If it was common it would be known, nothing stays hidden, that means it rarely happens

A lot of things happen behind closed doors that married people do not talk about to friends and extended family members.

Am not being silly if only the man is breadwinning the woman should do the chores and care for kids.
If they both breadwin EQUALLY then they can split the chores.
But seriously how many women have you seen providing(finicially) for the family, please answer sincerely and not cause you want to support ladies, i have seen women with jobs and stores, yet the man still provides solely, And even if the wife was to provide in place of the man for even a short time like a month, that man would be emasculated and treated like a second rate human.

Most women that provide for the family won't come and tell you cos they don't want the world to think less of their husbands.

It is good to help others who are in need!

Whoever signed that did cos of the money they planned to embezzle from the loan. Most of the loans have not really made any tangible impact 'cos 3|4 of the loan has been embezzled without really using them for why they got the loan in the first place.
Our Leaders are selfish and are blindly selling the future of this great country for peanuts.

WHY YOU SHOULD NEVER GIVE UP

He is a cultural dancer.

He needed N70,000 for the treatment of his sick child.

He decided to have a stage dance to raise the funds.

He designed a flyer and started sharing it around his neighbourhood during the day and reharsing his dance routine in the night.

His expectations were very high.

Then the day came.

The stage was set and it was time.

To his dissapointment, it was ONLY a small teenage boy that showed up for the event.

But he told himself, "I wont chicken out, I must dance and give my best."

Then he started dancing.

He made sure he gave his best as rehearsed to the admiration of the boy.

After the show, the boy left and the man went home sorrowful.

Purpose defeated.

Status quo remain the same.

He was devastated and depressed.

But something surprising happened the following morning.

The only boy that showed up for the show was the son of a senator. He had always wanted to be a dancer and his father had approved it.

The boy had been charged with the responsibility to get a personal trainer and coach.

Unknown to the dancer, he was auditioning for a job.

The senator called the dancer and gave him a contract of N200,000 monthly salary to train his son with N100,000 upfront payment.

Wow!

Sometimes, it looks like you are wasting your life when only few people show up for your event/program, engaged your post or buy your stuff.

No, you are not.

Always give it your best shot. See those few people as millions in your mind.

Don't be discouraged from either doing it again or giving it your best.

You might actually be auditioning for the big stage.

You don't audition with the crowd but with few people that will give you the big stage.

Keep giving it your best.

People will call you names and laugh at you.

But keep showing up better.

You are an inch closer to the big stage.

Hope this inspires you����

More than inspired!

Is there any hope for this country?......

Same question I have been asking myself with no positive answer in sight! We can all work together to make her great again.

MrChilaka:
Hi good day, Some people don't care about details they just let prize of the unit do the choosing for them, while others look at the whole picture. That said, I would do a comparison for you on the Butterfly JH8190, Heavy duty Singer 4423 machine and Brother XM2701 (all three are in same category but offer different features) then you can make your choice on what you want. Will quote you when done.

Please, how much is singer 4423 machine, Sir?

Mindlog:
You lose the assertiveness when you begin to explain why you are saying NO, giving the other person the opportunity to whittle your resolve.

Personally, I have internalized it and learnt how not to feel guilty when I say NO to whatever/ whoever I can't say YES to.

Very wise of you!

Educative!

Inspiring !

I said some not all actors. RMD, kunle Afolayan, Afeez Owo, Saka, Femi Adebayo, Ramsey Noah, Ay makun are few among the actors that are doing well.
Besides, not all female actresses are rich. it is just that female actresses know how to make kobo appear like million dollar....they know how to fake it till they make it!

paulolee:

it seems we all are now used to the inequality thats happening in our movie industry..
the actresses keep moving forward and are miles ahead from the actors..
the females keep hitting the gold mine in the industry while the men are jus no where to be found...
i get the feeling that some actors would be wishing that they were females...
big shout out to all the "hustling" actress that are making real cash from the industry, i dnt know how they are doing it or what they are really doing bt Karma is reaL shaa..

Some of the male actors waste their money on women, alcohol, partying, and drugs instead of investing in business!

Why Niger Delta Must Be Sovereign*

Why Fulani's Will Never Stop Their Agenda*

How We Got to this Sorry State by The Greed Of a Few*

From the Archives of Intelligence Gathering Vault*

A must read piece to the end.

