masterpiecer: How did you come to this conclusion? Did you conduct a research like its done during a Phd dissertation? I knew many Nigerian children back in the day born to married Nigerian couples who never divorced but their father was not in their lives because he is polygamous and too busy chasing after anything in skirt. I know many Nigerian kids whose parents never divorced and lived under the same roof yet the father never took an active part in raising the children and left it all to his wife the mother of the kids. What about all those rude spoilt children of Nigerian big men/politicians whose parents are not divorced yet their parents failed to give them a moral upbringing and today they are a complete nuisance to Nigerian society and perhaps the world? They go about spending daddy's money which he looted from the Nigerian coffers in the UK, USA, South Africa and wherever else. Did abdumutallab the under wear bomber not grow up in a two parent home? Just admit that you have a bias against people raised in a single parent home. Please don't blame the kids and adults raised by divorced parents because it is not their fault that their parent's marraige failed. Some people had to divorce because they were in abusive marital relationships. Look at the late Titi Arowolo who was butchered by her husband. Now her daughter will grow up without a mother because her mother is dead and without a father because his behind is in jail. Would you rather prefer children born to abusive parents face that? It is better to divorce and let peace and sanity reign in the home. Atleast both parents will stay alive and the children will have atleast one parent dedicated to raising and providing for them. 2 Likes |

This post reeks of propaganda and frustration born out of the fact that people are not interested in scam leadership training programs which offer nothing and relieve them of their hard earned money. Beware of leadership training scams that try to give you "get rich quick" tips n tricks the trainers cant use themselves. Burn those propaganda packs and study "true" history, spirituality, philosophy and logic. These help you become a wiser and better person by developing your capacity for critical thinking, enabling you to see through all kinds of conspiracies and propaganda. 1 Like |

Great post!She makes a lot of valid points.I am an information junkie yet know how difficult it can be to pick up a book and read to the end.It is something that can only be done through a strong will and the desire to see yourself become a better person. |

Kayuzze1: pretty good man.. Check out yourself and your friend now.. Did reading of those 'motivational' books put you far ahead of your friend nw? One thing i learnt from all this books is that it makes people want to pattern their life alongside that of the author.. Dont get me wrong people, I am not against people reading inspirational or motivational books, but it is not a pre-requisite to acheiving something great.. Instead, your utmost desire to achieve should come first, and making sure you maximize your God's given skills,ability,talent and potential... Once you put this in place, I bet the sky will be your startin point...ponder! Funny enough, most people will not read motivational books if they do not have the desire to achieve success via maximizing their God's given skils... Like some put it "All readers are not leaders, but all leaders are readers". |

Blackmen don't read.When a blackman reads he is considered to be acting white.That stereotype seems to be 90 percent correct. Blackmen forgot that what gave them freedom from slavery in the West was BOOK.Yes,they got freedom through generations of activists that read amongst all black slaves that were denied opportunities to read.They read and their eyes opened and shone like torch light. The dangerous trend among young ones in Universities is that they make it look cool if your not the book type.Its all about fast money,fast cars,runs girls running to catch the fast guys and their fast money,cultism ,pinging,facebooking,music talent shows on entertainment which has exalted music/artiste so much that all a young kids wants to be is Whizkid,whizboy and spoilt child Davido etc Most of us do not read enough to know the history of this trend from at least 30 yrs back.In the good old days ,being educated was a great value .Graduates lead the way in all spheres.Nigeria was internationaly up comming,greater than all South East asian countries,India and so on. Then Buhari struck in 1983.His governance and subsequent ones intentionaly killed education,just because the northern islamic culture was very anti Western/modern education.The Khaki illiterates that joined the army wre in cold war with the educated civilians.They humiliated the educated ones.Have you asked why an average Aboki loves the army and not the airforce or navy. The above trend plus the the American media trend that use entertainment to portray black success coupled to make every kid aspire to be like snoop dogg or Rick Ross.Now money comes first. |

