      Quality Hollandaise Ankara wrapper(Easterner) or quality lace material (Yoruba)

      Jewelries especially wristwatch

      Shoes and handbags(like one each)

      That is what me and my sisters do and the mamas appreciate.

    3. *Cash
      *Wrappers
      *Provisions from Milo,milk,salt,Cabin and anything you can afford
      *shoes,handbag and accessories

      It’s about what you can afford plus your income or combined income..

    1. Which Bank or coy?

      If it’s a walk-in bank;report to them at their physical branch..

      If it’s a Fin-tech coy;call their customer care and they would either send an agent to your location;or ask you to waybill to their location and they activate it again;then return..
      Sorry for the inconvenience;it’s why it’s good to have another POS option just incase issues like this arise..

    3. Loll, thanks guys but you guys don't seem to understand.
      I'm not working for my self or in a silo.
      I'm working in a TEAM.
      If you have negative, toxic colleagues there is no way it will not negatively affect individual and collective productivity and also when they gossip and backbite to senior management.
      There is a reason why some people spend 5 years on a job, no promotion, no salary increase. Even though they are working blood, sweat and tears.
      I don't want to be part if those people.
      I need a little bit something more than 'mind your job/mind your business'.
      Thanks.

      Delete
    4. Report them whenever they mess up. Don’t cover them. If they’re not contributing to the team, gather evidence and report them. Also, start keeping evidence of your output and productivity. No cover anybody. Good girl no pay for office oo. Lalso learn to go go to your supervisors office to ask questions about projects you’re working on. Even if you know it.

    ReplyDelete

    1. Bestmums is perfect. Check them out on Instagram, send a dm and they will direct you to the vendor closest to you. It's 30,000 naira and electric, easy to use and adjustable, it also pumps well and allows you relax while pumping. It uses double suckers, so you can pump both breast at the same time. All the best!

  21. Good afternoon
    Pls, for bvs living in Ilorin..is it true we can get a standard two bedroom flat of 120k- 150k? We are planning to relocate to ilorin from Abuja as house rent is too cost here.

    Though I schooled in Offa but I DNT know much about ilorin..Is it possible I get a good paying job there? Or it's better I do business there cos I don't want to be idle there..Are there good private schools there cos of my kids?

    Abeg, make una no vex with my too much questions.

    Thanks

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Why are you relocating when you are not sure if the business terrain will suit you or was your partner posted there?
      Don't know what your profession is so can't advise about jobs.
      Dont know what type of business you are into or would like to go into, so cant advice about business.
      Accommodation would most likely be cheaper but dont know how a 'standard' 2 bedroom flat would go for 150k except it's not in the city centre, maybe outskirts.
      You can also find a 2bedroom in Nassarawa which is less than 30 minutes from Abuja for that amount.
      Best of luck!

      Delete
    2. You can’t get many good paying jobs in a city where rent is cheap

      Delete
    3. 16:27 Truth

      Delete
    4. Move to Nassarawa, areas close to Abuja if you need to maintain your job in Abuja.
      If you must move to Ilorin, do your findings well. Things are cheap there including rent, so even if you don't get a well paying job, you will be fine. For business, there are areas in the city centre where business moves well. If you need cheap flat like the one you mentioned above , you will get neat ones in outskirts/new sites like Airport road, Babaode, Asa dam , Fate-Tanke, etc. In town, they are available but not neat.
      There are good schools too, from elite schools to middle class to lower class, they are many. When you move there, ask around, they will tell you.
      I know Ilorin very well and can link you up with someone for accommodation and others if you need help.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. See a dermatologist. He needs a long prescription

      Delete
    2. Check if something is causing it, maybe what he eats... Could be puberty... Can he avoid junk and oily food, wash his face regularly and he shouldn't pick the pimple. Let him use dudu osun soap and watch the progress ... Doxycycline works but please see a doctor for dosage

      Delete
    3. Buy ampiclox 500mg(not beecham), two satchets. Let him take one morning, one afternoon, one night. As he is taking it, let him use dermaliss cleanser, the bleaching one, to clean his face with cotton wool morning and night, the one that has bleaching written on it will clear the dark spots left by the pimples. After cleaning, he should apply Tribact cream or funbact A cream.
      For soap, buy a mild soap like lux, joy. Any harsh soap will worsen it.
      When everything has cleared. He should keep using mild soap and dermaliss cleanser and then get a face cream for him to be using for his face alone, they are many in stores. Get him a face towel to use for cleaning his face alone after bathing. Then he should be drinking plenty water and eat fruits everyday. Monitor him and make sure he does all of the above.
