Lie @bolded 1
They don't know they have a choice@bolded 2

If anyone doesn't know she has a choice, such a person sure deserves nursing in a m-clinic than rant rubbish on public fora.

And if it is people like you who are educating them on their choice power, then we will pray for than pity them.

People allow emotions to dictate their choices and come out mourning when the consequences greet them.

Life is a journey of deals; if you get a wrong one it's your cup of agonies!

We just won't accept than a bunch of immature, grumpy and irritant minds who think marriage is a cake-party than a life of love and responsibilities are doing our cherished wives and sisters justice.

Hahahahahaha
he sounds pained o
good for your wife then. so why are you having headache over other people? Shebi you are happily married? Face your wife and enjoy and stop telling other people shit! PHD and westerner my foot!

I guess low-level assholes like you who will rather get busy moaning and wailing after attracting your likes deserve empathies.

You hate being told the truth, yet won't accept responsibilities for digging the holes you earnestly want to crawl from.

If you hate, remember you are in this grumpy minority, beingafemaleinNigeria,get out and get yourselves better deals.

Feminism is about taking responsibility for your life and choices too. Equality doesn't mean shunning quality!

Enjoy your sorrows, dear!

You see why it makes more sense to get busy struggling to do postgraduate degrees than spend 5 years post-NYSC chasing elusive jobs?

With the boom in the university sector,strategic PhD holders can conveniently make 1 million Naira lecturing and visiting others universities to teach too.

I saw this years ago and advised friends with the resources to study on; they rushed away to 'find husbands' and look for jobs that they haven't found.

We mustn't all be academics, yet there is a discipline that accommodates our talents and all we have passion for. And if you doubt that academics are the post positioned for greater opportunities, think again. From Jonathan to Osinbajo from Fayemi to Borno state's Kashim Shetimma, from Lamido Sanusi to Abaribe, from Soludo to Osunbor,from Amos Ituama to Sola Adeyeye,there is a trend in our society that subtly reserves the best of our leadership opportunities to academics.

Yes,all those and many others I can't list here were lecturers in our universities.

Vision; my friend, strategic visions!

We pray more blow themselves up in Jesus name!

This government is doing in about a month what the drunk and clueless PhD stealer of Otueke couldn't do in 6 years.

Yes, this is what visionary leadership is. My crystal balls tell me Mr Osinbajo may become out president sooner than we think!

Since Wali is due to retire in August,her appointment makes more sense and will secure the commission from any last minute lootings!

That is the way it should be!

And someone will marry this one. State your argument without being abusive. How do you plan on being patient with your wife?

I am happily married to a beautiful woman with a gold soul who won't send me a 'yimu' line over an opinion. For your info, I live in the West and educated to a PhD level here: just to make your myopic conclusions shame you.

Of course,I can only pray for the fellow who is or will be your spouse looking through your lines.

Can't people be champions of gender respectfulness without bile? Have our extreme gong hitting created brighter days for our relationships?

Nigeria need youths who are enlightened enough to be clear thinkers.

Let Afrocandy send Michelle Obama a proposal too!

If he likes let him change his gender, all that fights hard to destroy him are within him. He is his own restless evil!

bukatyne:
Care to explain the bolded?

Women do not work where you are from or the work they do is different from that of men?

In organizations, is the job description according to sex or skills?

All this 'men work hard to fend for their family is utter nonsense'...

How many wives are housewives??

Stop your shallow misreading; my post speaks to the context of the thread. Marriage and all forms of male-female relationships are created around choice. Those gadflies can do better than send out nonsense as highlights of male-female relationships.

Why do people live with what they can only bewail?

Enough of these 'scorpions in a bottle' games abeg.

netizenbuzz:
*yimu*

From your perspective, women who want men that can take care of them shouldn't be tagged as gold diggers then. It is african culture for the man to provide na?

This dark mind dares again. You just are sick; yes too sick to make even a slight sense.

I have read the ignorant chants of ethnic champions here on this appointment. Too sad that most of our youths are unclear thinkers.

