Kennitrust:
Good day my follow Nairalanders.

Everyday, life opens a new chapter of life to us. My own chapter had been opened and and it read... "it time to get married.

In the church I attended, there I met this girl so mature enough to be taken in as a wife. I approach her for the first time and I started asking her out. Seem she knew my intention, she started asking me about my church life, my family, my business and all that not.

To be honest with her, I did my best to answer every question in the language she could understand.

She seems not still satisfied with my account, she sent me this message at about 5am.
Said until I respond to those questions, she won't have anything to do with me again.

I'm truly confused on wether everyone that finds love 💕 really goes through this rigorous question.

And more about her life, she spent almost everyday in church after work. She said if I'm truly serious, I should also be as serious as she is in going and participating in all weekly activities in the church.

Please help, how do I answer this questions, since it the only options she said can bring us together?

These are some of the basic questions most Christian men were asked by marriage committee. Nothing too serious. You can respond and then take the conversation deeper. Responding to these questions don't guarantee marriage success.
You can respond and ask her your own to test her depth.

Provided she didn't just copy and paste the question, they are fine.

Misconceptions About Female Virginity We Need To Address😤

A lot of conversations around virginity in Nigeria focus on what a woman “owes” a man. But the truth is simple: sexual purity is first a gift a woman gives to herself, not anybody else.

When a young woman avoids early sex, she’s protecting her own future no early pregnancy, no STDs, fewer emotional scars, and a clearer head to build her life.

Another point many people still misunderstand: not every woman bleeds during her first sexual experience. The hymen is not a “seal” but a thin, stretchy tissue that differs from person to person. Sports, cycling, stretching, medical exams, and even tampon use can affect it. So bleeding (or not bleeding) is not proof of anything.

Ironically, many men already know this but the society won't let them trust the authenticity of a noble process🥲 This is why as a lady, it becomes important to hold these conversations with 'him' ensuring his level of maturity transcends that level of understanding.

At the same time, the cultural value many Nigerian men place on marrying a virgin is not wrong... Just look at Nairaland, there's that guy that asks on every wedding photoshoot thread if she's a virgin🥲 ...It encourages discipline, culture, responsibility, and stable family values. But women should also demand the same standard: if you’re keeping yourself, make sure the man you choose is also morally, emotionally, and sexually disciplined

Purity shouldn’t be one one-sided and I think this is especially important for parents of boys to teach their kids. A sexually disciplined man will not only reach great heights, he lessens the number of traps anyone could use for him💯

There’s a unique pride, peace of mind, and emotional stability that comes with sexual purity no fear of infections, no past body count regrets, no unnecessary soul ties. And yes, there’s a confidence in walking through your street or campus with your head high, knowing you’re a diamond nobody has ever accessed.

Let’s promote facts, responsibility, and mutual respect not pressure or shame.

Thanks for this beautiful write-up.

I am happy we still have young people who think this way. Chastity and fidelity is a big thing and ought to remain big conversations.

You are trying way too hard to project your bitterness and low expectations of women onto me, but I have the time to answer you today.😋😋

First of all, let’s address your sad attempt to make me feel small with your "royal persona" comparison. Royalty isn't just a title or a bloodline; it's a state of mind and a standard of behavior.

I told you, when look in the mirror, what I see is a queen. It doesn't matter if life tries to put me down; I absolutely refuse to relegate myself to the dirt just because others are comfortable there. My self-worth isn't up for debate or comparison with women who lack the discipline to match their aesthetics. It's not my fault that you think your daughter isn't a royalty just because you are not a king! 😋🙂

Secondly, you keep calling having a next-door "Chike" an "opportunity." That right there tells me everything I need to know about your mindset. Marital breakdown is a sad tragedy, not a golden "opportunity" to audition for the streets. A woman who does what his wife did has absolutely no class.

If life happens and a husband goes rogue, a woman of value doesn't sneak around to get even. You take your time, handle it with dignity, go through with a divorce, meet good guys, select the best to avoid making the same mistake, and properly start a new life. That is what class is.

And boy... I will repeat this again! you really need to go back and actually listen to Mr. Frank's podcast again with your ears open this time. He wasn't exactly "keeping malice" he resorted to non-violent means of handling the matter. There is a massive difference, but I guess nuance is lost on someone trying so hard to justify bad behavior.🤷‍♂️

As for your little hypothetical question: "If your current boyfriend decides to ignore you for 3 months, will you wait or try the new guy?"

