that clip of ngizwe asking that german white woman how long she's been in the country and her saying "since 2007", only for him to reply that she’s “part of us now". did y'all catch how she immediately went, "but i live in cape town-” that’s code for i’m not part of you at all.
This thing has happened to me twice, the most recent was last year. I was on my own o, this babe invited me for her “birthday dinner”. I didn’t know what to give her so i put one bundle of mint 50k in a white envelope. After the dinner the waiter handed me a bill, as i was struggling to understand what was happening, i looked across and saw the same look on the guy sitting opposite me lmao. He asked the celebrant and she said everyone is supposed to pay for their food and drinks. I just took out the money from the white envelope, counted 28k and gave the waiter and put the rest back in my pocket.
If you invite me to your birthday dinner, you’re covering the bill
Don’t invite people out and then ask them to pay for a celebration that was your idea. If you can’t afford to host your guests, stay home and eat your cake😏
I have said it before: I like women a lot. And another thing I like about them is how financially frugal they are. When it comes to money management, I give it to them.
A woman will never look at a fine man and say, “You know what? Let me bless you with ₦500k for being too handsome.” It is men who do dvmb shíts like that.
You’ll never catch women splurging money around men to impress them, and I’m talking about rich women here. Instead, it is men who splurge to impress women.
A woman has nothing to prove to you.
Women will like you, and the highest they’ll do is let you know they do. Then they’ll leave you to do the chasing. They won’t spend money to “show workings.”
You’ll never see a rich woman in a club or restaurant call the waiter and say, “You know what? Look at those fine guys over there. Take a bottle of Don Julio to their table and add it to my bill.”
Again, it is only men who do dvmb shíts like that.
If you’re in a relationship with a woman and you’re going through financial hard times, she’ll tell you that God will provide. But if it’s the other way around, you’ll do a transfer.
A woman you’re dating will not see that you have a business idea and decide to fund it. It is men who do things like that.
Before a woman buys you a pair of shoes or a watch, she has already bought herself two wigs, bags, perfumes, and a few other things.
Women, or at least a decent number of them, have money. They know how to save money. They are arguably PiggyVest’s biggest customers.
The money women have is for them. For their own well-being. And they will never allow shame to pressure them into billing themselves for your benefit.
Women have nothing to prove to you financially, and I rate them for that. It is one of those things I think men should learn from them: financial frugality.
UK doesn’t Play with Good governance to the Point they Changed 6 prime Ministers in 10 years. But when it comes to Africa they Will Encourage Dictators Like Biya & Museveni, And Congratulate Nigeria Every time we Hold a Sham Election. This is Very Sad & Shameful Conduct. 🙄🇬🇧
The reason parents are strict and set many rules for children is because they pay for everything. Once you start earning your own money, you usually gain more freedom.
It also applies to relationships. If someone has to pay for everything, don’t expect to be free from control.
SOWORE BEING SENT TO PRISON: A DANGEROUS REGRESSION FOR OUR DEMOCRACY
I have received, with deep concern, the news of the court’s remand of citizen activist Omoyele Sowore in Kuje Prison.
While the judiciary remains the ultimate arbiter of justice, we must consistently guard against any trend that gives the appearance of state institutions being weaponised to systematically stifle dissent, muzzle the press, or shrink the legitimate space for civic engagement in Nigeria.
A thriving democracy does not survive on the silencing of opposing voices; rather, it is anchored on the robust protection of fundamental human rights, most notably the freedoms of expression and peaceful assembly, as enshrined in our Constitution. Moreover, our society is already strained by insecurity and biting economic hardship; therefore, deliberate steps should be taken, even by the courts, to avoid inflaming the situation.
When we begin to treat citizen critics, activists, and journalists as threats to state survival rather than as partners in building accountability, we signal a dangerous slide toward authoritarianism. Our current challenges, ranging from economic strain to internal security vulnerabilities, require inclusive dialogue and cohesive nation-building, not the incarceration of those who demand a better society.
I urge the relevant authorities to ensure that the rule of law is strictly adhered to, that Mr. Sowore’s constitutional rights are fully protected, and that our security and judicial institutions are used solely for the impartial administration of justice. We cannot build a New Nigeria if we continue to undermine the very democratic structures meant to protect us all. -PO
