Ejanla07:



Pls show us picture of bush baby

That is not a bush baby although they are related, this is specifically called a "Potto" or "Bosman's Porto", they are only found in Nigeria, Cameroon and I think Guinea.
Their bite can be very powerful and their saliva contains compounds which inflames the wound.
A bushbaby is kind of different although I would expect Nigerians to classify anything that looks like this as a bushbaby

You are wrong, the largest reptile is the slat water crocs but their are lots of reptiles bigger than this turtle like the green anaconda, Komodo Dragon etc.

Naija matter tire me, everything must be eating. I don't think most persons brain has developed fully in this country.

That's not possible, this is the 4th HEAVIEST reptile behind the 3 crocodilians (Salt water, Nile and the Orinoco crocodile). Those crocodilians are the only reptile heavier than the leatherback sea turtle.
Green anaconda and comodo dragon are not even within the top 15. You still have the American crocodile,
American alligator, Gharial, Mugger crocodile are way heavier than your average comodo dragon (way too small) but they not as heavy as the leatherback sea turtle.

Ja, I learnt it takes 3 months to do A1 in Goethe, but can it be done in 1 month possibly I need to get a private lesson teacher and how much is it in (if I have to do it there)

As I said earlier, it depends.... Price and duration differs with institutions. Some are subsidised, some are not, some school provides it for free though it takes a whole semester.

manneger2:
Pls if I want to present my company as sponsor for my stay in as student, what and what am I to submit during my visa interview, and pls if this company is not that big will it be accepted?

The sponsor dey ? I don't think a sponsorship letter from Nigeria will suffice, if so, then that must be very new.
Do yourself a favour and read this and the previous thread.

trojrobert:

Lol, oluwa is involved
Hmm, but from reality how long does it take to do A1 in Nigeria, how much is it
How long does it take to do A2 in and how much

Check Goethe Lagos website for more details. I think you will get the cheapest and most standard teaching there. For those who stay in Portharcourt, I heard it's around 5 times the price. In Goethe, it should take 3-4 months to complete a level.. in , it depends.

Hmmm
That is the leatherback sea turtle. The largest of all the turtles and the second largest of all reptiles behind the crocodiles.
This turtle right there is has been listed as Vulnerable and even endangered in many climes as their population is in decline.

I hope though this one is a dead one washed up on the shore, if so, men, the carion is just a house of infected meat, even if it came out on the shore to lay it's eggs, their flesh contains too much oil and fat to be considered palatable.

Only in Nigeria and third world country will you see all these things. So, a pure water hawker shouldn't look good.

In Europe, one can hardly tell the difference between a cleaner and a banker because as far as you are working, you must be enumerated to a certain level.. there is dignity in labour and a reward for it.

If you have a house help, you must compensate the person to a certain level where the person can afford to look good, feed well, in fact, in many cases be able to buy things like a car etc. When everyone is in the train, it's hard to differentiate between the rich and the poor, between a waiter at the restaurant and a rich politician. Respect is mutual, employers must not mistreat and employee, mutual respect and vice versa.

I know Mr. Eazi might need better PR but saying that he is not huge is not true. This guy is big internationally considering that he is relatively new in the scene.
His song, Leg over has almost 30million views on YouTube and "pour me water" is doing so well.

And who is William Uchemba?

He was a child actor, he was used in every nollywood movies around a decade or a decade and half ago just like that Zak Orji's son and he was good.

May be you should seek fertility treatments madam... Don't let the claims of 'miracles' alone fool you..

I am a Christian but the problem I have with our fellow new age African Pentecostals is that they use these type of testimonies to give people false hope and aid false judgements. This woman now wouldn't even reserve a little credit to her treatments so that others can be guided.

Oga scientist,what is the Medical solution to this ,you said making it impossible right ,so what are the Possibilities ,the solution. ...This should not upset you but rather challenge you to profer solution to such case .

Penis captivus doesn't happen in Africa alone as you might wrongly think.. it happens everywhere although the chances of it occuring are rare.
It's just that couples panicked in most cases that's why they get stuck for a long time.. doctors advice people in that situation they get their mind off the sex, and relax, the blood gorged up in the penis will subside and the penis will become limp and the couples will be free.