If a boyfriend ignores me for three months, he is no longer my boyfriend. Period. I don't cheat; I pack up and leave. It’s called having boundaries and self-respect. You should look into it. And it is for this reason I am taking time to enlighten you on this issue and hopefully you'll pass the message to your daughter🙂

Since you are so convinced that every woman's morality is in the mud and that cheating is just a natural response to being neglected, let me also ask you this again since it triggered you, obviously 🤣. If this so-called "opportunity" happens to your daughter, would you encourage her to do the same? Will you pat her on the back for throwing her dignity away with the next-door neighbor just because her husband was distant?

Answer that.

Gold 🌹 🍷

You are a very smart person.
I like your responses. I also like the fact that you respect boundaries and condemned infidelity in any guise.

Thank you

No u are the confused one

If you were not confused, you would have been able to explain your comment about Islam and the Cross of Jesus Christ.

I gave you many weeks to do and yet you failed woefully. That's pathetic

jeff1993:

Exactly my point: you are somewhat confused and muddling things up

MyExpression:
He did his professional degree in FUTO, and passed.

So he's advanced from Msc to Phd to Prof.
Same way you can study for these degrees from awarding academic institutions.

Thanks for the clarification.
I appreciate his rich CV.

I only asked for clarity cos the write up said he did 1st degree, Masters and PhD at Michael Okpara Umuahia and stated all the places he worked and also said he brought 20 years professional experience to FUTO and was also awarded professorship by FUTO. This implies he currently lectures in FUTO.

I only wanted the writer to show the link from Michael Okpara to FUTO. It is missing in the write up.

The focus should have been on the current work in FUTO that earned him the award.

Thanks again

*Abia-Born Scholar, Victor Odoemelam, Rises to Professor at FUTO*

The Federal University of Technology, Owerri (FUTO) has elevated Dr. Victor Udodirim Odoemelam to the rank of Professor, following a formal approval by the institution’s Governing Council. The announcement, which circulated within academic circles this week, marks a major career milestone for the animal scientist whose research into plant-based livestock solutions has drawn international attention.
‎
A native of Umuezewuzie Ikpabo Nneato in Umunneochi Local Government Area of Abia State, the newly minted Professor brings over two decades of academic rigor to FUTO’s Department of Animal Science and Technology. Prior to his elevation, Prof. Odoemelam served as a Senior Lecturer and had once held the position of Secretary, and currently the Chairman of the Board of Council Chapel of Revelation at the Michael Okpara University of Agriculture, Umudike (MOUAU).
‎
‎Born in Ogoja, Cross River State, Prof. Odoemelam’s educational path reflects a truly Nigerian tapestry. He began his early schooling at Prisons Model Primary School, Gboko, Benue State, before proceeding to St. John’s Boys Day and Gboko High School for his junior secondary education. He completed his senior secondary schooling at Oboro Secondary School, Ikwuano, Abia State.
‎
‎He gained admission into MOUAU, where he obtained a B. Agric. in Animal Science. After his National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) stint in Ile-Ife, Osun State, he returned to his alma mater for postgraduate studies, earning an M.Sc. and a Ph.D. in Animal Production and Livestock Management.
‎
‎Throughout his ascent, Prof. Odoemelam has attracted significant funding and scholarly recognition. As an undergraduate, he was a beneficiary of the Federal Government of Nigeria Undergraduate Scholarship. He later clinched the Innovators of Tomorrow (IOT) STEP-B Research Grant a World Bank-assisted project that buoyed his postgraduate research.
‎
‎In 2014, he was selected by Israel’s Agency for International Development Cooperation (MASHAV) for specialized training in Intensive Dairy Cattle Production. Two years later, he received a VLIR-UOS scholarship from the Belgian Development Cooperation and the Flemish Interuniversity Council for training in Dairy Nutrition. In 2020, he was a visiting scholar in the Department of Animal Science at Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka.
‎
‎At the core of the new Professor’s scholarly output is the use of phytogenic feed additives plant-based derivatives such as herbs and spices in livestock feed. His work explores these natural compounds as potential alternatives to antibiotics, their modulation of digestive enzymes, and their capacity to reduce methane production in ruminants. He has also supervised a robust number of undergraduate and postgraduate research projects. He has over 70 scholarly publications in reputable peer reviewed journals and conference proceedings.
‎
‎Prof. Odoemelam is married to his heartthrob, and the union is blessed with two children Faith and Chikauchem.
‎

‎Academic and religious leaders from Abia, Benue, and Imo states have since begun sending congratulatory messages, describing his elevation as “well-deserved” and a testament to perseverance and intellectual excellence.

Congratulations Prof! Well done Sir.

But then I read the write up but didn't see the connection to your work in FUTO.

