The sit down tell it all was very interesting.

Harry has a humbled personality - Maybe the several trips to Africa really humbled him.

The part he was sitting with boots on like a farmer in his poultry was cool. I will like to have one of their free range chicken stew.

Meg almost hurt herself - one can't understestimate negative media or gossips.

The most important thing is they are happy with their decision to forge their own future.

I hope his dad embrace them and welcome his grand children.

I will love to see them continuing their charity work.

Watching...beautiful, sweet and homely lady

The most important thing for now in the next few months is healings for you and your wife - don't worry about your mother for now.

I'm sorry for all you both are going through. Take care of yourselves.

Dapcity007:
I never celebrated IWEALA at all for her status in the global community for her success as an African & woman

She was elevated not based on her competency but because of identity politics, inclusivity, quota policies and affirmative action for women and blacks

I'm a pragmatic, she had nothing to show for in terms of contribution to Nigeria's economy as minister of finance during Jonathan regime upon all her ivy league academic credential in foreign universities, as MD of IMF she only serves the interest of globalists not any specific nation , same thing she would do in WTO

Dapcity007:
I agree freedom of choice let's stop shaming housewives for their decisions, these gynocentric era mainstream media should promote motherhood as they promote women to aspire in their chosen carriers and professions

Mrs. Okonjo is married with four successful children - you should celebrate her for that housewifey role.

.

Be accommodating to others who are different from you. It doesn't change who I am if I go into a restroom and a transgender is in the other one. We all should coexist.

doxijaw:
It's the other way round. Conservatism is the bedrock of fiscal conservative policies.

Trans issues are not a big deal lol, you want grown hairy men sharing bathrooms with your daughter?

What's actually intellectual about leftism?, with their hatred for order, wealth creation, science and common sense.

Yeah double digit iq indeed!

Thanks Mariah, good morning.

mariahAngel:
This is a very good advice.

Do you see any hair on his head ?

The shinning you see is due to his onye ego.

deltateam:
Why is Ned shining then?

You learn to accept things at least train your mind to accept the reality of what you can't change.

tunary:
Old age without achievement nko?

Too much stress/pressure.

Are you exercising and eating right ?

IgboWarlord:
I dont have problem with ageing..My own issue is with ageing properly..I dont wanna be 30 and look 45...I'm 27 and i know probably look at least 35..It saddens me when people older than me or my age call me uncle,elder,bros or brother..The thing dey pain me..

March Christmas is good. Happy new year in advance.

FatherCHRISTMAS:
Merry Christmas in advance

Yeah also possible after he built the house, he asked his parents to move in. Then cousin 1 came to visit followed by cousin 2, 3 and 4. They all came to visit but didn't go back.
Son asked them to leave before they ruin his home but pa said no they should stay. He doesn't have time to fight so he gifted the house to the church. Maybe after years of quarrel and abuses.
It is common just that some don't donate but fight to get back their home.

hush15:
These people are not saying the truth.His son abroad can't and won't give a house his father built or contributed to build.

Am sure they short changing the guy on the property he sent money to build and the thinking of how to get back at them decided to go that route.

People may blindly attack the church but think am, you say na family house but na only the boy papa with four tenants dey stay house! Is that a family house.

Thanks father christmas.

FatherCHRISTMAS:
Regardless how the situation might be, be happy because the situation could have been worse.

May "merry Christmas" always be as bright as the stars.for us all
Be happy

Lmao exactly. Exactly what I thought happened. I pity the aged father though.
With four cousins living there, it is easy to see what the real story was all about.
I hope he rented a place for him.

mastermaestro:
Simple. I am sure he is pissed with his family. On the part of the church, they will not release the house documents because the guy is ready to testify against his family anytime, anywhere.
How this case will end wholly depends on the donor (owner). Unfortunately the donor will tell his family that he doesn't want to lose his 'blessing'.

I agree with you. Just imagine that part of the story. I think the house belongs to Shed guy and he is tired of having a home in Nigeria so gifted it to the church.

mastermaestro:
I am not taking sides. But I strongly believe that the donor is the sole owner of the house. The family is grieved because they have no alternative accommodation. Since it has to do with church and pastor, everyone will twist the story to dent the image of the church. How could many people contribute to build a house? Lame defence to get public sympathy.
For them to say that he brought the lion's share proves that he singlehandedly built the house.
It is not a family house. People should learn to tell the truth.

Most likely it is his house - also they said he contributed the lion share...Someone can't just come from abroad and ask people living in a home to move out now.
You don't have to be privy to deduced some things.
Maybe it is nollywood story sef.

But for the father - he should have rethought the whole thing...anyway Nigeria story - there is always more to it.

DarkJeddi:
Where did you read that it is his house?
Are you privy to any other information apart from the one contained in the OP?

It is his house - since he feels he, his wife and children are not coming back or if they do, they will build a new home, he is free to donate to charity.

Those family living in it should move out.