There have been a research which shows that the feeling "guilt" during sex might increase the chances of this happening... The mechanism of the so called voodoo may be just be to aggravate the sense of guilt in the woman which then triggers this spasm that leads to this occurrence apart from that, the phenomenon is well known in the field of science although the occurrence is low in human.
Note that this occurrence is very common in many insects and animals like dogs.

The only Paul Okoye WE I know is rudeboy

Have you ever heard of upfront and personal bookings? Some kind silent rich billionaires. Rudeboy would have answered "sirs" to this guy when they just started their career but some people don't fancy the limelight so much.

Toktee:
Must you people argue everything?
My own dad died at 105,the imidiate sister died last year at 126,it does not exist in your family does not mean is not possible.

126? Lol who recorded it? Proof! The fact that someone is shrivelled and old because of the weather doesn't translate to being old. For your father to be 105, you should be at least 80 years. Our fathers and mothers married when they were at most in their late teens.

santopelele:
BRO NA SLAVERY MENTALITY DEY WORRY YOU, EVEN MY GRAND MUM IS STIL ALIVE AND IS 121 YEARS

Any verifiable proof? That's the problem. Facts are necessary. And again, if your grandmother is 121, given the average age of mothers in her days, your dad/mother should be 95 years and you around 65, assuming your father birthed you at 40 years (which is not most likely cos the figure should be a decade lower given the demographics in their time).
Given all these odds, without a verifiable document at birth, it's really hard to determine this.

Obidikejr:

Danke for your prompt response. Really appreciated...

1.When you say develop your skillset, The IT you meant is it Information Technology or Industrial Training?

2. The question of the built/construction will like to know what's the nature of the industry over there?

2a. How often have you seen African supervise or head construction site, as site engineers.

3. Are you in the country right now? How long have you been?

3a. Have you been able to get a part-time job? How long did it take you to get one?

4. How have you been able to manage school & work schedule?
E.g in Nigeria we still have lectures that starts 9am & ends 6pm... How do you cope?

5. What is the most sort after job in ? Although not necessarily the highest paid.

6. You know, I have met a few Nationals online, ladies specifically, and they are really open about dating Africans... In reality,over there & based on your experience .. How open are ladies towards dating African?.. And our naija girls over there, their head done cool down?

1. Information Technology
2. No idea. May be architecture.
3. Ease of jobs depends on the city, read the main thread for more details.
4. Different people different courses different jobs different strategies. You have to work on your schedule.
5. IT, I might be wrong.
6. Experience differs but generally, German ladies are very independent, I don't think many are so open to relationship that much, not to you and not to their kind. Most meet their boyfriend early in their early teens. At least, the gist of the craze for BBC is not something i see here.

Read the thread for more details..

More like.... Bought a car for his side chick.. still all good!

Obidikejr:


Guten tag Eke40seven , sorry for posting this here but I had to track your last post so I could get your much needed advice soon as I can... I have been a silent follower of your posts on the German visa threads. I nearly made it over in 2016, but due to the fact I started my application late I decided to let it go, I was in my 3rd yr in school ,now 'm in my 5th & final yr and I wish to go for my M.Tech/M.Eng in soon as am done with my NYSC (2019)...

I have a few questions and would be most grateful if you can provide me with answer ...

I have a over who has advised, according to her own words >>>>

[/b] you might not be able to get ission immediately and it doesn’t work so easily so you might have to opt for the easiest way to get your first 1 year visa , which is, apply for a Studienkolleg once u reach B2 level in German. Here they prepare you for Uni (don’t show your degree in the embassy they won’t give you a visa. Nigerians have a bad reputation so even with ission you might have visa issues,. The Studienkolleg It’s like pre degree and you can apply to any Uni once you’re here while low key perfecting your German in the Studienkolleg and learning other things[b] <<<

1. Pls how True is that?
Is getting a masters ission that hard?
I wish to apply for a construction/Built Engineering course.. I will be graduating with a strong 2nd class upper and hopefully a 4.0 on graduation.

