Purchasing power is low.The minimum wage of a civil servant over their is below 25k.

Food just have to be cheap. they got no choice.

Remember early last year in Bauchi, when Rice was sold for 1,300 per Congo down south, I was buying a module of rice for #700/module, beans #600. even with this cheap price, you go see Maigida dey sleep for shop cuz market no dey.

Food was really cheap then

You're either not sincere with your prices or food is still very cheap up North.

Food has to be cheape cuz they farm over there a lot and if you sell expensive food, who will buy from you??

Foodqueen:




Don't come and explain to us how your wife spent 500h to cook tuwo for family of 7 o...

Godfullsam:


You have bitten more than you can chew..
You don't throw stones while living in a glass house .
I don't think the entire south east region is bigger than ondo and Ekiti state.
Yet, see how your backward region is littered with several communities that have been for yrs .

When you point a one finger @ someone, your remaining fingers will be pointing @ U!

Which one is Ondo and Ekiti?? the 5 states in that region fit into Ibadan alone and there'd still be lotta hectares of lands more yet no development

zonefree talking bout SW backward is rather funny cuz what region in the South seem the useless the most if not SE? nothing of usefulness, no development whatsoever and no known tangible resources to help develop Nigeria. that's why I laugh anytime one retard fellow thinks Nigeria cannot survive without the SE and their deluded inhabitants

Bankowner:
Bro!
Go and work and make money.
Take care of yourself then you'll see how sweet marriage can be.

Taking care of himself doesn't determines how sweet marriage is. that to me is delusional

GlorifiedTunde:


There's nothing wrong with marriage if you're married to the right person. You people should stop making the unmarried people scared of marriage.

Your boys didn't take good care of themselves, it's that simple.

A man is a provider, it's very difficult to do that these days - providing for your wife and kids.

But there are times you need to think about yourself also,

... buy better clothes, do a little skincare, use nice bathing soap, body cream, sunscreen, roll-on, oil perfume etc.

... Do your grooming weekly, haircut and beards!

... Exercise if you're getting too big, cut down on excessive alcohol and stay healthy!

Not everything is until you have big money!

If you talk bout getting married to the right person, I guess you mean women that help you grow in most areas esp Financially. but then, how many of them help you grow financially esp in this Nigeria??

With the current situ in Nigeria, do you have an idea bout how much better clothes cost?? I priced a vintage shirt recently, I intended to get 3 at least but the price I was given (12k each) made me settle for just 2 which he sold for me at 22k

Imagine you as a married man earning probably 150k monthly, do you mean it'd be easy to let go of 22k for just 2 shirts?? No. instead what will be on ur mind is how to use that same money to feed the family and take care of the Kids needs.

This isn't bout making unmarried men scared, but let's spill the white truth. Bro, Marriage in Nigeria doesn't favor men at all, it takes a whole lot from you and leaves you with little or absolutely nothing and if you're not careful, it'll shorten ur life's span even bfr time or leaves you utterly broken.

For any Guy that loves his life or wants the best for his future, Marriage should be the least of his plans and it'd be good if he never enters it at all even

I agree with Gadafii Marriage is a trap no guy should be entrapped in easily

I've told her that the other child is not mine because i don't know what to believe anymore, though i have plans of conducting paternity test on the second child when i heal or have the resources.

Traveling abroad is not the cure to ur Depression. how do you even travel to a foreign land with just hope at ur disposal?? Bro you'll suffer hell

And if we ask what country, it'll be nowhere but UK

TotoIsGud4boy:
Most of the Nigerian Military is filled with cow@rds, their ogas (superiors) treat them as thrash so how do you expect them to treat an average citizen? When confronted with strong men even their numbers can’t save them. The Nigerian military is an institution created to oppress the weak not to protect us from foreign and domestic threat, haven’t you wondered why the Nigerian military haven’t won any war against banditry or terrorism? That’s where they make their wealth to send all their kids abroad and lobby for political/national interests while this empty skulled recruits that have been severely and mentally molested by their oga (superior) will experiment on bloody civilians as they call it… it’s only in Nigerian military you hear them call citizens bloody civilians, if insurrection happens now all of them will run away with their family to barracks or forest and the unlucky ones will be eaten alive by the bloody civilians while their so called superiors will abandon them here and relocate abroad… The average Nigerian soldier is a simp, they can’t fight 1 vs 1.

