A woman with an innocent, kind angelic beautiful face can make herself approachable.
Yet deep in her inside is a heartless woman with the sting of a venomous scorpion and the patience of a viper ready to strike an unwary man who has been held under the spell of her beauty and will not abandon ship even when the coast is clear.

Daughters of eve have brought down so many giants in history and modern times, so many could not get back on their feet after a divorce because she left with his hard earned wealth, his mental health and worse of all, his kids! Men must learn to treat marriage as transactional and nothing more, cos these modern women are for the bread and nothing more.

50 Cent told me that if you are someone that loves so deep, then this generation is not for you, but I didn’t listen. When she asked for a divorce and took everything, 50 Cent still didn’t leave me. He offered me a role in his movie 'POWER,' and that’s how I bounced back and started hustling again," Tyrese stated.

Come abroad come see many men and women that only bath once a week tongue tongue tongue

True talk. While we in Nigeria are obsessed with bathing 3 times a day, Oyinbo wey no dey baf everyday have a better economy than our own. I used to have a colleague in IT who was earning almost £100,000 pa and he wears a black shirt and black trousers all year through. He probably has multiple pairs but the point I am making is that we major on the minor in Nigeria. Mark Zuckerberg the owner of Facebook and Instagram who is worth 182.8 billion USD has 7 T shirts and 7 Jeans all of the same colour and when asked why, he said it is a waste of his brain cells and brain power to start thinking of what to wear on a daily basis.

Whilst our greedy politicians in Nigeria are looting us and are descendants blind by the second, we choose to focus on bathing multiple times a day while our politicians focus on looting us blind.

I guess that if the "so called" wife is kidnapped like the Chibok girls and kept in Sambisa Forest for months if not years, her main pre-occupation will be finding a space and time to baff everyday instead of scheming about how to escape from the kidnappers den. I think there should be an IQ check before people are allowed to post any rubbish on the internet as a lot of people have the reasoning faculties of a child.

What misplaced priorities.

So, in the "so called" wife's logic, it is alright for her husband to be an Armed Robber as long as he showers every day. Its similar to some men saying that they can not stay with a woman who does not wear white underwear all the time as if the white underwear means she is a good woman ??

https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2020/nov/27/one-in-four-britons-dont-shower-every-day-the-rest-arent-doing-it-right

According to one hygiene expert - Professor Sally Bloomfield - bathing every day is 'really not important' and does not need to be done ever.
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-11376739/Why-not-need-shower-morning-according-hygiene-expert.html

Robert H. Shmerling, MD, a former clinical chief of the division of rheumatology at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (BIDMC), and a current member of the corresponding faculty in medicine at Harvard Medical School says overcleaning your body could be making your skin drier than it would be with less frequent showering and he also says that daily showers do not improve your health, could cause skin problems or other health issues and also, the oils, perfumes, and other additives in shampoos, conditioners, and soaps may cause problems of their own, such as allergic reactions.
https://www.health.harvard.edu/blog/showering-daily-is-it-necessary-2019062617193

There's no need to shower every day and ome experts believe that everyday showering is based more on a 'social contract' than actual need.

What Happens When You Shower Too Much?
Normal skin has a protective layer of oil and a balance of “good” bacteria that help protect your skin from dryness and germs. If you clean it too often, especially with harsh soaps and lots of scrubbing, you can strip away this layer, leading to dry, irritated, itchy skin. This can cause cracks in the skin that allow germs and allergens to get through resulting in skin infections or allergic reactions.

I doubt she'd end the marriage if the husband is a billionaire.

A woman will start to notice your bad behaviour the moment your source of income diminishes.

As long as you have the resources to maintain a woman's extravagant lifestyle till eternity, she can never find fault in you. You can even impregnate her sister or mother, and she'll still be with you.

True talk. I know one bros for UK whose wife caught him in bed with her sister before they relocated to the UK from naija. The bros who was the bread winner told his wife that her sister raped him and his evidence was that the wifes sister was the one caught riding baba wlike an Okada. This did not stop the wife relocating to the UK with her husband.

True talk.

I live in London and in those days when I still thought dating websites could be productive, I met a Naija lady living in Ireland and we exchanged numbers and got talking. She had a child already but was never married and at that point she said she was contemplating going to collect sperm from a sperm bank to have a second child via an anonymous father so that her son can have a sibling to play with.

