@HonitelHQ The way i reversed many of these ehnnn. Me that use to brush and baff in 10 seconds, now I'll spend 20 mins in the bathroom. I'll finish food in 2 minutes, now I take my time. I wake up lateeeee.
@Favour_Kammie Very true. I found out at 23 that my dad is left-handed because he was breaking coconut with his left hand. I was like why don't you use it often and he spoke about the treatment he received growing up 😒😒
It’s why I find it an ignorant and selfish take when a woman, an educated one for that matter, speaks against feminism.
That you have an education, can earn and have a sense of agency as a woman is a product of feminism.
For those of us in Church circles, It’s NOT a coincidence that a woman was entrusted with the message of telling the other disciples that Jesus had risen from the dead. Jesus existed in a deeply misogynistic culture and yet never for once eroded or discarded women. He was changing culture. Egalitarianism is core to the christian faith. God already spoke ahead of time in Joel 2:28 that he will pour out his spirit on ALL FLESH. He went ahead to mention Sons and Daughters. To see women as less is to be misogynistic. It doesn’t matter if you’re using christian language to prop it up. May God open our eyes.
All of you GenZ’s and unlearned millennials that clown Nigeria asking mockingly “why are we even called Giant of Africa, self?” this is why!
In the 60s-90s, Nigeria was literally Africa’s sugar daddy, $20m here, $10m there, and so on and so forth to other African countries! we didn’t only talk about Pan-Africanism we put our money where our mouth was.
Also, at independence, many African countries didn’t have as many educated professionals as Nigeria. In a lot of African countries that gained independence after us from 1963 onwards, the first chief justice, auditor general, surgeon general, vice chancellors of universities were all Nigerians! The first black chief justice of Botswana was Akinola Aguda, the first black chief justice of Gambia was Emmanuel Ayoola, when the portuguese left Mozambique in the 70s Nigerian health care officers (doctors and nurses) were sent to shore up their healthcare system from collapse bcos they just didn’t have enough qualified doctors. after all said and done we sent over 10,000 professionals across africa and the carribeans to help them incubate their newly independent nations
should we even talk about the ECOMOG troops in the 90s that 70% majorly funded (spent over $3b+) and equipped by Nigeria with Nigerian soldiers forming 75% of the peacekeeping force? ECOMOG led by us was highly responsible for ending the Liberian and Sierra Leonean civil wars.
I won’t even go into details of what Nigeria contributed to the South African anti-apartheid efforts!
Nigeria gave and gave and forgot to pay attention to its own development and today we’ve become the pariah amongst nations!
As a Nigerian (or black person) to donate blood in the UK, you must not have travelled back home or to a malaria-prone country. I have told myself that sorry to them, they won't see my blood. How will I not travel back home?
Went for blood donation, did all the screening, tests, and donated the blood. Wanted to be a good resident like @Wizarab10 who was doing it periodically. This was around October 2023, and I arrived the UK October 2022 (1 year o)
2 days later, letter from NHS advising me to stop donating blood as I am from Nigeria, with only one year in the UK, and malaria one thing one thing......and the donated blood has been destroyed in line with protocol.
I didn't read the full letter but I vowed never to donate blood again.
@the_beardedsina My own bad experience was in Mulligan hotel, Yaba after paying almost 1 million naira during my wedding period. I argued everyday with the restaurant manager. Our room had issues, their bathroom is a wet one so when you shower, the toilet showers with you too. Never again 😒
ODUIMITETE - A GIRL-CHILD'S NIGHTMARE.
The Urhobo word "ODUIMITETE" literally means "Children fuck@r" as the English man put it "Pedophile".
It sounds serious, it should be taken seriously, but it is not. In fact, it is one of the most trivial matters in Urhobo communities.
Nigerians finding out two tribes from the same country, with people who look just like each other, happen to have similarities in their cultural attire and scarf. Omg shockingggg
Since amalgamation, we’ve been fighting over everything. who owns oil, who owns gele, who owns Ichafu and who owns Egusi.
Meanwhile none of us own stable electricity, clean water, or basic human rights.
We are fighting over the décor of a burning house
@MsRade92 these are some of the visuals i've managed to find that show how it presents - it can be much less obvious and easier to overlook. please be safe everyone <3
@chudy_jnr Make una try. Something simple as see my mum is glowing or see my mummy na will make her happy. That's what my brother does. He will like, post her on his status, and hype her. End of story.
the most performative part of job searching is sitting in an interview and explaining your deep passion for a company you genuinely did not know existed until you saw the listing three days ago.
