She may be depressed.
Depressed by what?
In this hard economy, it's not like she's providing anything for herself or the kid?
I'm just fed up

Nice write up boss, how easy is it to find or get jobs over there. For instance, I am a power industry engineer, I work in a distribution control room and I'm certified. Could I apply for jobs over there?
aboyaji:
I'll go first...
1. Cooking gas: Cooking gas is very cheap in ivory Coast. It costs an average of #330/kg of gas. So refilling a 12.5 kg cylinder should cost you #4125 at most.
2. Kerosene: kerosene costs relatively about #650/ litre in the fuel station, where the black market sells for #800/ litre.
Note : This country's oil production is very poor o. They're not even anywhere close to Naija's production.
3. Organisation: Ivory coast is very well organized that you can barely run into unorganized environment. Many areas are safely guarded by their local police officers stationed almost everywhere. You can as well make friends with the officers easily without any form of threat from them. They're very welcoming.
4. Very low violent place: People can move around as late as 10pm till dawn without the fear of harassment or violence. In fact, children play in the tarred road as late as 10pm. They have already come to about how safe they are in the country. People can stay up late wherever they went to without rushing back home due to nightfall. Night movements was my best !
5. Good Road network: I spent close to 7 months in ivory Coast and could barely see a road untarred. Almost every road I used was smoothly done and stretched to various cities and States. The only place my leg touched Sandy soil was in my compound because the landlord was still constructing more buildings in the site. So our compound was sandy at the moment.
Tarred road stretched into all compounds in ivory Coast. It's not the responsibility of the government to do your compound, it's yours. I was marvelled by such development though I spent most of my time in the rural area.
6. Security: Police is your friend is the Moto in ivory Coast. Really nice people. I guess I've said it somewhere before now.
6a. Theft is ALMOST uncertainty. The prepaid meter of every individual house is stationed outside the main building without burglary or iron shield. Anybody can touch it. It wasn't even stationed very high from the ground level. It went only as far as 3-4 feets high. A child of 10 can touch it too.
Our apartment is in a 2 storey building comprising of almost 33 units of one bedroom apartments. The building was built like a shopping complex. All of the prepaid meters used in this apartments are stationed outside where everyone can see and feel it. But no one steals it, likewise every other houses there.
6b. Once there was a particular theft in my ivorian friend's shop that I know of. There were 5 boys who was involved in burgling his computer and phone shop one night. But before 5am, the boys were all caught with the complete stolen items retrieved. Funny enough, my friend didn't know. He was woken up by the police to come to his shop and see the guys. And he didn't have to SETTLE THE POLICE FOR DOING THEIR JOBS .
7. There is constant electricity in that country. CONSTANT.
I only observed a few nightouts and those periods were understandable. They all know when the lights would go off in the week or month and have come to with it. Light doesn't go off intermittently as obtained in Nigeria. And throughout my stay there, I didn't pay for light bill or water. My caretaker didn't mention it to me too. I was surprised. Steady light 
8. Economy: Their economy is very good. It's almost equaling to the Naira at the time I left. So, if you hear 500 CFA there, it's almost equivalent to 500 Naira. So don't do too much calculation.
8a. Minimum wage is very much respected and applied. A POS attendant over their is living a good standard life. A bar attendant earns about 20,000 CFA weekly... WEEKLY o. I mean a local bar attendant. How much more a corporate hotel or bar attendant or waiter.
8b. The money you earn can fetch you a standard living. Their money is easily made and spent too.
9. FOOD : Our area of specialty.
Food is over cheap compared to what's obtained in Naija. You can see someone who earns little but could afford chicken or any frozen food. Food is not part of their problems for now. Banana can go as low as 50 CFA or 50 Naira and it is not the small quantity we're talking about.
A bunch of Bananas that you can get from a roadside vendor in Naija for 800 could be gotten for 150 CFA. So you see it. Once I bought 2 Bunches of banana for 50 each, I couldn't finish them for 3 days.
9a. So sorry, vegetables can be scarcely found there my dear. I made most of my soup without vegetables. That part I didn't enjoy 
That's for now. Anybody can add.

