😂😂😂. Which one are talking about hoe or deceitfulness of women? Is being happily married equivalent to not being deceitful. I am not used to chatting with children but let me let you amuse yourself.

Baba, immediately I have the plan to relocate abroad, the first thing I will so is to set up another family. Once the one we travel abroad start misbehaving, I will just quietly carry my bag, leave her with the children and continue my life with my second wife back home.

I will never accept any woman to lord over me as abroad women are use to be doing.

When you see someone reason like this just know the person is immature

Why should we remove any stigma. We are not animals.


So bullying people into a union they found detrimental to their mental and physical wellbeing is not animal like behaviour?

So true.
If there is no stigma against divorcing and single motherhood, oboy divorce go plenty pass condom.
Many women are enduring marriages due to many factors.
Finance - I know atleast 5 women who have declared to me that if not for stigma, they would have packed out of the marriage they are due to poverty. From my observation, I think poverty will take 70% of the reason why most women are tired and exhausted in marriages.
Infidelity - many women will rather endure with a providing man than staying alone while poverty and hardship strikes them down.
why did they marry poor men?

You cannot discipline your wife as one can do in Nigeria... Your wife can wake up and call police for you and police will ask you to leave your home.

You cannot scold your kids, if you do so and the authority get to know, they will take away your kids and hand them over to a foster parent.

And this is the place some people are selling their assets to go lipsrsealed

My prayer to all Nigeria men suffering under their wives in various oyinbo country.
It’s only your kids you discipline. There is nothing like disciplining of wife... wife is a partner... your wife is yiu

Please, y'all should stop demonizing taxes.

Even after taxes, a financially prudent person can still save enough to make him or her wealthy by Naira and Nigerian standards.


The reasons why you Africans despise and fear taxes (including African Americans) says a lot about why this continent is behind.
tax is theft

Tufiakwa! Even If I move over to the UK, I trust God for my marriage to remain intact because happiness in marriage depends on the mutual love, respect, & understanding you have with your wife. And above all, the God factor both of you believe in and uphold.
You're playing!! Just move over first!! Most persons who thought like you know better now!

Except you are not African, you are suffering colonial mentality to be calling your fathers local champions.

Here in Africa, roles/family functions are distributed to every member of the family according to their gender, it is the culture that spells this roles to ensures cohesion and harmony in the home. Some African family institutions have been bastardised by foreign lifestyle which lacks well organized structure and is the reason most marriages are crashing nowadays.

Learn not to call the culture that brought you up as local simply because you are in UK where authorities survive by stealing African resources and pretending to themselves

You think these ones have sense? He doesn’t even know what you’re talking about.

Even in Nigeria, I never discipline my wife. Why the fvck would i want to do that.

I discipline my kids here and none hss ever or will ever call the police on me.

Child discipline come in different shapes and forms and i do not have to brutalize my kids in the name of discipline.

With all the discipline in Nigeria, lots of the young ones are growing up to become lawless criminals and the big question is " how effective is the Nigeria's form of child's discipline?

A cursory look at our society will tell you our form of discipline is not working.

I do not want a wife i can discipline, that must be one low self esteem local woman

He's a Muslim. Islam allows the men to beat their wives. It's in the Quran as a method to 'discipline' wives.




Men also show their worst when they are given power.



What % of men show their worst
Yet 80% of women divorce in abroad






The reason women run out of marriages in countries where they are treated as equal humans is because women are not by nature desirous of being submissive to another human being.




Then they stay alone
See how long they last
But lazy ppl they are they look for Awoof and yet want equality
Don't worry free money will soon end then we shall see





No normal human being wants to put their needs and desires on the back seat for another person in the name of submission to husband.




Yes they do otherwise they wouldn't have gotten married to men who will provide free house and food for them and their children






Nigerian culture and religion forces women to live like that.



All cultures except Oyinbo and they are learning now the hard way







If you see couples that have genuine, true love and companionship and friendship, you will see that their marriage would last even in western countries.

Na only slave and master marriage dey collapse for civilized countries.
nobody forced any woman to marry o
They can equally hustle and Pay bills to claim equality

These are not limited to the UK. It’s applicable to developed countries that actually care about the worth of the female gender. Canada, USA, Russia, it’s everywhere.



Letting women become prostitute single mothers is worth?

It’s only in Africa, the world’s most underdeveloped or least developed continent that don’t respect women.