...... I don't dispute .... The christians have turned around the symbol of torture of their Lord to a symbol of resurrection, a symbol of Hope and happiness. who are you to keep claiming it's a symbol of torture. Are u more intelligent than 1000s of early Christian historians, prophet and philosophers?

The symbol of Moon in Islam, does it mean Allah is a 🌙 moon god??

I am struggling to see your point really...

I Threatened My Staff To Stop Going to Church or Else I Will Sack Him, But He Quit Instead - Folarin

Veteran Yoruba Nollywood actor Ladi Folarin has opened up about a past decision he now deeply regrets, revealing how it affected both his business and personal reflection on faith. In an interview with FeelRightNews TV, the actor recounted an experience from the time he managed a tea company, where a conflict arose between workplace expectations and an employee’s religious commitment.

According to Folarin, he had employed a staff member who was a devoted member of Deeper Life Church. The employee maintained a consistent routine of leaving work every day at 6 p.m. to attend church services. While this practice was important to the worker, it frequently clashed with the demands of the business, especially during periods when supplies needed urgent attention.

Folarin admitted that the situation became increasingly frustrating for him. Eventually, his dissatisfaction reached a breaking point, prompting him to confront the employee with a strict ultimatum. He demanded that the worker either stop attending church services during work hours or face termination. Rather than compromise his religious beliefs, the employee chose to resign. Folarin then proceeded to dismiss him.

Not long after this incident, Folarin’s tea business began to decline and ultimately collapsed. Reflecting on the sequence of events, the actor expressed a sense of remorse, stating that he now believes his actions contributed to the downfall of the company. He explained that, in hindsight, he viewed his ultimatum as a challenge to the employee’s faith and, by extension, a challenge to God.

His words; "When I was running my tea company, I employed a staff member who was a member of Deeper Life Church. Every day by 6 pm, he would leave the work we were doing and tell me that he wanted to go to church. Most of the time, we usually had supplies to handle, so I got angry one day and told him that he either stopped going to that church or I would sack him. He then accepted to quit the job, so I fired him. Shortly after that, my business crumbled. Later, I realized that I had challenged God by telling the guy to choose between my work and God."

What is the contract?

Was there a 3rd option aside from the 2 presented here?

Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass; it’s about how we walk through the rain together.

I’m currently putting together an article on the 'Reality of Life and Relationships' using this image as a case study. Looking at these four couples, they all face the same rain and carry the same bags, but their dynamics are totally different.

To you, which couple represents true happiness? And more importantly, WHY? Your perspectives will help shape my upcoming piece. Let’s discuss in the comments! 👇

2 appears to be the happiest...less baggage, man even allowed the umbrella to cover the woman more and yet is still smiling. The man also looks simple and care-free.

1 looks happy. They both have a baggage but 2 had just one baggage.

jeff1993:
U.... I don't have any business with either of your religions.


If u claimthe cross is a symbol of torture and whatnot... Then u should be able to even accept more that Allah is a moon god.

It's not a claim. It is a historical fact that the Romans used the cross for torture. It is also a historical fact that Jesus of Nazareth was crucified on the cross.

What do you want to dispute about those?

FashionAfrica:
Nobody like Jesus, before Jesus Nobody, After Jesus Nobody. Still Millennia ahead of the world in terms of thinking. Igwe

True. Jesus is phenomenal. A great teacher, miracle worker, master, son of God, express image of the Godhead and the saviour of the world
He will ultimately judge all humans.

jeff1993:
Just as the symbol of moon represents that Islam is God is a moon god

Please throw more light.

But you agree with the symbol of the Cross to Christianity stemming from Jesus of Nazareth crucified on the cross and raised back to life by God?

tincityboy:
In essence all my ancestors and yours that never had christ died in vain... This religion thing de make me question whether we humans are really the most intelligent in the animal kingdom..

Atheists and godless people have no basis to talk about human intelligence, human hierarchy in the animal kingdom, human rights, humans values. Thru believe we are no anything more than dusts and atoms working like mechanical objects and without a purpose. Why do you bother about human intelligence hierarchy?

Romans 2:12-16 NIV
[12] All who sin apart from the law will also perish apart from the law, and all who sin under the law will be judged by the law.

[13] For it is not those who hear the law who are righteous in God’s sight, but it is those who obey the law who will be declared righteous.

[14] (Indeed, when Gentiles, who do not have the law, do by nature things required by the law, they are a law for themselves, even though they do not have the law.

[15] They show that the requirements of the law are written on their hearts, their consciences also bearing witness, and their thoughts sometimes accusing them and at other times even defending them.)

[16] This will take place on the day when God judges people’s secrets through Jesus Christ, as my gospel declares.