Igbo political leaders and their past misadventures resulting in current national political problems*

Do you know that when Tafawa Balewa was Prime Minister of Nigeria;

Chief of Army Staff was from SE
Chief of Naval Staff was from SE
IG of Police was from SE
Chief of Defence staff was fron SE
Internal Affairs Minister SE
External Affairs Minister SE
Education Minister South SE
Many other key ministries to SE
Parliament President SE
Unilag VC from SE
University of Ibadan VC from SE
North resisted same at ABU!

Still there was dissatisfaction by easterners; the officers from the region killed this same Balewa!

Out of all the most senior officers in Nigeria, SE has 37, none was killed. 8 from the north, all of them were killed. 10 from the west, 2 were killed.

Then Ironsi imposed a unitary system of government on the country so that everything can belong to a region who snatched it!

We must know our history so that when we want to make corrections, we will not end up concealing the truth. This has nothing to do with tribalism but everything to do with the truth.....at times when lies litter the streets. There is the tendency to think those are truths and facts.

What follows are documented facts that can be cross checked for authenticity!

Thou shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free.

Prof. Ben Nwabueze was the man who drafted the constitution that took away powers from regions and handed it to the central govt because his brother Aguiyi Ironsi was the head of state then. Today, he is shouting restructuring that he helped to destroy. We won’t forget.

Let those who have ears hear.
*What Biafrans will never tell you about the real cause of their woes in Nigeria today*
The Igbo man is known to enjoy blaming the Hausa-fulanis, Yorubas and indeed every other Nigerian tribe and Lord Luggard/Britain for their seeming claim of being in third class citizen status in Nigeria.

In their perpetual attempts to play the victim card, they recount the political events of Nigeria from 1914 to the present in a half-baked and highly selective manner which cleverly avoids the mention of the roles played by their elite who by all natural laws of judgement were actually responsible for the woes that befell not only the Igbo race but the entire Nigeria nation.

The story told in the post above is one of such selective and distorted accounts of history which the average Igbo man is fond of narrating. However, the national archives have the complete and unedited history of Nigeria regarding the political events beginning way back from even before 1914.

I will therefore proceed to furnish my readers with the complete story for all to read and be endowed with enough facts so as to judge and act from an informed position.

Shortly after the 1914 Amalgamation of the Northern and Southern Protectorates, it started getting clear that the country was bound to fail as the amalgamation in question was done with colonial fiat without the consent and consensus of the different tribes which were over 300.

This prompted the political leaders to start asking for de-amalgamation so as to forestall the future danger which the forced amalgamation portended. To that end, Ahmadu Bello, speaking on behalf of the Northern protectorate in 1944 described the amalgamation as:

"The mistake of 1914 which if allowed to remain will ultimately lead to unstoppable bloodshed and a failed country".

Awolowo, speaking on behalf of the Yorubas and Western minorities, described Nigeria as a mere geographical expression not qualified to be called a country let alone a nation. Awolowo added that if the amalgamation could not be reversed, then Nigeria should be structured as a strictly federal state so as to enable each tribe enjoy autonomy this freedom from being dominated by any one single tribe.

But Nnamdi Azikiwe, speaking for the Igbos, denounced Awolowo and Ahmadu Bello, terming them ethnic champions. He accused them of nursing a sectional agenda against the unity of Nigeria, and he declared further that the Unity of Nigeria was non-negotiable.

After moving the motion for independece in 1953, Anthony Enahoro proposed that a secession clause should be incorporated into the future constitution of Nigeria so as to give legal backing for any tribe to peacefully exit the forced union if it feels marginalized in future.

According to Enahoro, such provision in our constitution would instill in all Nigeria's future leaders the fear of the consequences of misgovernance.

But Azikiwe, speaking on behalf of Igbos, rose against him in the parliament and labelled him an agent of disunity, and enemy of Nigeria.

At a later date, Awolowo too made a case for secession clause, but Azikiwe again resisted him and instigated the colonial authorities to threaten him and Enahoro with charges of treasonable felony if they didn't stop proposing secession clause for the future constitution.

While Azikiwe did all these, Igbos cheered and urged him on because they felt the future Nigeria was theirs to dominate and lord it over every other tribe

Before independece, Tafawa Balewa too had in a public speech described Nigeria as a British experiment and Nigeria's unity as a British intention which Nigerians themselves don't believe in.

But Azikiwe kicked and demonized him too. Had Azikiwe co-operated with Enahoro, Awolowo, Ahmadu Bello and Tafawa Balewa about the secession clause, Nigeria perhaps would not have been this misgoverned.

For those in doubt, here is a link of one of the numerous instances in which Nnamdi Azikiwe fought against the secession clause proposal for the future Nigeria constitution.