NICE PIECE BRO. ITS UNFORTUNATE PERSONAL DEVT SCHEME IS GOING DOWN ALL OVER THE WORLD,BUT THE GOOD THING IS THAT THOSE THAT REFUSE TO DEVELOP TODAY WILL REMAIN UNDER THOSE THAT HAVE DEVELOPED THEMSELVES.THE ONE THING U CANNT DO TO A MENTALLY LAZY PERSON IS FORCE HIM TO STUDY. I USE TO GET ANGRY WHEN I SEE HOW PEOPLE RELEGATE STUDYING TO THE BACKGROUND UNTIL IT DONE ON ME THAT YOU WILL NEED SUCH PEOPLE FOR MENIAL JOBS IN THE FUTURE. MOST OF US THINK AFTER GRADUATION STUDYING IS A TABOO NOT KNOWING THAT REAL STUDY STARTS AFTER GRADUATION,I WAS TAKEN ABACK WHEN I SAW D CRITICISM THAT FOLLOWED DANGOTE`S ADVERT FOR GRADUATE DRIVERS,WHAT THEY FAIL TO REALISE IS THAT SOME GRADUATE ARE EMPTY INSIDE. |

double3: Bla Bla Bla Bla...the only interesting part of this whole sorry z the pay a fee of 3750#..this man z nuthang but an office man.I know his type. Double 3, I think it really unfair that you reach such a strong inference just by reading a single article. Just because all the previous ladies you dated were gold diggers does not mean the next girl you meet will be one. Why don't you go to my facebook page and do a background check on me. Read some other articles I've written, see the quality of my wallposts, then you will have enough data to make a logical conclusion. You don't have to be on my friends list to do that. And you won't be paying a dime also. |

dasparrow: Divorce is a societal ill, do not try to justify it, the reason why these ills are now seen as normal today is because we have compromised our standards, we have traded value for insubstancial benefits, thus the result we are having today. would you rather raise your child as a single parent?, there are alot of psychological impact that this creates in the life of such child, just because it cannot be physically seen doesn't mean it would impede certain social, psychological and even physical growth in the life of such child. You may say divorce is the best option other than be physically abused by a partner, but like i initially said, when we trade values and let in compromise, what result do you expect?, what happened to the days when intended couples would court for a long period of time to be able to assertain their level of compatibility and other essential factors before finally getting married? we have thrown those days to the dust, nowadays people just meet and get married and expect eternal bliss, the fairy tale "happily ever after". The result is what we see today as broken homes/marraiges, mind you, there are also challenges that even the 2 parent homes face and that is a part of life, but the bottom line is, if something, is wrong, its wrong, no matter how widely accepted(divorce) it is, there by giving room to the large number of wayward children in the world today 1 Like |

claremont: Well-written! Most people would rather spend all day on Nairaland than spend an hour reading a book/journal/research. Nairaland is not such a bad place to spend ones time if one knows what one is doing! Somethings here are more than book/journal/reseach! But, one still need to expand one's horizon by attending to others! @OP Thanks very much...like the best piece Im reading from NL lately. A word is enough for the wise! |

mute4real: What I want to share with us today is about the pain of pleasure. We live in a world today where we are literally killing ourselves with pleasure. We are dying everyday, not out of pain as we define it, but out of pleasure. And nobody seems to be saying anything about it. We are amusing ourselves to death and nobody really cares. Stella Damascus, the Nollywood actress, shared in her column in about how a friend of hers was mad at her because when her(the friend’s) kids wanted to watch TV the only channel that the decoder was locked on Nickelodeon and the kids wanted one of the “more interesting” channels like Ben Ten where some real violence take place.Wow, it's high time we woke up from this slumber of silly pleasure at the expense of things that truly matter more and veer into this sphere of personal development (most especially as men cos the women are fast taking over since most of us abdicated our responsibility far too long) as on it hinges a whole lot which our lives depend on. Thanks for the awareness. Hope a positive change ensue. |