Is getting a visa that hard if you apply with your B.Tech amongst the documents? ...I mean withholding my B.Tech cert from the Embassy and applying as a fresher to a Studienkolleg so as to get a visa faster?

2. Averagely,..based on your knowledge of it ..how much does a Bachelor & Master's international student earn monthly for starters?... Note, I wish to apply for an M.Tech

3. What is the nature of the built/construction Industry there, as a masters student how easy getting a job in one of the built firms...

What are the job opportunities for me after graduation as I plan to pursue a PhD as soon as possible.

I have a 1 yr field work experience in building (residential/commercial) construction. And subsequent times during my 5yrs of school.

With knowledge of design softwares for:
Architectural design
Construction supervision
Project management
Project cost analysis
Structural design.

I have 2yrs (early 2020) left before I move over, so i have started a self taught German class now which I hope (by God's Grace) to diligent follow so my German will improve to atleast a B1/B2 before I begin my applications.

Danke Sher.

Anticipating your earnest reply.

I will try to answer the most important questions for now.
1.You have a Bsc you don't need SK certainly. But German is important to get jobs easily and for everyday life and survival. You apply to as many as possible, there are no guarantees, the higher you GP the better your chances

2. Earn? When I don't understand. Better German better opportunities in all sectors.
have changed their laws regarding students so it's now easier for students to get visas.
3. PHD or job may be different people different opportunities, just develop your skillset especially IT and learn German.
I hope you find this useful.

Environer:


Read how many highlighted conjectures in your little silly retort and you would understand how fleetingly idiotic you are. The title says German girlfriend and you are here lying about them being already married. We don't know the full story behind them so stop bleating like a deranged goat

Open your grasshopper sized brain you intellectual sloth. The headline says "girlfriend" but you even reposted a picture a friend of his posted earlier showing their marriage in a registry in EUROPE. What does that say? Now flap your 'LAWMAesque' self out of sight and do something about your sorry life, your silliness stinks to high heaven!

Environer:


You are foolish, ignorant, ill-mannered and watery-mouthed. Du!!! The Europeans know that in Nigeria anything can be forged. They know that the Nigerian aduro seeker can stage a fake marriage and get fake papers even without the lady having a clue. So photo evidence such as you will get in a traditional marriage in a Nigerian setting will help to add credence to the process. This is just the beginning of the process for the guy. The lady has to now file for him to have his status changed to a legal resident. I know another guy from Umuahia who did same (marriage) in Nigeria and the girl returned to to file for him, only to change her mind. The guy is still in Umuahia as we speak. So this guy has started something but he is yet to finish it. I wish him good luck.

You are a dim witted fooool with half baked education. If only your peanut filled neathernthal brain could fathom anything and know what logic is, you would understand that European marriages have registries and if he is already married in Europe as evidenced in the picture, that is all he would have needed and it's more valid than any other thing he could ever present. But would your dandruff infested skull understand this concept? Nope? But you would rather dance around the thread like an mentally deranged Bonobo misinforming people at will.

He doesn't need any more proofs of marriage if he had already done that in because it takes a lot of investigations to even pull one off in the first place.
For your information, it is gathered that the guy in question already has a legal residence and that woman in question, a doctor. Now put your rabid tail between your legs and move on with your sad crises plagued life. Smelly imbecilic skunk!

Environer:


Don't know for sure! You have to ask them who ed through the process. But I believe all picture evidences with all the crowd in a traditional wedding may also help to facilitate the process.

I think you don't have an in-depth knowledge about anything. You are just making sweeping generalisations from tit bits of information you have.
What other "process" does he need for validation when he had already signed the papers? What?
Do you know the guy's history? You don't, so I would advice you stop running your mouth spoiling a reputation you know nothing about.
Yes, I understand how desperate aduros in this can be but make baseless conclusions. As you can see he has signed the most important paper, the rest might just be a way of making the woman see his African side instead of throwing a party in .

Enjoying his one Nigeria!
Our 'unity' is non-negotiable.
People need to find a lasting solution to these problems.