Turns out that we never met in person due to her anger and tantrum issues and rudeness over the phone especially when she sees that you are winning an argument based on superior logic and this made me break off contact with her.
Family / Most Likely Cause Of A Woman Having A Smelly Vagina. by Ilekokonit: 7:31pm On Aug 26
Most likely cause of a woman having a smelly vagina.

At times na too much sex by some women or overuse of Love Machine / vibrator and intimacy gadgets dey cause the smelling kitten 'cos when you keep digging, you will hit water and over filing the vagina with vibrators will make the vaginal walls thinner and thinner over time due to wearing it down with big vibrators / dildos.

At some point, the lady will then develop the conditions called vesico-vaginal or recto-vaginal fistula where anterior to the vagina the bladder contents (piss) or posteriorly the rectal contents (shit water) begins to leak into the vagina that is sandwiched between both of them through simple osmosis leading to some women's vagina to at times smell like a toilet but if you tell these feminists to stop using vibrators they will scream like the demonic banshees that they are that they don't need any man.

Some women use dildos, vibrators and intimacy gadgets for hours on end at a go happily thinking that they no longer need a man as the vibrator can service them for 4 hours a time not realising that its just like drilling a well, as you keep drilling, you MUST hit water sooner or later.

Its similar to a "combined" Rectovaginal and Vesicovaginal fistula but on a milder but more embarrassing scale.

Sex is not war and any greedy uninformed woman who wants a horse dick can go buy a large Love Machine and GO Bleep HERSELF to her hearts intent. They already do this anyway which is why a large number of women now roam around with smelly vaginas which they damaged with their greedy use of large vibrators and dildos leading them to have Vesico Vaginal Fistula. When they were busy drilling a well / bore hole between their legs with a vibrator / Love Machine they forgot that when they repeatedly drill and grind a vibrator (which is just a long metal pole surrounded by ball bearings and encased in thick rubber) against the walls of their vagina, the walls will gradually wear own and osmosis will make piss water from the bladder and shit water from the rectum seep into their vagina through its vibrator weakened walls - hence the epidemic of smelly vaginas in society at large.

They honestly know that no man will ever marry them when he inevitably discovers the extent of the smell emanating from their vagina, hence they decide to dedicate their whole lives to fucking dildos and becoming hard core feminist men haters.

Nuff said.

Nigeria’s GDP Grows By 3.19% In Q2, 2024 – NBS

Fair enough but we are not illiterates like Tinubu and his band of billionaire MC Oluomo thugs, killers and former armed robbers and the enabler of criminality in musician Wasiu Ayinde (Kwam1) and a few top Nollywood Actors and Actresses who will swallow every nonsense Tinubu and his acolytes spew out.

We will juxtapose the 3.19% "phantom" GDP growth with reports from the same NBS just 2 months ago that Food Inflation Increased in Nigeria by 61% In One Year making it more difficult for Nigerians to feed themselves.

https://www.nairaland.com/8127330/food-inflation-soars-61-one

So the semi-illiterate Crime Lord in Aso Rock can continue holding his equally criminally minded followers spell bound by spewing out dodgy statistics but not all Nigerians will buy it.

I for one do not believe that Tinubu is capable of doing any "Net" Good to Nigeria's Treasury. For one, Tinubu is an accomplished treasury Looter with at least 25 Years consummate experience in Looting Lagos state blind and into submission to him and his band of killer thugs in Lagos led by MC Oluomo who Tinubu has now elevated to the President of the Federal Road safety workers in view of handing him and his killer thugs and former armed robbers "special election duties" in the 2027 elections along the length and breadth of the 36 states and the FCT.

Again, I say, we never jam for Nigeria. Our eyes will become clearer by the day. A i ti rin kan kan. We never see anythng yet. This will teach us not to rescue defeat from the jaws of victory next time. Those of us who know of Tinubu's antecedents in Lagos shouted from the roof top but not every one listened even in light of evidence of Tinubu's criminality littering the internet for the past 20 years.

The minute "Dudus" Coke senior fell foul of the ruling party, he was thrown in a jail cell which "suspiciously" caught fire and the man was roasted alive in his cell.

