This was how your people and your party disenfranchised the masses from voting in 2023 but you were all fine with it, now you’re crying because it has touched you. You haven’t started crying yet. APC’s wickedness must touch everyone including you that is being booted out.
“In all zones, they have been intimidating and stopping us. I want to officially announce my withdrawal from this particular race.”
— Hon. Desmond Elliot officially withdraws from the Lagos State House of Assembly APC primaries for Surulere Constituency I.

Then add Zenith Bank and Probably replace Seplat with Aradel. If not you, can add Aradel without removing Seplat.

As an investor or analyst if you were to review this portfolio with 2M naira spread across these names what are you keeping what are you selling and what stock is missing that should be here?
@Kezmag_ Use Avomine or Bonine (Meclizine). Avoid looking down alot or being so much on your phone while traveling as that would likely cause motion sickness. When it starts, wind down the car windows to get some fresh air. Wearing nose masks can help as well as drinking Ginger Ale.
@DrKalu_ This is very informative. Thank you for sharing Dr.
Quick question for you: With the information provided here, if I want to go into watermelon farming, what particular specie/name of watermelon should I plant? What is the one you sell called?
@TomolaGroup This thread is very insightful.
If one has ₦1m, and already have Transcorp and Oando shares, what other stocks can one invest in with 1m as of today and why? Also how much to invest on each one?
@Crypto_Diet If one has ₦1m, and already have Transcorp and Oando shares, please can you advise on which other stocks to invest in with 1m as of today and why? Also how much to invest on each one?
When asked, I usually say my father’s village by birth and my husband’s village by marriage. However, my state of origin in official documents remains my father’s village.
As one who has lived here for 19yrs,here’s my take:
Owning a credit card is very important if you hope to buy a property or make huge purchases in the future. So you have to start building it now.
Tipping is a must and part of the culture.
You don’t need to change your accent
I have lived in the US for the past five years, and I am not ashamed to admit that…
1. I can’t afford to get a car, and that is the reality. It is not a financially wise decision for me at this stage. One constant question I get is, “You should own a car by now.” I do not, simply because I do not have the capacity at the moment. At the end of the day, everyone knows their own realities and financial dynamics. At the right time, it will happen, and when it does, it will be without pressure or regret.
2. I still do not fully understand the U.S. credit system. I sometimes don’t use my credit card for an entire year. I am honestly unbothered about building a credit score, and it rarely crosses my mind. I am not comfortable owing money through credit. However, I know I will need to become more intentional about it as I continue to grow and evolve.
3. I drink tap water directly from the faucet. I don’t filter my water, and I don’t buy bottled water.
4. I have never tipped in the U.S. before because I do not yet understand the system. It is something I am still interrogating and trying to comprehend.
5. I do not paint a picture that everything is rosy as an immigrant. I can be vulnerable and transparent about my realities, and that is who I am. I am not trying to perform “big girl” energy for anyone. I grew up in a household rooted in contentment, and that ethos has remained my compass. What I know is that, by God’s grace, I have never had to solicit financial help from anyone in my entire life.
6. My accent is part of my identity, and I am not ashamed of it. The objective of language should not be accent erasure but intelligibility. Accents are legitimate linguistic imprints of heritage, memory, and geography.
7. So many days, I feel as though my body resides in the United States, yet my soul and spirit remain anchored in Nigeria. I exist in a liminal space suspended between two worlds, negotiating belonging in both and complete assimilation in neither. There is an undercurrent of deracination, a quiet uprootedness that lingers beneath the surface. It is the paradox of migration: physical relocation without total psychic relocation. I navigate an in-between existence, oscillating between cultural codes, sensibilities, and identities perpetually translating myself. It is not merely homesickness; it is a metaphysical bifurcation, a dual consciousness that fractures and forges me at the same time.
