Grupo:ask most of the rich in our society if they actually enjoy it. Ask if their family, children, health are making them happy. Some would prefer that all the wealth should go and they have good health. A local adage, culled from the bible says... Iwa bi olorun pelu itelorun, ere nla ni. Meaning GODLINESS (doing things right, not falsifying your age or committing fraud of any kind, not sinning, loving your neogbours as yourself, fearing etc) with contentment is great GAIN( sound health, peace of mind, happy family, comfortability, etc) 1 Like 1 Share |

Don't try it o, it will affect you in future especially if one want to join the service, there are many ways to catch dubious people, even if you change your age, your academic record in your school will show you are actually 30 and not 29. 3 Likes 1 Share |

fairfora: Remember, I don't support age falsification. I mentioned that earlier. However, what should stop doing is attributing everything to non existent spiritual consequences. According to you, rich men who falsified their age don't enjoy their wealth because they endure I'll health. I must say you are a joker. Do poor men enjoy good health and peace of mind? Even amidst their poverty and "uprightness" 1 Like |

Grupo:It all depends on how you describe or your criteria of being poor or being rich. Money and material things are not always yardsticks for riches or wealth as many may see it. My grand father was a peasant farmer, who couldn't even recite ABC. But in his time, he lived uprightly. He didn't even have a car but from his farm proceeds, built a mansion which housed him and his 3 wives and children. He trained all his children well. Led a healthy life and departed at a very ripe age. Now to you or someone else, he was a poor man because he didn't have more than one house, no cars, no millions of naira in his accounts...but his children were well educated. We have such category of people in millions in Nigeria today who are happier and more fulfilled yet, they're not rich. The main reason our society is this bad is because we don't fear God anymore. We don't follow the due process. We manipulate everything, including our age. Many want to get wealth or positions desperately. Only 20 percent (or even less) of our leaders are clean. They keep going abroad for treatment when they got the health illegally. Most of our politicians including Tinubu, buhari, Obasanjo, etc falsified their age. You can imagine Buhari's younger sister being older than him ![]() It wasn't me who said age falsification wasn't good but a trusted man of God whom you might now of mentioned. He wuited the scriptures to back his claims. If you falsify your age, it doesn't mean you wouldn't be rich or successful but there's every grave consequences behind it. God who created you knows the plan of your life and when you should be at where. He can never make mistakes. 1 Like 1 Share |

Just go and swear an affidavit once it's done everything as regard your real age is cancelled. Then proceed and register that DOB on affidavit with national population commission once it's done birth certificate will be issued to you. But the implications is that you can't change the age again so I advice you start with 23 or 25. Goodluck 3 Likes 1 Share |

I have no answer to this but one thing is for sure. Such falsification will haunt you all your life even when you get a job. You will be working in hiding which may affect your peace of mind unless you are sociopath. Also you risk beeing fired if your company dicovers it. I'll advise if you reduce your age like in a job application to get a job, tell the HR the truth once you start working and explain your situation. Age can be a good thing too depending on how you present it. Cuz with older age comes with maturity and valuable life experience. I don't know your past experience but you can highlight those in your CV and cover letter. It's about the value you bring to the company not necessarily the age. Mind you such falsification will be a problem if you ever want to travel out of Nigeria. 2 Likes 1 Share |

henrykaimaife:you know well the implications of this and yet you encourage the OP to go ahead. Have you asked op if he has siblings. Does it mean he would be younger that his siblings which he was older than before. What about his primary school leaving certificate that might have another age in it. I hope you will be here to provide solutions to him when problems arise from it. 1 Like |

. Op Before taking the lying route, I recommend trying something positive. Write a sincere post asking for help. Highlight that your getting 30 with no meaningful sustainable for your living and that your worried about it. Also mentioned your skill set and educational background, if any. Hopefully some Nigerians around will offer you sth. Ask the moderator for help in moving it to front page just as they did for this one. Some people have done this in the past and were lucky to get a good job. You can try other social media platforms as well. Remember! Be open-mindes , confident and humble Good luck! 1 Like |

fairfora:you made superb points about happiness vs wealth untill you brought in God. You said is bad because we no longer fear God. I find this fallacious. Otherwise, explain when our society was ever good because we feared God?. Also, if you ever get to live in some other part of the world that are not religious, you find out the world does not really revolve around religion anylonger. People don't really need the fear of God before they can use thier head to understand Falsification is wrong. 2 Likes 2 Shares |

dayo2me:. Ah! Kilode this guy self �. I admire your soft heart, but yo! You've got to be a go getter sometimes to get what you want. Why should you give a damn about what some Nairalanders think when your main goal should be to get a help YOU need. At times you need to be positively selfish just for once, Don't send any fucking useless body! put YOURSELF first. You've made a great step by identifying you need to establish yourself cuz of your age. Some people in Nigeria don't even realize this untill they are 40. And they become fool forever in thier life. |