ALFADOS:
you will be accounted for your sin on the day of judgement so brother chill, no body die for your sin

Jesus of Nazareth died on the cross of Calvary to save all humans from sin. The choice is open to everyone who WILLS to accept him and be saved by faith.

On the day of judgement and reckoning, Jesus's atoning death, blood and his resurrection will speak for me.

In my opinion, there is nothing like sexual incompatibility for adults who have no medical /health issues. Fornication does not confirm sexual compatibility,it's a mindset thing.
Men will say they are testing sexual compatibility by sampling different ladies ,then turn around to shame ladies for having high body count.Lol

Secondly, I wasn't a virgin. Despite, maintaining sexual purity all through my teenage years till early adulthood,I lost my virginity in my final year in university in a painful and heartbreaking manner. It took a great toll on me and I had to see a psychologist.

Thankfully,I was able to overcome the bitter experience and graduated.

I met a lot of guys who didn't agree to "No sex, No spending" and after few weeks of talking / hanging out (which I always paid my bills to avoid them feeling entitled to sleep with me),the friendship will die a natural death...and I will move on quickly...No tears,you no waste my time,you no chop me.

We need more comments from people like you here.
This is how it ought to be. There are a lot of aberrations on relationship now coupled with high rate of infidelity and sexual immorality in the society

Obrigardo:
This man hasn't prosecuted one of the pedophiles, criminals and evil men exposed in the epstein files.
He hasn't even acknowledged his involvement and deep ties with epstein or found restitution.
He has killed children and overseen the destruction of towns and cities and also allowed the IDF to commit unwanton evil with the weapons and money he sends to them from US taxpayers money.

Doesn't this look like a joke to you Nigerian Christians who still support this man?

This is ridiculous, Jesus Christ!

You make a category error.

People may look at President Trump and admire him for different reasons but that doesn't make him Jesus Christ. In all humans anyone picks what they admire and leave our the rest.

So it's okay to admire President Trump in some areas. It's absolutely normal and okay.

Axis313:
Cross was a tool used by the Romans to torture criminals, the same cross is now seen as the religion symbol of some people.

Yes. Because Jesus of Nazareth was crucified on the cross of Calvary. This is why Christianity identifies with the cross of Jesus. Not that the cross is a symbol of pleasure or satisfaction.

AntiChristian:
You saw a cross that the Jews used to punish criminals and you wept!

He's already inclined before.

So cross is a symbol of Christianity and not idolatry now?

The Romans crucified criminals on the cross and it later became a symbol of torture, pains and humiliation. Nothing changed from that perspective except that Jesus Christ of Nazareth was also crucified on the cross, humiliated and buried thereafter. He rose again from the dead.

Christianity identifies with the cross because of Jesus of Nazareth. It didn't remove the suffering associated with the cross. They identify with the cross as the painful object Jesus died on to save the world from sin.

Atheists and skeptics also know the cross is a symbol of pain and suffering. They also repeat the clause " to carry one's cross" after Jesus said everyone needs to carry their cross....

It depends on your standard at moment.

If you are financially sustainable,you can go ahead to assist her.

Paying evils with evil elongated to a disastrous moment.

Thank God you are blessed now,what if she was in your life but you are being poor.

If you cannot forgo the past,you are putting yourself in boundage.

If you have what you can give away go ahead bros.

God will bless you abundantly.

You will be richer and richer.

God had forgiven us countless times.

If she was good to you when you are together, please help her.

Leaving you might not be fully her fault since you are not ready at that moment and later had limited time to wait for a suitors.

I think you know better than us.

If you have the means, talk to your and let her know you want to assist your friend. Of course ensure you and the old friend are separated by a very long distance with no plan to meet in the near future.

Then help her and just leave it at that. No strings attached. If you could help your enemies and all who dealt with you when you were growing up, how much more a friend.

Most men won't have some unwanted issues if they carried their wives along. It makes most things open, transparent and reduce certain temptations.

https://thecradle.co/articles/from-lions-roar-to-cats-meow-israeli-media-officials-decry-tel-avivs-latest-failure-in-lebanon

Implication of your write-up: Many Israelis do actually support their govt to continue the campaign against their aggressors. This is contrary to some opinions alleging the Israelis are not behind they govt or PM.

Implication number 2: Israel has the capacity to continue the campaign but was pressured by the US to halt it, not to stop it.

Implication 3: Trump wields a lot of influence over Israel to have been able to pressure them to halt.

Implication 4: Iran pressured Trump to pressure Israel to stop. Implying Iran needed the ceasefire to work.

Implication 5: The citizens know fully well that Israel has the capacity to forge ahead and are saying Israel should continue.

