i was actually making the statement that people have the kind of attitude they have to polygamy, largely because of the ill information being churned out there in a nollywood controled by christians, whose mind have been shaped by the church and secular education firmly in the grip of feminism. The views and attitude of these people to polygamy isn't shaped by reason and fair debate.

craziebone:


no wonder you see it as selfish. For you, marriage is all about sex. Why don't you read Sanusi's reply to his critics when he took another wife and buy yourself a brain if you think Marriage is just sex and sex and sex. Though, i am not in support of his going for a comparatively younger lady. He should have married her for one of his sons. But then again, its his choice; and the lady if of age.

As for polyandry, i support that too. As long as there is no deciet anywhere. Infact, for me, if there is deciet in any relationship, then there was no relationship to begin with. If any man decieves you into polygamy, come and call me; i will defend you in court and you don't have to pay me.

craziebone:


the problem with you guys is, you think everyone who doesn't not see a problem with a thing actually want to go into it. My first choice is just one woman.

Actually, it would surprise you to know that some of us who speak this way, are those who on our own, have made that conscious choice to stay with only one woman wether in marriage or not [actually for me, marriage is good; but we (myself and my gf) may just decide to go on with our lives without ever getting married]. We have decided not to cheat on any woman we are with.

Can u imagine
13yrs diff and dey are shouting paedophile.how am i sure those pple shouting paedophiles are not the real ones being paedophilic?

And to say d'concept of paedophilia is bn blown out of proportion is evn an undastatemnt bro!!!

MsGlobalwonder:
ok.what is "fair" about polygamy.... especially to the woman?

ItsMeAboki:

I guess Catholic who are also against birth control: condoms, the pill, etc must be Muslims
Sometimes some of you seem to think and speak through their anuses - due to your terrible ignorance and bigotry.

MsGlobalwonder:
you are the one saying the Bible supports Polygamy! And i'm even giving you a perfect case-study u should thank me man. Hehe. Smh. I've read funny reasons people practice polygamy and they are ALL selfish! Well, maybe not too selfish with the consent of the woman tho. Whatever rocks anyone's boat.

craziebone:


well, i have come to this point before when people tell me i lean too much on my knowledge and understanding, even though my knowledge and understanding is actually VERY VERY LIMITED.

To point something out, faith is not handed down SO THAT YU CAN ACCEPT. IT IS HANDED DOWN SO YOU COULD BELIEVE. there is a difference between the two and the fact that i can point it out to you, means you i also have this same rhema you guys claim to have.

MonPro:


Stop telling him to mind his business. It is his oil wealth as a nigerian taxpayer that tambuwal will use to cater for that women. You hausas should start thing like humans for once. Tambuwal is a public office holder. The public that feeds him has the right to know how he spends their money.

MsGlobalwonder:
lool @ fall into temptation. Is he not married already? I'm sure he was married to more than one wife before now. Have you ever asked if the women he married fall into temptation? Oh, only men fall into temptation? Tufiakwa!

erusen:
ur post clearly lack common sense,one man with 4 wife's,27 children, which he will not educate.,and u are saying if he falls into temptation.

Built2last:


See one product of such escapades

umar4info:

How sure are you that Tambuwa used public fund to marry that woman. Something i noticed about you southerners is that notion of we northerners cannot buy even a biscuit without oil money. You think we have nothing to show up while sardauna and balewa are from north and the triggers of oil rigs.

umar4info:

I didn't say temptation... Be a good observer...

MonPro:


As long as tambuwal is a public office holder, any penny he spends is public money. Even if obama was a polygamist mormon, he can't get married to 2 wives and claim he used personal money and not public money.

effyzie01:


I totally agree with you.

I've come to view the phenomenon of calling Northern leaders paedophiles as a look down on the North, its leaders, people and religions by a band of educated 'illiterates' as you rightly tag them.

It is sad

Flashh:


Take a look at you. When a man is having affection to his daughter's agemate is a pedophile. Period!

idris4r83:
that is why I said u don't know the meaning of a pedophile. Moreover, it might interest you to know that she's 35 and she has Msc.

loshybab:

U cn say dt again!!!

From what ive observed,mst rich northerners (tycoon,politician etc) engage polygamy as a way f reducin fear amng his fmly members weneva he is away.
The vry few 1ns dt do nt practice polygamy wl hv his fmly members frequently payin visits/ evn stayin wt dem.

effyzie01:


Yes!

In addition, Northerners, especially Hausa, like women a lot. Soon as one feels his pocket is full, they get another wife until.

LastProphet:


do Catholics encourage multiple wives? do Catholics mix their religion with politics? you must be a dullard to think you have a point

craziebone:


we are already kings in Africa in some respects. Lets be very fair to the country. I agree with you when you said we should control our population; that's why i said we should peak at 200 and lets stay there.

As it is now, our land mass can take up to 250million and there would still be land for other purpose. The last minister of Agriculture said there are millions of hectres of agricultural land that is not being farmed presently. This doesn't include the forest reserves and national parks. As it is now, what we need to do is to try to achieve greater yield per hectre and all the talks about feeding will be taken care of. If Indonesia can still feed its own people despite having a smaller land mass and higher population, and despite being plagued by natural disasters like the monsoon rains, Nigeria should not have a problem feeding its population even if it is 250. But for me, 200 is ok and wre should not go beyond that.

Also, with good housing policy, we should be able to solve the problem of shelter. All the bungalows being built in Abuja, a place that has a good basement rock, should not be what should be springing up there. Since they have good basement rocks, they should have focused on building highrise buildings instead of wasting the land by building the little bungalows they are now building.

Indonesia land area is 1,811,569.0 square km
Nigeria land area is 910,768.0 square km

where did you get your data from?

another thing is, there is a lot of volcanoes in indonesia, volcanoes means a lot of fertile soil to support agriculture, thus abundance of foods to supply bigger population

Sharp guy. Respect.

She's 37 and holds an MSc degree

arabianights:

arabianights:



Seriously, did mugabe say this?

arabianights:



MAny of us hold msc,so whats the celebration on PLEASE TAKE NOTE THAT SHES ABOVE 37.

effyzie01:


Does it matter that she's above 37? Methinks what matters is that she's married.

Oh well, Mr MSc, who says we are celebrating her qualifications? He asked a question and I answered it to the best of my knowledge.

So, what's the big deal?
