I sat next to a lady that was visiting IG, reposting things on WhatsApp status and streaming another church's service in church.
My biggest grouse was that she did this throughout the 1hr 45 mins service.
When the sermon switched to why we're meant to correct people when we see them acting wrongly, I knew I had to do something.
So I tapped her and gave her the "why are you using your phone in church" look.
This lady responded so angrily it shocked me. Anyways, we were going to cause a scene so I let her alone.
At least I'd ed my message.
If you use your phone in church, please stop it. You end up distracting people around you plus it's disrespectful. Please stop it.
You should have minded your business. In the process of paying attention to what she was doing, you yourself are not doing what you came to church to do.

Islandlady: Nairalanders I need y'all mature advice on this issue, No insults tho
I have been friends with my male friend for over 11years now, so he is more like a brother to me! He got married 3yrs ago, But we live in the same district, I do visit them once in a while! And I usually bump into his wife at market places, malls or on the street due to the fact that we live in the same district.
My friend is hardly around for the past few Weeks due to the fact that he do travel for work. . .But recently I have been seeing his wife with a Man just about the age of my friend, I have seen them together at the mall for 3 times now for a period interval of 3 weeks, I usually dodge and escape myself so they won't see me! The last time I saw them together I took a sneak pictures of them, I don't know this man, I have never seen him when I visit them, he is not a family member! I have been curious so I feel I should call the attention of my friend to this and send him the pictures too!
Should I tell him about it or what? I am confused!
Cost and pain of doing DNA is high. Help him before it is too late for him.
Literacy is merely the capacity to read and write…
So don’t know if she’s illiterate or literate, but she’s definitely EDUCATED…
The utility of a real EDUCATION (not certification, favored in many of Nigeria’s “repeat after me” cram-and-regurgitate institutions) is the capacity of INDEPENDENT thought and action.

This is the shocking moment a lady ignored congratulatory hand shake from her teachers as she walked across the podium to receive her certificate. This must be for reasons best known to her as she may have gone through hell on earth in the hands of the teachers.
Some of the teachers were visibly shocked at her behaviour but went on to award her certificate.