Is she an INEC commissioner? Yes!
Has she become the substantive INEC boss? NO!

She is an INEC commissioner, one of the very few not retiring before September. She is acting; yet our bigots won't see that.

The retired buffoon of Bayelsa state led the crudest era of cronyism, nepostism and corruption since our independence, these same people hailed him a messiah.

I have no fears for Nigeria today; I have deep fears for her tomorrow when these anonymous ignorant youths will emerge anywhere as leaders.

I guess an advert warning broke guys to keep off her is part of beingafemaleinNigeria!

They want the best; yet rarely have any substance to offer. Then they get what they are worth, and it becomes a chorus line. BeingafemaleinNigeria!

You said no spark initially, yet your greed took you out to meet him again. I guess it is part of beingafemaleinNigeria!

Where are the saTANs? I am sure FFK, like Sylva, was freed by Mr Buhari too!

Nigeria is in need of clear thinkers, truth champions and real patriots. Those who will rarely see issues from the lenses of ethnicity and ignorance.

I am sure the mothers of these females will disagree with them. A vocal few are pontificating as speakers of a happy and fulfilled majority. Nonsense!

They can go and live anywhere in the whole wide world,if they so hate the Naija culture of male and female relationships.

Most men work hard, provide for their wives and die as slaves to the care concept of marriage. How many of them are complaining?

Ours sisters must get real and stop reading too many soft magazines in the West and cease watching reality shows of jobless women in the US and the UK.

We are Africans. We are conservative;yet we love and respect our women. Of course, most of them are happy with us!

frisky2good:
Although I have not been able to confirm if the passport being circulated online by that website that is now practically synonymous with blackmail is genuine, I will base my argument on the assumption that "IF IT HAPPENS TO BE TRUE". My reason is simple: If it is found to be false, No case. It is only if the passport is confirmed to be genuine that we need to waste time deliberating on what the constitution says about the matter.

Now, what makes an individual a bonafide citizen of this country?
According to the constitution (section 25),

25. (1) The following persons are citizens of Nigeria by birth-namely-

(a) every person born in Nigeria before the date of independence, either of whose parents or any of whose grandparents belongs or belonged to a community indigenous to Nigeria;

Provided that a person shall not become a citizen of Nigeria by virtue of this section if neither of his parents nor any of his grandparents was born in Nigeria.

(b) every person born in Nigeria after the date of independence either of whose parents or any of whose grandparents is a citizen of Nigeria; and

(c) every person born outside Nigeria either of whose parents is a citizen of Nigeria.

There are other criteria but let me stop here. Now, I do not know where Bukky was born but I know his parents were born here in Nigeria so he's a Nigerian ...........right?


Ok, let's continue.

What makes a man with a British passport become a Non-Nigerian? The constitution has the answer.

28. (1) Subject to the other provisions of this section, a person shall forfeit forthwith his Nigerian citizenship if, not being a citizen of Nigeria by birth, he acquires or retains the citizenship or nationality of a country, other than Nigeria, of which he is not a citizen by birth.

Please read this sentence very well because in this case if Bukky was either born in Nigeria or Uk, this section does not nullify his Nigerian citizenship.

Having established that Mr. Saraki is a bonafide Nigerian citizen, let's go to chapter IV (NATIONAL ASSEMBLY)

Qualifications for Membership of National Assembly and Right of Attendance

65

(1) Subject to the provisions of section 66 of this Constitution, a person shall be qualified for election as a member of:

(a) the Senate, if he is a citizen of Nigeria and has attained the age of 35 years

And what (concerning citizenship) disqualifies an individual?

66

[b](1) No person shall be qualified for election to the Senate or the House of Representatives if:

(a) subject to the provisions of section 28 of this Constitution, he has voluntarily acquired the citizenship of a country other than Nigeria or, except in such cases as may be prescribed by the National Assembly, has made a declaration of allegiance to such a country;

[/b]Since we have established that Saraki is a Nigerian citizen by virtue of his satisfying the provisions of section 28 of the constitution of the Federal republic of Nigeria, I conclude based on the facts available that Saraki is qualified for the position of Senate president.