PourlhG:


Cool story, good point...but what you fail to note is most of the roads in Europe are very smooth, and good and motorists drive orderly, hence, the roads are bikable. Come and try riding bicycle on the Ogbonge streets and roads in Nigeria...you will be blessed with body pain or danfo sending you and your bike comot for road

In the case I big cities in Lagos, it can be limited to Inner streets, one can't ride on federal roads. But for smaller non busy towns that are not so populated, Bicycles will come in very handy.
There are bicycles for Nigerian rough roads like mountain bikes and some BMX.

olaniyi50:
do you own a bicycle

Of course, 3 bikes, a road bike, a mountain bike and a city bike and I am gonna get a collapsible bike to my collection soon.

Mushrik:


Small thing and you start criticizing the country. All countries in the world have their own issues so stop making noise.
It works for them but can't work here in Nigeria and they're also trying to save some money by using a bicycle.

Its through constructive criticism that a country becomes better. Do you know why apps always need updates? Ratings and criticism, that's how you can be better.

If only you bothered to read, I highlighted the advantages of using a bicycle.
I mentioned health, environment, cost effectiveness, flexibility and the rest but what do I know...

Good.

In Europe, and Holland especially which are both light light light years ahead of Nigeria in all ramifications, almost everyone has a bicycle. They use it to run around instead of using a car or a bike.
Bicycles are environmental friendly
They keep you fit...(Look at their legs, nicely formed and shaped unlike most of ours that look like toothpicks)
They are manually powered although there are e-bikes
Bicycles and are fun
Many professors in the university come to class with bikes

But in Nigeria, riding a bicycle means you are poor, everyone wants to flaunt false wealth.. you sow seeds to buy land rover(it has it use too though) and the likes, when the solution to the problems of 'inner street transportation is by making use of bicycles.

Look at people running their mouth on misleading headlines.
Every country deport illegal immigrants.
You need to see how Africans are taking advantage of the laws here and you will feel nothing but shame.
No country will deport you and give you over 3,000 euros. It's never done.
They can use that to set up a business for themselves. It's better than suffering and doing drugs.

River state should be militarised.
The insecurity in that state is becoming unbearable.
Cultism should be fought tooth and nail and people who are ready to lay down their guns rehabilitated.

Wike is the worst thing to happen to that state, he empowered these killers.

I don't think it's fair though...
Tiwa Savage can't sing to save her life. She relies on the CD.

Even Davido can't sing live. Depends on his CD.
I wonder why they identified this guy only..
Same with Olamide, I don't think he even re his lyrics.

The people who have proved themselves live are
Tuface, WizKid, Flavour, etc.

Every Scripture in the bible is talking to christians. So stop the self deceit
2 peter 1:20-21
20 Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.
21 For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.

2 Tim 3:16
All scripture( whether in the old or new testament) is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:

Rom 15:4
For whatsoever things were written aforetime(paul refering to the scriptures in the old testament) were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope

Are you so ignorant to undertand the above verse.... you are funny try to deceive yourself that the tithing scripture is not applicable to modern day Christians and believers. Big fat lie from the pit of hell.

If the Apostles or Jesus receive tithe.. we are not told that they did..but how can we know if they did...by taking a cue from Heb 7:8.. Paul, the chiefest of the Apostles validating tithing...Heb 7:8 it stated clearly that "And here men(God ordained servants of God) that die receive tithes; but there he( the resurrected Jesus Christ) receiveth them(your tithe you pay in church), of whom it is witnessed that he liveth".

The levite is a priesthood office God commanded the tithe to be brought to. Who is a priest. ..Abraham paid tithe to Melchisedeck..who is a high priest of the most high God.
Now who are the mosern day priest? They the men of God called into the the 5 fold ministry offices of Pastors, Prophet, teachers, evangelist and Apostles.