Nice one pocolee... sorry pocohantas 
Your experience is quite an interesting one and I can relate with it.
I've known upwork since 2016/2017, only God know the evil spirit that stopped me from ing then.
Eventually, I opened an in the first week of April 2020 as a software engineer. Getting approved almost immediately, I changed it to a writer's profile
I did not send any proposal at all till June 1st this year when I decided to take it more seriously. Got several s and eventually landed a long term writing job for a US based client. And it has been a wonderful experience so far
The completion in upwork is crazy. The Pakistanis, the Filipinos, and Indians have made it really difficult getting a work there. And the fact that we're Nigerians, we've already had like two own goals already.
Though some Nigerians are making it big. I recently came across a Nigerian based writer that has earned more than $100k+. Success in upwork is many a time a game of effort, chance, and luck.
Can you outsource some of your writing jobs to me?
A trial will convince you.

Good afternoon experts in the house, pls I have a nissan versa 2008 model, I noticed about 2 weeks ago that d oil had leaked out overnight so I called a mechanic, we discovered it was from the fuel filter cos it was lose, we filled the oil and tightened it but once we started the engine, all d oil gushed out, we've changed d filter about 5 times now and it's doing d same thing. D mechanic has tried to check everything thing he knows but no luck at all. Once we start d engine, oil will gush out and waste away from d filter point. I'm getting frustrated cos d car is my source of income and I'm extremely broke right now. Pls sirs, could u tell me what could be wrong

you didnt have to jump into such conclusions. i stated in my post that d car was recently acquired as tokunbo less than 3 months ago, i actually use it for uber in my free time. i still used it and made about 5k that i needed yesterday even though i was in d office. i just want to get d car off my expense list so i can face other obligations squarely for now. its not like the car is disfunctional or a liability to anyone
Felicity001:
Divers like me will never want to partner with a prospective partners like this because it looks like a trap and problem ahead
Don't go into a business because you're having financial challenges, simply sell the car outrightly instead of relying on 50k that may not be enough to solve your financial needs or put the car in good shape for the driver to work wifh productively and effectively. You may end up using that upfront payment to solve problem when it enters your hands and from there problem start btw u and the driver.
This is not a tokunbo car by the way so what makes you think 50k will make it uber standard? No it wont. Even direct tok need a minimum of 150k to bring it up to standard let alone a 9ja used.
Best option is outright sale. Save yourself some stress.

Comprehensively insure your car
Install a good tracking system. And give your car to anybody.
The way you guys hold on to this guarantor stuff, one would think it's a better option.
If a driver gets involved in an accident, you'll still spend money to arrest the guarantor. In the end, the police will witness an agreement that the guarantor would pay small-small. Let's not forget that you will still give the police money too.
Just insure the car comprehensively. It's better than requesting 1000 guarantors..
My opinion
this point is duly noted sir and would be considered when things are better, but for now, im broke and have quite a lot more pressing financial situations to attend to.
thanks

This 3 month Nigeria used manual transmission nissan versa 2008 model is up for adoption either as rental or HP for interested drivers. An upfront token of 50k and 3 guarantors, valid driver licence and functional driver's with uber/bolt are required.
It is my personal car, the ac which used to be chilling when I bought it (at end of june) is undergoing maintenance (it was damaged by a drunk driver who drove d car into flood with d ac on). I need some money to put it back in order. The repairs would be deducted from the upfront so no extra burden on the new driver. I'm giving this babe up because I currently have other pressing obligations which need my financial and moral attention.
Any interested driver should me for more details
My s are in my signature

I find it very reliable. With much use, you get acquainted with its use and direction.
Start out by using it everytime, within your neighborhood, and places you are conversant with the audio on. You will get used with its turn left in the next 500 meters, or keep right on the ramp.
With Google map, you shouldn't get lost
Ok bros. Thanks