I won't try to sugarcoat it. I'm 25 years old, she's 19. Still in university because of the endless ASUU strike.
I've been having unprotected sex with this particular girl for a long while now. We've been dating for close to two years. I practise the "withdrawal" and "safe" days method. I met her a Virgin too.
Just realised she's pregnant. She started showing a lot of symptoms. Darkened areolas, nausea, breast heaviness, headache, back pain e.t.c.
I asked her to get do a pregnancy strip test and it came positive. Two red lines.
Though it's not what I ever planned for myself, I won't really mind having a child at my age. People will so much insult me, including my family but I'm sure my family will take care of the child.
The issue is the girl. Her family (Deeper Life) are wahala, big wahala. Educated people that behaves as if they never went to school. Now, we detected very early, her first period is supposed to start tomorrow (which I'm sure she'll miss). She's still very young and about to start schooling. I'm sure her dad will disown her (he once sent her away from his home over a slight misunderstanding, refused to let her back in until it was shown she was innocent).
I told her we have two choices, keep the baby or remove it. I am confused too, but I didn't show it. Pls what do you think?
We're really considering ending the pregnancy. Since it's very early, I'm considered getting m...p......r..l. I need medical advice pls. Above all, I don't want to endanger the girl's life.
I've read about abortion pills. I don't know how to get them or their price. Or should we keep the baby? Her dad will surely disown her, might later accept her, but it will definitely end her Education. What do you think? Should we get the drugs pls. Or consider another option? Should we keep the baby?
P.S: I know nairaland. I've been here for years, insult are welcomed. I never imaginned I'll ever open a thread like this.
P.S: If you're using withdrawal method and it works, it WILL STILL EVENTUALLY FAIL YOU. I used it for a really long time, now I'm here.
You're a fool for your statement. Educated people behaving like they never went to school? So going to school means you run mad? You just impregnated a girl that her parents are praying and struggling hard for daily. You just dashed their hopes and dreams. Your parents must have done a very bad job on you or they did their best but you chose to be this stupid.
Anobody:
I'm a single mother of two teenage sons, lost my husband 10 years ago and have been struggling to cater for them singlehandedly. My first son is 19 and the last 17 years but I'm getting fed up with the disrespect and regret not taking them to the village so I could remarry.
They both left secondary school and working to save up for school and I don't ask them for a dime. My last son suddenly started behaving like a tout, pierced both ears and turning his hair to dread, takes my stuff without my permission and even to extent of holding my hands when I get furious to beat him.
My first son is dating a girl and spends all his money on her to the extend of asking me for transport fare sometimes. Sometimes they come home by 10 or 11pm and are ready to fight me if I get furious to discipline them.
What broke the camel's back was that my last son went to a friend's bday party overnight without telling me, my first son said he called to tell him he won't return and NONE OF THEM TOLD ME under my roof.
I've tried talking calmly, denying certain privilege and discipline but it keeps getting worse, my last option is to take them back to their father's village before I die of hbp.
I'm depressed nairalanders�, please I seek matured advice, thanks.
Bigredmachine:
What a foolish and weak man... See as you allow woman dey oppress you...
The moment u kept on saying am sorry, the more power u gave her to continue insulting you...
He's most definitely not man enough, lacks confidence and has low self esteem...
Brainless he goat... I know he will still do it again ...
Calm down jare. All of us get our own dirt for body. Na pesin wey dem catch be thief. Many of these girl shouting here are busy sleeping with married men or sleeping around for money.
So you mean a boyfriend can ask his girlfriend or vice versa to open a t together with them so that they can be saving for their future?
You mean a girlfriend can move into her boyfriend's house and start doing wifely duties for him and begin to bear him children because relationship na relationship, married or not?
Lol
End of discussion. You have deviated. Even I'm marriage, I can never advice you to have a t with your husband. Living with a man you're not married with is dirty.
We were talking about making decisions for one another..... You left the discussion má.
Firstly you are speaking to a married woman in her late 20s. Stop generalising all in the name of trying to make sense that isn't even there in the first place. A man who hasn't paid a bride price on a woman has no rights to make decisions for her, only reasonable men would understand this. If they were married, it's different. Relationship doesn't guarantee marriage so why try to control someone's life just because you are her boyfriend?
Pẹ̀lẹ́ ooo, married woman in her late 20s. So you were given birth to in the 90's.
Relationship na relationship. Be it married or not. If you cannot make it work in dating relationship, marriage will never work. Flexibility in decision making is key in the success of any relationship.
So when you say he has no right making decisions for her because they aren't married.... It's totally unacceptable. She can make decisions for him too when situations call for it.
Everybody is ambitious, there is no man or woman in this life that is not ambitious in life.
She chose the second job because it pays higher than the first one and she gets a higher position. The guy doesn't want her going far away from him so that he can keep an eye on her which speaks Insecurity. He is her boyfriend and not her husband, he doesn't have any right to make decisions for her. If they were married then she would need to stay close to her husband but their relationship was barely three months when he told her to not take the second job because it is far from him.
The reason why he mentioned that she was ambitious was because she said the second job was like a promotion for her in her career plus the higher salary. That's why he said that
He doesn't have any right to make decisions for her? This is that stupid mentality that keep you girls single into your 30s. Las unar go start to consider to be babymamas.
He has every right to express his worries anyway he wants.
julie90:
I have been working for this company for two years. In December 2021, there was a change in management, a new manager was assigned to my Department. Before the change in management, I applied for some jobs in November 2021 but I didn't get any response.
Things between my new manager and I developed really quickly (he is not married and he is 10 years older than me). Although we have been working together, when he became the new manager we started dating. it was mutual, it wasn't like he forced me. We liked each other and we started dating in March 2022. We kept things professional in the office. Nobody in the office knows about this even till now.
Those companies I applied to in November 2021 reached out to me for an interview. I got two offers at the same time. Both offers come with great pay (similar to what my boyfriend currently earns) and a significant boost to my career. I spoke to my boyfriend about it and being my boss he told me to reject both offers, he told me he would be able to cater for my needs that the only commitment he has now is paying for his house and once he is done paying for it, he would have more money to take care of me and I didn't need a job where they would pay me what he's currently earning and be in a role similar to his.
I told him it's not the money but it would be about moving up the ladder in my career. These are offers people do not have, now I have two, he is asking me to reject them. He told me even if I have to move the only offer I should take is the one close to the company where we work which has a lower pay compared to the second offer. I told him I would go with the second offer which has more opportunities for me. Both offers are in the same state although my preferred offer is a bit far from where I live but it is still a reasonable location to commute everyday. At one point he told me, I was too ambitious and I took it as a compliment.
I noticed he changed since then, he informed the company management that I was leaving and we began the handover process, I noticed he changed after we had the discussion about me accepting the second offer but I thought it was about him missing me. May 31 was my last day and I noticed few days to my last day he was acting strange so I asked him what the matter was. He said he doesn't feel anything for me and we should stop seeing each other.
This is a man that was really excited when we were dating, all of a sudden doesn't feel anything for me because I got a high paying job? Is it wrong for a woman to be ambitious? When has it become a crime for a woman to aim high in her career? My role will still be to him. I have never been rude to him and I am not going to be rude to him because we now earn the same salary. I really like him and I feel disappointed that he could act this way.
Is it now a crime for a woman to be ambitious?
You just concluded that he changed because you got a high paying job. That's not fair. Did he tell you he is jealous of you. Dude could have some level of insecurities. He's in management and he knows what happens in organisations between bosses and female staff. Bros has rest of mind that you're working in the same company as he is. He's scared you'd be under someone else and can't imagine anything that could happen. You should be able to read between when he agreed you move but to a closer company to his own. Can you still say this is jealousy?
So instead of concluding that he's jealous of you, why not understanding his fears and talk about it with him?
Omo Ibo, wen odas dey work and build bridges , u dey for twitter and nl dey type trash and hate on other Nigerians but wen soup don done, u won reap where u no sow. If u like wail from now till tommorro, APC don get clear leader . shiorr.
If u like after dis defeat go wait until 2027 before u start writing nonsense. Nobody go ever take una serious. shiorr
Kindly respond reasonably and in an orderly manner sir. Nobody is fighting anybody here.
I asked this question because this delegates are just like king makers. They are the ones that select those we can vote for. And when they have been publicly bribed with thousands of dollars, can we still trust them?
If they want delegates, can it be centralised, each party will bring their candidates for screening. And these delegates will be a mix of old and young well educated individuals that cannot be bribed.
What do you guys think? Cos imagine the delegates presenting those people we know so well. You know what I mean?