The day of reckoning is coming, they’ll be massive genocide in the Nigerian military if this non-sense of harassing citizens does not stop. no one will be spared, including you their oga (superior) reading this now, you will not have where to hide.

lol I mean just Lool

Normally if I was a social media activist, I don’t think I’ll want to waste my means of generating revenue on a baseless topic like this.
Verydarkman is not a saint. All these things he’s doing, all these good works is for recognition from the right people.
Why would someone come out to praise a failing president if he’s not getting paid for it? At this point, only those in APC are permitted do suck BAT’s dik, because they’re benefiting from the party.
I used to think that the gorilla is doing all his works because he actually cares. “Fool me once”
Don’t get me wrong, I was happy with the Bobriski case. But he does all these things for his ego and pride.

Oga he wasn't praising Tinubu. he's only starting the fact

If this Jet is in the classes of Vehicle, it'd definitely be the Korope of Jets cuz everything bout the build up is in a quick summary even the sits.

shouldn't be that expensive tho

Racoon:
Hehehe! Let him come eat the left over corn, cassava and agbado that has been reserved for him back home. The snitch is disgusting.

What made you think he was fit in the first place??
Y'all deserve the regret y'all have atm

MEEVEET:


Same thing that would happen to nigeria if igbos go

I indeed read a funny joke today

PureFace1:
African Union should be at the fore front of matters like these, what's wrong with African Leaders ?

They once said they're not Africans but Arabs. why should African leaders be concerned??

madridguy:
Where’s Alaa Salah a.k.a Lady Liberty of the Sudanese Revolution (also known as Woman in White), i hope she's at the war front now. Because you cannot put your country on fire and run away.

What did she do??

Mumu can they handle it?? it's not by showing off

sammiewrite:
Prioritize investing in/associating with the M gender and you'll never regret it. They're the ones that genuinely cares and understands reciprocity. My first gift I got ever in my life was a perfume and complimentary card way back in 2006. The last gift I got was a 100k cash gift last year from a friend from undergraduate days. I have also got friends who employed me in their firm when I was out of job. As recently as yesterday, a brother of one my friends sent me a job link that pays £18/hr. For any of these men, I don't think I did a lot or anything at all, I don't even think I deserve any of the things they did for me.

In contrast, I have a female sibling from the other gender who I tied my personal growth down for five years just to make sure she becomes a lawyer. Today she is a lawyer and recently got 500k free cash from her state government. Even ordinary belt, she didn't deem it fit to get me as a token of appreciation.

Lol It's good you learnt the hard way

BJanta:


Marrying the woman I married. An innocent girl turned out to be all ache and pain.

Sorry to ask, what's still keeping you in it??

Myclubmycash:


To the younger people, your elders are not always right. Sometimes, you need to be resilient and not look for people's opinions, especially when you are pursuing your dreams.

Aswear. I'm chasing a dream and passion now and some folks are telling me here what if it's not God's plan for you?? tor tell me God's plan now, they're not saying anything

RussellRutherfo:


True.

We need guns to protect ourselves.

If criminals have gun. Imagine how many criminals will be scared knowing other legitimate citizens own guns too.

You guys don't think. Owning guns hasn't stopped robbery in the US. you're even more twice in danger of getting shot than in a society where guns are scarce.

Cuz Police or thieves in the US approach you having in mind that you might have a gun, so they approach you with fear and a safety off gun and any slight uneasy body movement will cost u ur life bfr knowing you don't even got a gun on you. In a country like Nigeria that houses trigger happy police thousands of innocent lives will be lost either u own a Glock or not and there are excuses of fear to exempt them from punishments.

Always ensure you think and be careful what u wish for

LalastiklaIa:


That thing annoys me ehn. He was the only child of his parent that means the loss should be very painful but if he was one among 10 kids the parents move on the next day.

I have vowed never to father a kid coz what’s the essence of it all

Both wife and kids man. They're both useless to a Male race. spend so much and gain absolutely nothing

Greatday8:
That's why am an advocate for gun license in Nigeria, imagine if those victims had a Glock with them, those criminals would have chilled out

This comment is coming from the senseless part of ur brain which is the most abundant. How do you wanna pull out a Glock on a thief that know you're armed??

Education in Nigeria is a total mess