Later Dudus Coke Jnr also fell foul of the Govt and although it took the Govt a great deal of effort to apprehend him because the locals in his area were ready to die in preventing his arrest due to his generosity to them, he was eventually apprehended and handed to the American authorities where he is currently serving jail time for drug offences.

This is hilarious and interesting. What prompted you go go request your records though?

Had 'Daddy GO' already been moving shadily before then?

Actually, then, I had implicit and explicit trust in the probity of the "Daddy GO" and I did not plan to leave the church at the point I decided to go check my tithe records and if they had shown me my tithe records as the GO had promised on the pulpit I wouldn't have left the church "at that time".

What happened was that I just started a double barrelled stressful job a few months after completing my ACCA exams and I decided to take one day off work to fast and pray and in the process something just told me to enter my car, drive down to the church and ask to check my tithe records as allowed by the Pastors declaration to the whole church.

On getting to the church and telling them that I have come to check my tithe records as promised by the GO, the church worker started taking me to the accounts office and then the person suddenly had a change of mind, turned back and refused to take me to the accounts office and in that moment maybe because I had just been praying and fasting for one day, I started seeing vivid images of some church workers moving boxes of documents out of the church office to hide in the boot of a car parked withing the church compound as if they were trying to hide evidence or something.

lol you stopped since 1999? What was the turning point for you?

The turning point was when I went to my Church in London, tendered my Tithe Account Number and asked to inspect my Tithe records in Jan 1999 and it quickly degenerated into the junior pastor on duty calling the Met Police and asking them to arrest me because I was disturbing them and the cops told him they could not arrest me because I had done nothing wrong.

To be fair, I phoned the cops first asking them to come and investigate fraud when the church refused to show me my Tithe records despite my showing them my Tithe account number - a procedure instituted by the GO of the church to prove that the church operated with financial probity but when push came to shove and a church member had the audacity to come and ask to be shown his tithe records as allowed by Daddy GO, the story changed and I was not shown my Tithe records.

My aim was to compare any Tithe records they showed me to the diligent records I kept for myself but they refused to show me the tithe records they professed to be keeping for every church member with an attendant supposedly unique Tithe account number issued to everyone.

When I phoned the police to come and investigate fraud in the church, they told me I should instead call the serious fraud office and it was after this that the junior pastor on duty called the cops who refused to arrest me and they told him I had done nothing wrong.

I then asked the police if I could stay in my car opposite the church entrance and wait for Daddy GO to arrive as I wanted to ask him a few questions but the police said no and I just drove to the nearest pub and ordered 2 pints of Guinness and broke my 5 year alcohol fast.

Since Jan 1999, I no dey go any church again as the veil dropped from my face and the scales fell from my eyes in Jan 1999.

What a precedence.

Multiply this by 36 States and you begin to see what mess Nigeria is in and that is before you factor in the dodgy deals at the federal level waiting to bite us in the behind.

Every failed business owner the world over must be licking their lips at the largesse they can make in the millions of dollars without doing anything more than signing a white elephant project with Nigeria. Projects they had no financial muscle to prosecute in the first place.

First it was the Irish Company P&ID fraudulently obtaining an $11 billion (€10 billion) arbitration award against Nigeria over a failed gas deal that was tainted in corruption and bribes and now a small unknown Mum and Pops Chinese company seizing our National assets because Nigerian politicians are busy looting us blind and are not interested in defending the collective well being of generations to come from financial servitude.

Now it's open sesame for all comers to keep ripping off the Nigerian state.

Another $500 million dollars loan in addition to the $500 million dollars bond that would be sold on Monday?! Nigeria is a tragicomedy.

Nigeria has been used to rescuing defeat from the jaws of victory for so long but allowing Tinubu to enter Aso rock takes the biscuit and Nigeria WILL never recover from Tinubus looting of the treasury or his ability to steal so much and perpetuate himself and his cronies in power as president for the foreseeable future. Lagos state's treasury and political power is still in Tinubus back pocket for the past 25 years and counting and it is from the money he stole from Lagos for these past 25 years that he was able to buy the whole Nigerian system and worm his sticky fingers onto the jugular of Aso rock and the Nigerian treasury.

