She’s trying to start a new life with ₦25k/month

It’s not going so well. [View in browser](=.BMHCaIyDZi3K4YIVpVV-rATVeOdWwAMDA3111pwRQmM) [Zikoko Daily] 1 May, 2023 Hey . I’m not one to send new month wishes, but the first day of May comes with a public holiday, and I’ll always be grateful for that. So, happy new month! For today’s #MyDumbelinaWahala, it seems this dog now understands English. She was whining at 3 a.m. as usual, and I screamed, “Shut up”, and she actually did. I guess that’s something to be grateful for. But then my man told me it’s odd she constantly whines and barks at 3 a.m., and now I’m worried I’m living with a witch-dog.

NAIRA LIFE The Inside Gist-ish: The #Nairalife of a Nanny Planning Her Life Post-separation With ₦25k/month =.dGn9q1a_tVZAJr4u-j-hdAG_cujYjJQm5AVzSDqzyds Inside this week’s #NairaLife is a 38-year-old who was forced to leave her husband of 19 years when he kicked her out. Now she’s hoping her job will get her two of her most important needs — accommodation and a business. Her salary? ₦25k. Here’s an excerpt from the story: “The work is too much. My boss has travelled out of the country. Now it’s just me, my daughter, my boss’s husband and their two children. Every morning, I bathe the kids and take them to school. Then I come back to clean the house and wash the dirty clothes. I also pick up the children from school and cook lunch and dinner for the house. I’m the only one doing all of this, and it’s not easy. And with everything I do, the husband will still talk to me somehow, like I don’t know what I’m doing. One day, I corrected one of the children, and the husband called their mother to warn me. There was another time I forgot to tell him that the fuel inside the gen had finished, and he said things to me like I did it intentionally.” [Continue reading here](=._A3VmNvjGtkY8iki0ws_dAgrGTwmNqDmaBbEY4w06gI) =.nL6dOXx3NBqLI3qsbLiqFl2wTMWPki_1H4P99IQTHiA Hot babes, are you still sleeping on our HERtitude tickets flash sale? 👉🏾 [You can still get tickets at ₦3,500](=.u3w70Ztr8lj8y2TE_pHp8WqkjDo4gTyCjbaDMJhVupg) *We'll be tweeting answers to this on our Twitter account at noon, so feel free to tweet us your answers with the hashtag [#ZikokoDailyQuiz](#) --> One Story to Read Today 11 ways you can make new friends as a 30+ Nigerian man I’m not a 30+ man, but even I know that making friends as an adult is mad difficult.