Who are the modern day priest? From Mal 2:7..we see a priest as also defined as a man who carries the knowledge of God to feed God's people with, Which in modern day Christianity are Pastors, Teachers, Apostle and prophets who teach the God's word to the people of God in church as directed by God now comparing that with Jer 3:15. We see pastors are asked to feed the people of God with the knowledge of God. So priest are pastors also. So trying to confuse yourself on who are the priest and who is not can't achieve anything.
Jesus is the high priest presently sitted on the right hand of God.Heb 4:15.That is why paul said in Heb 7:8when tithes are brought to the men that die( the priest) receive them, in heaven also Jesus.. the high priest himself also receives them)

Jesus Speaking on tithing validating it in Matt 23:23(NLT)
What sorrow awaits you teachers of religious law and you Pharisees. Hypocrites! For you are careful to tithe even the tiniest income from your herb gardens, but you ignore the more important aspects of the law--justice, mercy, and faith. You should tithe, yes, but do not neglect the more important things.

Untill you are able to bring scriptures instructing tithing as not be done as contrary to what is in the scriptures. You are yarning garbage.Tithing is commanded of God and should be done by a christisn though not by force but its important to enjoy certain blessings associated with tithing as stated by God himself in Mal 3:14-15.

But you have not quoted one in the new testaments nor any new testament practice that s tithing.
Answer this question: Did Jesus receive tithes?
Did peter and any of the disciples receive tithes
The Paul you quoted hammered on the only acceptable type of giving but you won't talk about it.. did he receive tithes?
If these people that gave the guideline for Christianity didn't then why do you modern Pentecostal Christians?
Just answer the questions above:
Then meditate on the following.

2. The most well known age on tithing comes from the Old Testament book of Malachi 3:7-10. This Scripture has given rise to the practice of “Storehouse Tithing.” Simply stated, the congregation is exhorted from the pulpit to channel all of their Christian giving through the local church (storehouse). If they wish to give to a Christian organization, radio or television broadcast, etc., it must go through their denominational machinery in order for the local church to get “credit.” Also the pastor and elders often must make the determination if the cause ed by the giver is “worthy.”

3. This use of the Malachi age is a good example of Scripture being taken out of its historical and dispensational context. “This whole nation” in verse 9 is the backslidden nation of Israel, NOT the present day church (Malachi 1:1; 3:6). They were under the law of Moses as a system of conditional blessing. Believers today are not under the law but under grace (Romans 6:14). As such we have already been blessed by God with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ (Ephesians 1:3) and are under a system of unconditional blessing with grace on the throne (Romans 5:21).

4. This should put an end to the common charge that believers who don’t tithe are “robbing God” and will be “cursed with a curse.” The storehouse mentioned in verse 10 is not a local church but a storage bin or silo in the Jewish temple where the grain from the Hebrew’s tithes was stored (2 Chronicles 31:4-12).

5. Under the law only agricultural products were tithed. They included grain, fruit, and livestock. Only products produced within the boundaries of the land of Israel were to be tithed. Jews living in Gentile lands were exempt (Leviticus 27:30-34).

6.Others exempt from the tithing law included the hired hands, fishermen, miners, lumber workers, construction workers, soldiers, weavers, potters, manufacturers, merchants, government workers, and priests. In short, all who were not farmers were exempt.

7.A farmer with only 9 cattle did not tithe because the law specified the “tenth which eth under the rod.” Likewise a farmer with 19 sheep paid only 1 sheep to the Lord’s tithe.

8. The Jewish farmers in the land could redeem (buy back) the tithes of their crops with a penalty of one fifth. In other words, if a farmer wishes to keep his tithe of grain worth $1,000, he could pay the cash equivalent of $1,200 (Leviticus 27:31).

9.Livestock could not be brought back nor could the farmer exchange a good animal for a bad one or vice versa. Any attempt to substitute any other animal other than the tenth which ed under the rod would be penalized by the farmer forfeiting both the tenth and its substitute (Leviticus 27:33).

10.God ordained the Levites to be the ones to whom the tithe was paid (Numbers 18:21). They were one of the 12 tribes of Israel to whom no inheritance was given in the land. The Lord Himself and the tithes of the children of Israel was their inheritance. It was used for the service of the tabernacle (later the temple) (Numbers 18:20-28).

11. It was unlawful for anyone outside of the tribe of Levi to receive the tithe, such as prophets, preachers, kings or evangelists.

