I honestly cannot watch anything that has Yvonne Orji as a representative for Nigerians.
I cannot watch anything that has these Diasporans that were not raised in Nigeria, as representations of the people, because all they present, is a caricature.
I experienced what @Sisi_Yemmie has been saying here on the TL today!
I was coming back from an outing and decided to get a few items from Bokku Mart.
I bought only 3 items. The attendant asked if I wanted a nylon bag and I said yes.
He said the bag was #100. But why did he deduct #1700 for the nylon?
I didn’t check the receipt until I got into the car, then I remembered and decided to check.
I went back inside and asked what the #1700 was for. He said it was an error and that I had to wait for the supervisor to fix it!
This pissed me off! He could simply have given me my change instead of making me wait for their error.
Apparently the supervisor was in on it too. He came out and quickly asked the guy to give me my change.
I can’t imagine how long this has been going on! @bokkumart, call your staff to order.
Business owners, please be very involved in your business and don’t trust any staff.
#1700 is not a lot of money but imagine doing this to 5-10 customers a day!
While Jabari Stephen Brown (the pilot who won the MrBeast challenge) was initially detained by authorities in Paraguay, he was quickly released by order of prosecutors after they found no evidence of his involvement in the drug smuggling... now show pictures of the captain who flew the plane.. I wanna see something 🤔
Pastor Adeboye emptied the infrastructures of their fellowships in the North East campuses into the IDPs in Borno, Yobe and Adamawa.
When we got to Borno in 2017, we met empty spaces. I wrote a letter to him from Maiduguri, I told him all we needed, running into millions of naira. He sent the money to us. Everything I wrote in the letter was sent. I would write to him every quarter giving him update about all of us in the fellowship and request additional money. He will still send it.😅
I coordinated one of his largest intervention program in Maiduguri. A training and certification course for students in Architecture, Urban planning etc… thousands of students from Ramat Polytechnic, University of Maiduguri etc… it was one of his programs to uplift a society battered by insurgencies and the economy of the state crashed. A program meant to give a future to them by upgrading their skillset.
His greatest strength of not showing off is the reason many people, even his church members do not know 2% of his works.
I joined @t30devotion today for the first time and it was really a nice time with God. Here are a few things I noticed:
- The lady who took the Bible reading read it so well that it was easy to follow from the beginning to the end. 🥰
- The physical audience were all present with their hard copy Bibles which made it feel like a real family devotion.
- There were no phones in sight, everyone was fully present.
- The short exhortation and prayers really pumped me for the day ahead.
- It felt like a real family devotion. 🥰🥰
You're vexed at the RGCC's response? Lol. They're right.
Might have been impolitic o but they're right.
An 84 year old man is on his way out. The future is your own. Fight or die.
I’m so tired of salt+pepper+garlic powder+onion powder+ paprika always being the main seasoning blend 😅 I feel like my food comes out tasting the same .
What are your special seasonings blend ?
Even after the relationships end, the men remain the main characters in her story while she stays in the supporting role, with her worth measured by how well she served them. Her whole brand is “look how good I was to you, you should've kept me”
Acts of service men are dangerously attractive.
Fixing problems, making sure you’ve eaten, charging your phone, carrying your things… that’s romance to me.
“People know exactly what they’re doing”
Until it’s you. Then suddenly, your intentions matter. Everyone wants grace for themselves, but rarely wants to extend it to others.
Single sex schools give many girls something surprisingly rare: the experience of seeing women occupy every level of authority without explanation or exception. Entire institutions run by women. So no one will ever convince me that women are incompetent.
lmao had a crush on my ICT teacher in jhs. he was about 24 &all the girls were crushing on him. this man stood in front of the whole class to let us he’s not attracted to us and that we prolly dk how to wash our panties properly😂😂continued to show a picture of his grown gf
“Marry your best friend” is one of the most romanticized things the internet ever sold people 😭. Married your best friend but you're putting divorce lawyer on speed dial after few months 😂.
Friendship is important in marriage, yes; but your wife is not just your buddy. Your best friend might let things slide, laugh things off, or tolerate your nonsense for peace. Your wife won’t. She will challenge you, hold you accountable, demand growth, emotional presence, consistency, and intentional love.
That’s because marriage is deeper than friendship. It’s responsibility, partnership, sacrifice, and commitment.
The moment you reduce your wife to “my guy” energy, she can start feeling emotionally neglected while still being physically present in the marriage.
Your wife isn’t your homeboy with benefits. Love her deeply, but respect the role differently too.