The op does not understand the limits of his subjective interpretation of our constitution. So, as Antonion Scalia espoused, let the op use the literary interpretation rule and tell us what this means:
[b](1) No person shall be qualified for election to the Senate or the House of Representatives if:

[i] (a) subject to the provisions of section 28 of this Constitution, he has voluntarily acquired the citizenship of a country other than Nigeria or, except in such cases as may be prescribed by the National Assembly, has made a declaration of allegiance to such a country;

It is a decision you need to take with your hubby.You need not bring such issues here;communicate these thoughts and your anxiety to your hubby and work with him to achieving what is best for you two.

All forms of abuses are bad and unjustifiable.A physical abuse is worse in my view.

Be sure that you are conducting yourself in ways that does not inspire her thinking that you are cheating.While she should have the liberty to work or not,you have to get her to work immediately,even if for a short time.Yes,in that case,she will know the value of earning and the necessity of prudent expenditure.A woman who is jobless is more likely to be grumpy.

More importantly,it was so wrong of you to slap her.I do understand how tempting it can get when angry and confronted with some women's extreme verbal misbehaviour,but just restrain yourself and understand that she is you in another body.She is your wife;respect and never physically muscle her.

Your in-laws' reactions are normal and fair for you slapping her.She is their daughter,and the very act of slapping her insults them.Visit them and apologize to her parents.Then explain what the issues are;of course,you will be wrong on this occasion.

It is all an experience that will deepen your marriage;you guys are growing.I have been there and I sharing this from a realistic heart.

The months of doing it 'every minute' were great,just constructively bear this season of sexual famine.Be sure that the 'every minute' bang is not sustainable;yet he is obliged to keep you pleasure-full.Yes,talk to him about how bad you feel about him dodging this marital duty,and ask him if there are things you BOTH can do to make your sex life richer and more active.

I must say though that it is very bad to even conceive romance in all its shades with his cousin.Infidelity should never be a thought in a marriage.If you ever see the need to cheat on him,just quit the marriage first. Goodluck!

It is not compulsory but it is an opportunity to bond,share love,chat and deepen the teamism that marriage is.Of course,either can and should eat alone when the other is away far beyond meal time.

This what visionary and serious leadership is about!I don't see why Fashola and this guy won't make a great pair for the presidency soon enough!

Stealing is bad,but those jungle and sick judges standing all around the guy should be mobilizing to tie-up and injure the members of the National Assembly,not a poor boy!

These thieves and evil men masquerading as our representatives and leaders are largely our problem.

Our armoured tanks and resources should be directed at purging Nigeria of these forces against hope as we fight to rid her of Boko Haram too!

abraka00:
Seriously u are brain- dead.

Yes,brain dead enough to know that you are permanently sick!

Odia talks too much and has stayed an angry poet for too long after working as Awo's private secretary!

If Buhari has no political backbone,na cow backbone e use become president?

I don't know why people underate this hard Fulani man despite all evidence to the contrary!

By the way,Odia can run for political leadership positions to drive his dreams and ideas than eternally playing a critic role.Na him mates dey be presidents and governors!

[quote author=abraka00 post=34819556][/quote]Happy?Insane?Wow,this babe must be suffering from mid-life crisis!

A factual statement to complement an incomplete understanding is no wrong.

Anyway,let me not play the mud game that piglets like you play.

uniknet:
Stop playing to the gallery. You were one of those present when the elections took place, did you raise any objections when Ekweremadu was nominated? Now he wants to come out as the saint.

If you read the full interview,he said he was away when the voting place and ran down to see Saraki being sworn in when he heard about it.

Yes,he wasn't there when they voted in Saraki!

shaybebaby:
I am amazed you can keep a straight face typing that. Regards to your goddess.

You are pathetic.Each to his/her own;my preference is clear and settled.

By the way,I read your topic on marital sexlessness awhile back;I pondered it ironies for seconds.Talk about some lines of interesting but agonizing paradoxes.

My goddess is here with her head on my chest saying hi to a stranger I once mentioned to her.