12. The Levites paid one tenth of their tithes to the high priest. Not all Levites were priests but only the sons of Aaron. The priests did not tithe.

13. The Lord Jesus Christ did not ask for or receive a tithe for of His ministry. Being of the tribe of Judah (not Levi) He could not without breaking the law (Hebrews 7:14; Revelation 5:5).
Neither Peter (not of the tribe of Levi) nor Paul (of the tribe of Benjamin) could receive tithes for the of their ministries.

14. Even the Jews do not practice tithing today because there are no Levites, priests, or temple worship in Jerusalem. Jewish rabbis know biblical law well enough to know that tithing under the present circumstances is unlawful. According to them, when the temple is rebuilt in Jerusalem with a consecrated altar with priests and Levites officiating, all Jews living within the biblical tithing zones will tithe.

15. Some Christian ministries today continue to tithing, using the argument that it predates Moses and the law. But this reasoning is not valid, for the Sabbath also predates the giving of the law (Exodus 16:23-29) and yet it is not binding on God’s people today (Romans 14:5,6; Galatians 4:9,10; Colossians 2:16,17).

17. According to Deuteronomy 14:22,23,28; 26:12; and Amos 4:4, the tithe was only given every three years. Abraham gave tithes to Melchisedec, king of Salem, but this was the spoils of war, not the legalistic tithe of the land which Moses commanded. Also, God did not command the tithe, Abraham chose to give it of his own free will (Genesis 14:17-23; Hebrews 7:1-10).

18. The only other scriptural reference to tithing before Moses is Jacob. Again there is no command to tithe. In fact Jacob puts up numerous conditions to be met before he will pay the tithe to the Lord (Genesis 28:20-22).

19. The biblical references which address the tithing issues are: Genesis 14:20; 28:22; Leviticus 27:30-32; Numbers 18:20-28; Deuteronomy 12:6,11,17; 14:22,23,28; 26:12; 2 Chronicles 31:5,6,12; Amos 4:4; Malachi 3:8-10; Matthew 23:23; Luke 11:42; 18:12; Hebrews 7:5-9. 1

20. Paul the apostle to the Gentiles for this present dispensation of Grace does not mention tithing but says a great deal about Christian giving. Romans 15:25,26; 1 Corinthians 9:7-14; 16:1-3; 2 Corinthians chapters 8 & 9; Galatians 6:6-10; Philippians 4:10-19; 1 Timothy 5:9-18.
Notes:

According to Deuteronomy 14:22,23,28; 26:12; and Amos 4:4, the tithe was only given every three years

Statsocial:

From Church leaders who Christ handed over to.

Then it must be quite later on in history because even the Catholics, the only church for a very long time didn't
I am quite certain also that Martin Luther who started the Protestant movements also didn't.
So I ask, when did it start?

bezimo:


If you dont like the book of Malachi because it onishes Christians to tithe..why not delete the chapter from your bible so that you now say were was it written sef to justify your non paying of tithe.

You are talking upside down because you have no answer to scriptures i posted ing tithing in Heb 7:8 Paul speaking and Matt 23:23..Jesus speaking ing tithing.

So you have now run out of counter productive argument to imply i am looking for people to collect tithe from.lol Abeg get lost.. you have no case. I am neither a pastor nor have a platform for feeding people spiritually as ordained by God. So I am am not looking for anyones tithe. I tithing based on strong personal conviction while enjoying the proven benefits of tithing.

Malachi wasn't talking to Christians. Malachi onished the Levites to bring the tithes to the storehouse. The storehouse is a silo in the temple where the grain and food were suppose to be stored.
Keep ignoring the facts.
It's almost impossible trying to get you to speak the truth.
You are not a Levite, even today the Israelites that were directly instructed in tithe payment can't establish that there exists a pure Levite anymore and thus can't even pay tithe. Na one man from Ijebu ode come fit collect tithe?
Did Jesus a non-levite receive tithes?
Did peter a non Levite receive tithes?
Did Paul receive tithes?
If not, where did you get your doctrine from?