We never jam for Nigeria because eyes hath not seen and neither can the human mind comprehend the damage that Tinubu will inflict on ALL of us in Nigeria.

At some point in Lagos even when Tinubu was no longer Governor, when he wants to retire to bed at night, he will tell those around him that Lagos is going to bed - meaning that Tinubu saw himself as owning Lagos.

Hello all, I’m confused and need all the advice I can get please.
I am a single mom of 1, haven’t been able to work much because it has been a struggle getting something that can fit into my child’s school schedule.
I currently have about £20k and I want to open an African store. The area where I am has a large black population. My confusion is that I am worried if this business can comfortably pay my house rent PLUS shop rent which will total about £2k every month. Does anyone have an idea please help me out of my mystery as I really want to start something so I can comfortably pay my bills.
Thank you.

Don't venture into renting a shop in the UK in addition to paying house rent. The £20k will not last as most commercial premises will ask for 3 months rent plus 3 months deposit PLUS 20% VAT and this is before you buy stock and pay your rent. If you were a man, i would have suggested buying a second hand Van maybe less than £3K, rent a secure spacious ware house or lock up garage and import non perishables from naija e.g cartons of Malta guiness, Guiness beer and bottled palm wine from Naija and use the van to deliver to naija restaurants around you.

Your best bet is to "properly" register with your local council a takeaway business from your home address (thus cutting out business rent), then register with deliveroo, just eat and uber eats, paste photos of your dishes on their sites, adjust your prices upwards to factor in the 30% charge these websites take, buy some Naija foodstuff and tentatively start cooking 10 plates to start with and gradually increase the quantity you cook and the good thing is that the food will never spoil as you have a freezer and most people who order cooked food online are not really fussy if you just defrosted the food you sent them in the microwave as long as the food is tasty.

If no be say I be man and I no longer like cooking or washing pots, I for do this same online food business as on the long run, no paid employment can beat it IF your food is good.

I went for a baby dedication last week in naija church one of their London branch and the pastor was preaching how it is wrong for a woman to bring anything to the table

That it's biblical that a man is suppose to pay all the bills and anything relating to the house and let the woman keep any money made
BTW this pastor has been in UK for years

I had to smh that you see how some religion are always causing problems . I am sure after the service some couple went home to fight based on that preaching

A lot of these UK Nigerian Pastors are lying charlatans and they are so lazy to go and work hard for their own money that they depend on the multiplier effect of tithes, offerings paid in pounds and also claim the extra gift aid from the tax man as 25% of any tithes their member pays them.

When I was still going to church in the UK, i remember contributing to a fund to buy a car for a so called pastor who later went to prison after being charged with two counts of sexual assault involving two male youths, one of whom was a boy under 16 years of age. The so called pastor pleaded guilty and confessed that he had been battling with his sexuality for many years. He was sentenced in the UK to eight months in prison and placed on the UK sex offenders' register for five years.

Thank God I stopped all forms of congregational religion in 1999.

ALL Pentecostal church Pastors play a game on their women members by preaching that they worship their wives and spoil them silly with holidays, money and luxury gifts. They also tell their women members rose tinted "stories" of how they will bend over backwards to please their wives in anything and how all men should do the same for their wives. This has the effect of softening up these women members who open their wallets and become die hard defenders and funders of these guymen pastors affluent lifestyles.

I heard of a UK pastor who finished paying off his mortgage way before the 25 year term and another one preached that when his son was at Uni in a different city to where he lived in the UK, he bought a house close to the sons uni for him to live so that he will not have to suffer and at that time I was a trainee accountant cum mini cab driver who was still gullibly paying tithe from mini cab earnings and struggling while studying and trying to support a young family.

So, it was OK for me to suffer as a student but the "so called" pastors son was not cut out to suffer as a student ? The same pastor has installed his wife and latterly the said son as the leader of the church in the UK even though the son lives in Nigeria. Family affair.

Thank God I stopped going to any church in 1999.

Jeremiah 6:13 :- From the least to the greatest, their lives are ruled by greed. From prophets to priests, they are all frauds.

But Mossad could not keep Yitzhak Rabin (former Israeli Prime Minister) from being assassinated right in their very front in 1995.