Who knows they have been living there for years free of charge and responsibility while fighting the guy over his house.

signature2012:
Isn't this too much for monthly expenses?If you spend this in a month,you have to net atleast $10k monthly.

Not too much. Living in a good community is great idea and cost more...rent 2000 or more or mortgage 4000 or more such community.

Lol,

Ishilove:
Buhahahaha! A whole two mirrors? Why na?

sanpipita:
Maybe he went to order some Isiewu he will be back

Isewu brought me back - by the order of isewu, I will be here.

For me, when i get my hair braided, they tell me of the lone ranger - I asked them to hand me two mirrors.

Ishilove:
It's still there, sitting, silvery and long in a sea of roiling black. I have plucked it several times but it keeps growing back sturdier than the last time. Nowadays I just stare at it in fascination when I'm oiling my body and wondering when the rest of the black sea will turn silver.

I agree with you about being conscious as the years go by but we carry on - foot print in the sand of time.

crackhaus:
But seriously, no jokes... I have seen those lyrics somewhere before

I tell you say you be trouble maker
Na only one person be philosopher ?

Good morning.

Ishilove, I read your post and looked out the window into the waterfront from my office and nodded my head. You are right.

Btw, I got my first grey at 17 too.

crackhaus:
Why do I feel like I have heard/read this somewhere before...

Ishi, I hope you're not lifting someone else's intellectual property without giving due credit?

Nice excerpts and that's how it should be - working together and teaming for a common goal.

Nothing else.

Nah - na placenta him dey pick on instead of enjoying fatherhood and bonding with baby and wifey.

The hospital should have been the one to recycle or disposed the waste.

Hope he is not using style to suspect the old woman of voodoo kinda cuz dem believe baby destiny tie to placenta

saphiya:
After going through 9 nine months of pregnancy and labour your wife deserve some love and care at this time and you refuse to see your son because of placenta
Issorite keep it up, just know that even if you reconcile she won't forget this, never

Their Wahala too much my brother It done be like competition - if madam no complain na oga dey complain. Husband that should be cool as cucumber dey nag about placenta. She no plant coconut tree on top, na guava, no na ube better etc Obi let us hear word

Kriss216:
Married people, una wahala don dey too much for this forum.

ogub:
Calling off the wedding shouldn't have been the first thing to do he could have met with his prospective in-laws and tell them what he can afford to spend for the wedding and hear what they have to say

Don't you see he is happy now as he and the rest have the atm to themselves - till he finds his woman, continue doing your job of eye opening jare.
Next lady!

Zayn's problem is tough - he is the atm

David's wifey hygiene problem can be solved.

Korede is planning to get lost forever

Chinedu, it is never greener younger - forget baller

Mo, I wonder if you gave her the cash equivalent ?

Marriage is teamwork and patience.

Marry her if both families consented and move far away.

He really loved the woman's family!

Op, bia

He eats 5 times a day never do you to pick race ?
He complained of your inability to contribute never do you to pick race ?
You fit cook 5 times a day while contributing for the next 20 years ?

Thank your goodness that he showed you something. Now pack your bags and go home. Just strike that out from your mind - see it as a good experience and learn.

No matter how the head strong reach, if they stand on it, the head no go broke ? The head na rock ?

IyaTola:
People would be angry/bitter at uncles & aunties for not taking care of them but not with the parents who had them with no future plans. Your parents have 8 kids but your uncle with 4 kids is wicked because his children travel for summer when you haven't paid school fees. How

"A friend's elder sister was married off at a young age so he could go to Uni. He's working now & is burdened with raising his sister's children & the other kids his parents kept having while he was at Uni (the youngest is barely 6).

It's a very long, lonely road ahead for him."

That said, Black Tax is EVIL!
It's not older/richer child responsibility. It's not love or duty. It's not parental enjoyment of the fruits of labour. It's EVIL.

This thing, where parents heap their heavy burden of other children on the first child or the child who earns more.

Now that you're done with school, you must take care of the family. Now that you're a banker, you must start paying fees for your younger ones. Now that you're this, now that you're that.

A first daughter has been married for barely three months. Her husband happens to be quite well-off. She asked her siblings not to make any demands from the man, as it won't tell well of their family. But her younger sister believes she's wrong, and wants to go over her head and ask her brother-in-law for money. After all, the man is generous and will give if asked. Besides, he should be catering to his wife's family of five. Not to mention siblings who become entitled, lazy and oh-so-demanding.

A friend asked if a certain federal university in Nigeria charged 200k per session. That's what her younger brother asks for each year - minus books, practicals, exam fees, photosynthesis and parallelogram . She's working her butt off abroad, slaving for ungrateful, thieving, lying twats! .

On the rare occasions that she complains, her parents throw out one proverb about how the head of a first child is for the younger siblings to stand on. My heart breaks for the mostly oldest children in their forties and late thirties, who haven't had the chance to build investment portfolios, have reasonable savings, find love and marriage, buy themselves new things, build their dreams - because they're caring for younger ones.