*https://www.thenewsnigeria.com.ng/…/my-opposition-to-seces…/*

It should be noted that there were many Igbo members of the parliament in which Azikiwe fought against Awolowo's secession clause proposal in the link above, but not a single one of them rose against Azikiwe or condemned him.

Igbos initially never wanted to hear anything like secession in Nigeria because they so much believed, though falsely, that they were the most educated tribe. (The first Nigerian tribe to produce a university graduate is the Binis).

As an evidence of Igbo domination agenda hence their initial resistance to the idea of secession; here are some quotes:

"From all indications, the god of us Igbos have destined us to rule the whole of Africa"..... Nnamdi Azikiwe (1945).

"It is getting clearer each day that Igbo domination of Nigeria is just a question of time"... Oscar Onyeamma. (1949)

As at 1900, the whole of the present Benue State, Kogi East Senatorial District and some southern parts of Taraba State called Munchi District back then; were all in the Southern Protectorate.

Whoever doubts this should consult MacMillan Atlas for secondary schools in Nigeria.
With that situation the South had a higher population than the North hence always had an upper hand in any democratic bargain.

But as at the early fifties when the regions were being created, common sense dictated clearly that these areas should fall in the future Eastern Region.

But against common sense, the colonial masters decided to gerrymander them into the Northern Region.

While they did that, Azikiwe who was supposed to be in Enugu fighting against it as the leader of the East, was far away in Ibadan struggling with Awolowo to rule the Western Region and also playing the spoiler role against Awolowo's attempts to have Kwara and present Kogi Yorubas carved into the Western Region from the North which was already too large by landmass.

While he abandoned his burning house and was far away in Ibadan struggling against Awolowo for his own (Awolowo's) region, Igbos saw absolutely nothing wrong with that. Rather they applauded him as a nationalist. A nationalist whose house was burning yet busy chasing rats in a far away land.

When opinions became unanimous that Lord Luggard and his government must be forced out of Nigeria and indeed the whole of Africa, it was still the Igbos that frustrated the attempts.

Here is how:
In 1948, Anthony Enahoro organized an anti-colonization symposium in Lagos for which Azikiwe and some other Igbos had agreed to deliver the keynote address.

But when the D-day came, Azikiwe was nowhere to be found as he deliberately disappeared into thin air for fear of being arrested and dealt with by Lord Luggard.

Anthony Enahoro then quickly replaced Azikiwe with another person who did the job improptu but perfectly well as he lambasted and lampooned Lord Luggard and the British Government.

However, the British soldiers invaded the symposium venue, arrested the speaker and Enahoro and jailed them for treasonable felony.

Ironically, the next day Azikiwe came out of hiding and granted a radio interview in which he accused Enahoro and the other organizers of suffering from youthful exuberance.

On regaining his freedom few weeks later and being told of Azikiwe's radio interview, Enahoro resigned from his post as Editor of Azikiwe's newspaper - The West African Pilot.

Then he wrote a book titled "Nnamdi Azikiwe: Sinner of Saint".

After launching the book, Enahoro left Azikiwe's party - the NCNC, and moved over to Awolowo's Action Group.

The first military coup in Nigeria was carried out by majority of Igbo army officers.

That was the coup that truncated democracy just six years post Independence and led to a succession of coups which put the country on the reverse gear for 33 years.

Through that first coup, those Igbo army officers who accused the politicians and government of the day of monumental corruption, killed the political leaders of the Northern, Western and Midwestern Regions but allowed all Igbo political figures to escape by tipping them off prior to the D-Day.

In addition to the killing of political figures, they also killed a total of 27 innocent high ranking military officers from every region except their Eastern Region.

*In the end an Igbo man called Aguiyi Ironsi, who was supposed to have been killed alongside other military officers, ended up becoming the new military ruler of Nigeria*

*Rather than immediately arrest and punish the coup plotters, he kept them in detention where they were treated as heroes.

It’s high time Yoruba nation intelligentsia go to works, see how we can relate and equitably accommodate the Igbos without undermining our own interests. Yes Nigeria is a nation but the Igbo people will not allow a fraction of what we tolerate in Lagos in Ochanja (Onitsha), Aba, Enugu and the likes.

I love reading history!

Southerners are busy fighting and beefing each other while the Northerners are busy helping each other into public offices and enriching themselves.

If you approach a fellow Southerner for help especially job related, he will tell you how you need five years experience whereas for a northerner all his brother needs to get employment is a northern name cos he believes his brother can learn on the job.
Southerners don't help each other where it matters. Southerners prefer to give you remnant of what they have than to teach you how to fish cos they want to be seen as god.