Implication 6: Almost everyone wants peace and stability in that region including me. The after-effects of the war globally is negative and extreme hardship for many. We all want peace.

dododawa1:
Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said Friday that the strategic Strait of Hormuz, vital for the global oil trade, will remain “completely open” to commercial ships as long as a ceasefire in the Middle East holds.

“The passage for all commercial vessels through Strait of Hormuz is declared completely open for the remaining period of ceasefire,” Araghchi said on X.

It was not clear whether he was speaking of the 10-day truce agreed by Lebanon and Israel that went into effect at midnight or an earlier two-week truce between Iran and the United States that began on April 8.

Iran, which sent shockwaves through the global economy by essentially blocking passage through the crucial Strait, had made the extension of a ceasefire to Lebanon a condition of opening the waterway, state media reported.

Lebanon was drawn into the broader war launched by the United States and Israel on February 28 when Hezbollah attacked Israel in support of Iran, its key ally.

An Iranian senior military official told the state broadcaster that only civilian vessels would be allowed passage through designated routes and with permission of the navy of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.

The passage of military vessels through the Strait of Hormuz remains prohibited,” the official said.

US President Donald Trump welcomed the Iranian announcement that the narrow waterway would be open, but said the US naval blockade of Iranian ports would remain in place until a peace deal with Tehran was reached.

“The naval blockade will remain in full force and effect as it pertains to Iran, only, until such time as our transaction with Iran is 100% complete,” Trump said on his Truth Social network, adding that “this process should go very quickly”.

Oil prices that had spiked during the supply disruptions plunged after the Iranian announcement of opening the Strait.

Thank God. Let fuel prices come down for the common man. We need peace in the world.

SmartPolician:
If you don't have someone in government, don't waste your time applying. Embassies and consulates are the toughest places that random people can get jobs. 99% of their workers are based on recommendations and referrals.

I think you read in a hurry.

The USA doesn't have Senate sanctioned Ambassadors in many countries plus Nigeria.
Those are the gaps or vacancies being referenced here. Maybe diplomatic issues. Maybe current priorities. We may not know why.

SixSeven:
One more thing to add to your post. Aside those words, it shows the person lacks empathy and was not raised well. Family is everything and more. Anyone who tries to convince us otherwise lacks those foundation. Be it Asia, Africa, Antarctica or Europe or even New Zealand, family is a big deal and it is the foundation of the ecosystem. Those who lack love can't give it back. It is not a pay me back system, it is HUMAN.

Africans do not believe in individualism. It is

Thank you so much for this.
Family is everything, whether at infancy, mid life or as aged adults. We take care of our own.

Kobojunkie:
I hope in turn that life ensures to put you through the lessons necessary for helping you reality truth from your many delusions. 🥱🥱

By the special grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, I am doing my best to train my children well and also save for my old age. I do hope my children will take care of me in our family home using the funds I will save. I also pray they do well and raise responsible and godly families and then the cycle continues.

If you wish to be dumped in a care home by your family at your old age, that is your tea of cup. I pray God Almighty do your bid.

Kobojunkie:
Children here are dependents, not vulnerables. The term vulnerable is typically applied to adults who are sick or elderly. It is for this reason that I, in my response, specifically used the term children and vulnerable together in the sentence to show the separation between the two. 🥱🥱

Dependent: relying on another for support

Vulnerable: capable of being physically or emotionally wounded; open to attack or damage

Those 2 words are not exclusive to children. Your argument is not strong.

Kobojunkie:
I call you to think carefully before responding, please. 😒😒

No contract means no obligation exists for the children of these vulnerable people. No obligation means the onus is on the vulnerable individuals themselves to do all that is possible to provide for themselves the care they envision they would need. 😒😒

I pray you get a good spouse and good children who will be responsible to take care of you at your old age. But I also see you are okay with being dumped at old people's home at your old age. If that is what you wish yourself, that's fine.

Kobojunkie:
I call you to think carefully before responding, please. 😒😒

No contract means no obligation exists for the children of these vulnerable people. No obligation means the onus is on the vulnerable individuals themselves to do all that is possible to provide for themselves the care they envision they would need. 😒😒

You keep shooting yourself in the foot:

"No obligation means the onus is on the vulnerable individuals themselves to do all that is possible to provide for themselves the care they envision they would need"

This quote of yours above is counter-productive and dissolves all your arguments.

Children are vulnerable at young age.
Aged parents are vulnerable at older ages.
Both are vulnerable. Your point? All vulnerable people should take care of themselves? Read that again. Lol

Mirasteel:
Power play? Lol. do you even know the meaning?

Yes you do know what I am saying. It's clear as the daylight abg doesn't require too many definitions.
