MISSCONGENIALITY:
Something happened to me on Sunday that made me wonder what people would have been writing if I had died.
Went to cute my hair and even tinted it pink. I'm not the going out type i love my sleep on Sundays. But then i got someone who could cut, curl and tint it for me that Sunday and then i said let me do it since other days of the week are work days.
I didn't drive cos left my car at the mechanic on Saturday.
Now on my way back after making this beautiful hair and I loved the new look. I took Keke and on my way an impatient driver hit us off the road and i fell out as the driver was struggling with the steering so that we don't tumble.
The luck we had was that the Keke man wasn't on speed and he was not also in the middle of the road if not an oncoming car may have smashed me when I fell.
The crazy part of it is that that he didn't stop.
I had bruises all over my body and while everyone was cursing the mad driver, i was speechless. Many people fell like that and died.
If I had died, maybe the story would have been that my Yahoo boyfriend dumped me by the road side, of that i went to do ashawo and was killed in a hotel and later dumped by the road side.
Or if they never got to see my body, the story might be that i ran off with a man. Some people who know me well may even say it's her sugar Daddy that got her the car she's been driving and maybe his wife heard it and sent people to kill her.
And then i realized that the dead doesn't hear all these lies that fly about because they are dead. It's the living the cook up stories about a dead they know not how it occured. Even those who witness and know how it occured may decide to add their own sugar or change the whole narrative.
May her soul rest in peace.

Sorry about what happened, hope you're recuperating well..

So you mean if you date a woman whose parents do not reside in your locality, or where they say traditional marriage would be done outside your locality, and would have to travel nothing less than four hours, you would just be quitting the relationship anyhow.

Well, i use to think this way too, but you have to just sit and map things out, maybe use a flight or some other means if you are afraid to go like average and below average Nigerians who have committed their safety in the hands of God.

My Edo friend here in Lagos married an Anambra Lady and traditional was held in Anambra, he saved up for it, used flight and today, he is happily married. Everything is about determination and planning. Insecurity can catch up with anyone anywhere, even in your house.

Has Agbero caught up with you once while driving in traffic in the evening, Omo you go know say, when it comes to insecurity, our security apparatus is overstretched and not closely available when needed. Considering you have a good woman, with all you have stated, nothing is too small to make that relationship work and be purposeful.

ValCon888:
Most likely carbon monoxide poisoning.
They couldn't fûck with the windows open.
So the man shut all the windows and switched on the AC.

And that was the beginning of the end.

Edit: Let me break it down for those who don't understand.

The SUV's engine produces a lot of toxic gases which flows through the vehicle's exhaust system.

The most common way of carbon monoxide poisoning is when the car’s AC is on and it is parked in a garage or a space with limited airflow.

The SUV’s AC intake pulls in the air which now mixes with the exhaust gases.

The carbon monoxide is odourless, so it goes undetected and slowly kills the occupants of the car.

You're right with this, I was studying on quora when I came by a write up on this.

I remember gisting with my boss in the office about this guy's marital brouhaha, I said when a man has money, he knows his left from right but when he has no money, he hardly knows the difference and goes with the tide.

wumi2017:
Hahaha, maybe na only you dey view yourself for her status...you never heard of """who can view her status""

You go like vawulence

So sad, may their soul rest in perfect peace. Third mainland bridge wey person dey ply wella... Accidents on that bridge can be so fatal considering most people drive at high speed when there's no traffic.

barrackozone:
You're very correct bro.

She has always displayed that level of bravery since I married her but she took it to the next level yesterday.

I was already "shitting in my pants".

I swear down, you're so funny mehn... Your wife na the real odogwu... You na odiegwu.. You need to dey salute that your wife wella....

I have this married female colleague in my office who cares less if her husband marries another woman, so long he doesn't bring it to their house, and so long his love for the home doesn't decrease, no wahala. Infact, her husband is rich and has many admirers that even the wife is aware of, he keeps no secret away from his wife because he respects his wife for she earned it, yet so far he's committed to his home. Shey you see those ladies that are screaming, over their dead body, I can't take this shit, I can't allow a second wife, it's my husband, I can't share with another, na dem their husband dey cheat pass and even plan to marry a second wife sef...

Well for me, right from time, I'm never a fan of polygamy...

chiommy123:
Marriage is truly scary this days but I blame the society for always shaming unmarried woman cos she married her husband when she is obviously in love with another guy

Love and marriage guardian,

welldone o....

Be enjoying your sit at home o.

My only concern is you cooking for another woman's husband, all shades of wrong, most especially, a man whose wife's not staying with. What if his wife suddenly comes in one evening and find you there, the outcome would be so unimaginable depending on the woman. So my dear, even if the man is of good intentions, just pray his far away wife doesn't come home suddenly as a surprise to her husband. Anyway, muslin men believe they're entitled to more than one woman, so his wife might not be too aggressive seeing you, like I said, 'might'.

