becos no proven medicine have been made to cure that disease in the pharmaceutical, giving herbal a chance can surffice

This could just be a trick to rake money from the society, wen they place u on a drug u will always buy till the end of your life. Imagine the amount of money u will have spent. With this, they will be reluctant to upgrade the reasech for new findings that can lead to getting the drug tht can cure such disease.

Thr was this my friend's father who had diabetics, he was place on some drugs with a routine medical checkup, he took these drugs for years, he notice no improvement instead his health was deteriorating they discovered that the drugs he have been taking has affected his organs. The man was traumatized, he was like these drugs are prescribe by a doctor, having spend millions yet he sees his own death coming, and couldn't do anything.

I'm sure thr is no disease that has no cure, every disease tht God Almighty have created thr is a cure to it, except if it has not being discovered.

If government and concerned agency could approve/impliment the use of herbal as means and sources of cure to disease, we will see wonders, serious!

But I know pharmaceutical and some doctors will kick against it.

I pray tht God Almighty grant cure to everyone battling one sickness or the other, Amin

For about six months, I was fixing exhaust, until I met a professional panel beater, who now explain the cause and he get it fix.

cremedelacreme:
Those saying 450K is more than enough to buy a land and start building do not really understand how expensive things are in Nigeria today. I earn slightly above what the OP mentioned, but believe you me, it's not been easy. If you live in Lagos, Abuja or PH and you are married with kids, you will understand. A 2 bedroom flat in an average neighborhood is over 700K. Cost of fuel and car maintenance is over 60/70K monthly in recent times. School fees for 2/3 children is over 200K per term (600/800K annually). Feeding takes over 100K monthly. Utilities and other miscellaneous dey ooo. Best thing na just to save enough and japa.


Smile, Baba salary can't just be enough, the funniest thing is wen your salary increases other . So, one needs a multi source of income, This issue depend on individual oh. Out of no way, there is way.

In most cases background/cycle matters alot too. Some people are used to lavish lifestyle.

It's a matter of down-sizing ur expenses and Saveup and start a second source of income.