No b who get job go think of well paying jobs. My oga once showed me a CV forwarded to us by our HR so we can review if he matches our needs, the young man has families, he is way advance in age, and had had no job for many years, even though we rejected the CV for having no programming skills. Then my oga said we are in a long depressing situation as a country because the level of joblessness in Nigeria is a time bomb soon to explode.

It was an inspiring and fulfilling session with papa today, may God continually bless him.

In our society from time immemorial, a man is entitled to more than one wife, and the way our women are now conditioned, they pardon their husbands when they cheat, we can see the case of sammy okposo, 2face, 9ice amongst a host of others, but hardly would you see a woman that cheated, the husband knows and the woman still retains her marriage. For me, Cheating is a deal-breaker, as you dey cheat, just dey pack your load go your papa house, a cheat, if they do not kill themselves, would kill their partner one day. No one should cheat, and if any cheats, they can discuss either to continue their union or go separate ways. For me, I would go for the latter.

Sure they can but it's not the job description of an engineer doesn't mean engineers can't replace technicians if need be

A doctor can do the work of a nurse or pharmacist , or even lab scientists but that doesn't change the job description of a doctor

Notice the dress code for engineers n technicians ?

Engineers are theory, analysis and research based
Which is the difficult part

Technicians are mostly practical inclined which requires less brain power u are shown what to do n you do it

You're right, no doubt about that, we engineers are basically more into invention, build, design, test new complex systems and also design to fulfill functional objectives, taking into consideration the limitations.

Infact, we do far complex and technical simulations way beyond the understanding of technicians. Engineers can also work as technicians but you have to consider the type of facility and company employee strength.

For big companies, you would hardly see engineers doing jobs of technicians but for small companies, such might be inevitable.

It disgusts me when anyone thinks they are indispensable. No one is indispensable, You haven't just found how to wiggle your way out yet. Thanks to Lithuania for teaching others how it is done.

9japride:
Will Smith is not serious, he should learn to be a man. Someone that was laughing at the joke Chris made but all of a sudden change mood when his narcissistic wife gave him corner eye look. I wonder how people still pretend that such narcissistic fellows will ever change? He's wife is not a nice person, she only cares about herself. I pity Smith.

You're right, the slap was uncalled for considering he was initially smiling at the pass. He allowed his wife's emotion got into his head and ruined his perfect moment. As a man, he ought to have thought twice creating such scenes that night, a sweet night he longed for only to be marred by his irrational decision. Even though Rock is a veteran at dissing people and sees it as joke, but Smith should have used another means at registering his wife's displeasure or waited till when emotions are low then call the guy out if need be.

Russian Airforce's Ilyushin Il-87 Aimak Doomsday Plane a.k.a "The Flying Kremlin" already undergoing Nuclear drills.

The $716m personal flying plane of the Russian president dubbed as the flying Kremlin which came to service 2009 has no known nuke resistance capabilities as Doomsday plane of the US President who came to service in the 80s. The doomsday can withstand the aftermath of the detonation of a nuclear Blast, can go 12hours in air without refuelling, dubbed as the Backup Pentagon, can reach any US command centre in the world, and it's the only plane in the world on 24hours alert and ready to be deployed immediately. The flying Kremlin can't and can never equal the doomsday and no nuclear drills any where for the flying Kremlin abeg. Putin is very intelligent and savvy, but he sometimes over hypes himself than supposed. The doomsday is nearly six stories building tall O... No dey over hype the Russian President plane

I just feel at this point, there's a need to involve a third party, especially a pastor if you both attend a Bible believing church which I believe you both should. Since her family supports her recklessness towards her marriage, talk to the most senior pastor in your church, I'm sure she's keeping lots things from you. Most women who resort to silent treatment, be careful, they keep lots in their mind, and keep secrets alot so you really need to be patient, be adventurous in treating them. Don't go harsh on her yet, see if you can win her back if you genuinely still love her. If you see all fails, and she's still offering you maximum disrespects, you're in charge of your house, you're in the driver seat, you're the head of the house, if she's going to be in your house, then she must be and act like your wife reminding her again of what it takes to be your wife and if she wants the marriage to break, without fear, ask her, better out than be in a marriage where only one partner is the one interested in making it work, it drains.

If you know you don't have the financial muscle, video and picture evidences to pull a challenge to them, just don't push further. Just pick yourself together and fix your car whose cost should be lesser compared to a lawsuit. I know most bullion vans drive with reckless abandon, but since the bullion van seems to have no business inside Enugu shoprite, how then did you pull over without having your car's trunk on the road and yet got hit by them?

You did right, why settle for a woman whose attitudes are at conflict with your standard and desire.

For me, Mauritius still remains the best African country to relocate to, English and French speakers would easily set in, they are way ahead of Nigeria, nice environment, so safe, the crime rate is low, they are welcoming to foreigners, their women might not be as cute as ours, they have a nice nightlife, beautiful country, nature is beautiful in the country as there are many things to appreciate like diverse wildlife, sensational beaches, and it is still one of the wealthiest African countries if not the wealthiest. For me, if it is not Mauritius then it is Botswana. Talking of currency, 1dollar = 44.5 Mauritius Rupee(Mauritius currency). Even the prospect of getting a job is cool for a foreigner, and for developers, demands are at an all-time high.

Truvelisback:
None of these countries can face Russia one on one.

Because most of the countries don't see a need to excessively build nuclear warheads. Some countries in NATO even signed a treaty to never build a nuclear weapon or at all anything that can cause huge destruction to human race unlike your Russia that takes pride in developing warheads. That's the reason why you see Russia boasts of many warheads. If every countries develop nukes like Russia, then the world is doomed.

Cindy222, see a thread� for you. First time seeing this.

tonididdy:
Pfff... Nothing survives nuclear, only a miracle

Even a miracle cannot save anyone, how does one survive the radiation and the supernova bro, no way. Depending on your radius, it is either immediate death, skin burn that can lead to death, blindness, it is not even imaginable. Nukes are no no no.........The worst part is, the radius of instant death can cover a wide range of kilometers......

farouk2much:
No be say they're weak.... Putin is stronger than the fvcking NATO.... Long live putin

You talk like a child just as Zelensky, Russia is armed with nukes and putin is not afraid of losses, and said times without number, that the world can't exist without Russia in it and he's ready to destroy like never before. Many Africans as you and many more have found solace in Europe and US to achieve their educational dream, career dream and dine with big shots and they work with top giant firms, then the growth built over many years, the development, should go into ruin because of Zelensky, and send many Europeans into destitution, homelessness and in the end to no gain.

Russia is not afraid of death, even if his country ruins, but he would drag the world down with him, that's his point. Putin is not stronger than NATO, the war can swing in either direction, it is nukes we're talking here, the best tactical country would win, and even you hiding in Nigeria isn't safe.

qekng40:
If the person sleep near you, na to dey give am better kick or slap so that they'll reset!

Putin is this you?
Or Assad of Syria

Putin said the West are economic bandits. These sanctions are way too sudden, and Russia would bounce back with time.

Sanely, why should any country have nuclear weapons, biological weapons, chemical weapons, these are weapon of mass destruction and UN ought to deter nations from having it, and those with it should decommission it.

The parody account who issued that stupid statement disguising as president needs be arrested and jailed. Not every thing you play with in times like this. Once that is driven, it would serve as deterrent to others who seeks cheap publicity over a super power exercising a military quest. Nigeria is no match to Ukraine in everything talk of Russia. You would end up seeing the guy's a secondary boy or university student just catching cruise that can send him to jail.

Well, unfortunate as at is, this a tool used by armies in times of war. During peace keeping mission, such was announced by the host countries, even in the North East here, media outlets have reported it countless times in our IDP Camps, even the US armies were accused of same during their foreign mission, but despite all this, no one was punished because it is hardly proven and in times of war, evidences are always never available, and no one is going to subject his armies to regular court processes even after the war especially if the war is of interest to the host country or international body.

Dollywood:
Ukrainians are no match for Russians. I mean, we all know Russia mean no harm. Don't join the fucking West. Simple. Y'all neighbours, it's like some betrayal shit, but doing it pathetically.

Why should one sovereign nation tell another what to do and not what to do?

Zenlensky can decide who to join or not, the oligarchy in Russia is what everyone fears, the dictator in Russia can one day tell him to kneel down but if he allies with US, their presidency changes, unlike in Russia where one man has chosen to rule till eternity, and you would live with your nemesis forever until if eventually death comes. I'd rather align with the west than Russia if I were him. His only mistake was not having and growing some military arsenals before the grandstanding. If he has some nukes, like maybe Israel, and thinks like NK President, even Russia would calm down small.

emmykk:
You are over hyping Russian 5secs US can take out Russian not to mention combine force. Of NATO.

What they are considering the innocent death

USA can't dare try it on their own and win. With allies involved for both nations, the results could swing in both directions, tech analyst from over the world even gave Russia a nod to win a war with NATO, but I'm sure that would be Russia been backed with allies.

If USA go head on with Russia, no one can tell the winner and the damage on both sides would be disastrous. When I checked the military capabilities of both countries by weaponry both land, air and naval, I know the reason why US and her allies didn't want to go to an avoidable, needless war with Russia. Russia is deadly, and her military readiness is almost equivalent to USA. UK and France are no match , Russia is the only country in the world that boast of hypersonic missile and their ballistic missiles have far reaching range than all of USA and her allies combined. Russia didn't come to play, they have military strength that if merged with just NK, can submerge the whole World, Nigeria inclusive.
