But everything she says is true sha
Our men are tough
Only our women can handle them as they are
Go and see naija men married to AA or Oyibo,they do what you could never believe our men are capable of
They will be cooking and cleaning and baking without complaining
Yes honey
Yes sweetie
Running around serving guests

We went to visit one and he was baking
An Igbo man o,wearing apron and baking and serving guests
Had his wife been nigerian that will never happen
He will sit and be cracking jokes while his wife is cooking and serving

For them to marry Americans they make major adjustments which many of our men are not willing to make

This girl is very correct in her observation

I do DT for my mum cos I was raised so n same for many Naija men. so tell me y wld it so difficult to do such for my boo even in d loo? abegi things are changing oh. all old prejudiced mentality , n bias against women most especially shall pass away.

Notyourb1tch:
I will never understand why society looks down on people who are not married before a certain age. So, because someone hasn't found a life partner by the age of 30 that means their life is worthless? It's sad that people have this mentality. Some people don't want to jump into marriage just for the sake of being married and appeasing other people. Is that wrong?

Clearly, with no apology to any ego, you are nobody's bi....tch baby!

MaLAdyy:
not all Nigerian men

And this is why you are my lady. The OP is committing Ds same fallacy she is criticizing in Naija guys. no be all o us make such stupid noise from an inferiority complex state. I'm enjoying d gist though.

I have a crash on his eldest daughter... She's just too gorgeous

Yeeeee no crush am oooooooo.

Enoquin:
They really are cute. This is the first dress of Michelle I truly like but minus the black whatever attached to the gown.

cheeeezuuus! ' black whatever'? lols.

bonnybonco:
Tinubu is so bittred but one man cannot control all the structures of a National Party by producing the VP, over 70% of the party NWC, yet want Senate president, DSP, Speaker and Dspeaker. I think his greed will land him in serious political problems. The Hausa-Fulani born to rule Oligarchy will use him and mess him up. He is just an apperentice in National politics though a local champion in regional n local politics

An 'apprentice' that removed your 'experienced' GEJ with all d federal might at his disposal? I laugh in Swahili!

Cutesexy1:
Neutral

isn't that cute n sexy,? being neutral? no mind me Jo. I'm enjoying the present madness from d op.

KinkyAngela:
I laugh anytime i read/hear these naive people refer to us as illiterate, uneducated etc.

The Yorubas and ibos are busy fighting themsleves online and offline; at home and abroad, whilst we are busy consolidating our grip on the countrys political power with the president, senate president and speaker from our region.

If Buhari doesnt contest for a second tenure, the PDP which has now been stlealthly hijacked by Atiku, Saraki, Yerima etc would definaltely zoned the presidency to the North in 2019.

True talk madam.

OK. source?

lurther:
Buhari just proved one thing to Tinubu, Lai mohammed and Tinubu's teeming followers and supporters. He just proved to them that he is the number one leader of APC party. If he does not intervene APC will continue to drift apart because, APC politicians are not ready to give Tinubu that priviledge of lording over them like how he does in the south-west.

I remember watching Lai Mohammed on sunrise show (channels Tv) arrogantly asserting that APC does not have a number one leader. I had an argument with some of my yoruba friends who are Tinubu supporters and they said same. They were all shouting that Tinubu is the number one leader of APC.

Buhari's silence on this Saraki/Dogara issue have been the bane of APC's continuous and deepening Crisis.

Now, watch how Buhari proves to this deluded Lai mohammed and Tinubu's supporters that he is the number one leader of APC by breaking his silence and calling the warring factions to order.

I wonder how people will be expecting an ordinary politician to be the leader of a Ruling party, when there is a president from that party.

Buhari is simply implicit in Sarki/Dogara's emergence as leaders of the national assembly just to prove a point and his silence and breaking of his silence will further prove a point, that he is the leader and not the self-glorifying, megalomaniac and narccissitic Tinubu.

Tinubu And The Parable Of The
‘first Supper’-by Mohammed
Adamu
by Nwoguphillip: 8:58am On Jun
13
When I wrote the piece: ‘Tribute to
Tinubu: A Parody of Shakespeare’
a few friends and colleagues said
I was un-characteristically
‘patronizing’. Some wondered if I
too had not fallen for the Tinubu
‘cult of the personality’; or as one
of them put it ‘cult of the
insatiable power-seeker’. And to
quite a few of those friends and
colleagues whose opinion about
my professional integrity I do give
a damn about, I did vouchsafe
some cogent explanation: first I
said that even as I was sure they
knew me not to ‘advocate for the
devil’, yet they should not forget
that I was not one either not to
‘give the devil his due’.
I should say, for the records, that
I believed –and I still do- that
Tinubu deserved that tribute which
I paid to him; that I still think him
worthy of all the sentiments
contained therein and that I still
feel proud that I wrote that piece.
Tinubu has fathered a peaceful
political revolution in Nigeria
which has not only moved our
democracy beyond a notch by its
shattering of the myth of the
invincibility of incumbency, but it
has saved the nation from the
malignance of a ruinous era of
political impunity which was bent
on balkanizing our country.
And let me say that if Tinubu,
afterwards should, for any reason
lend the instrumentation of his
time, his prowess and his
resources in the promotion of any
contrary ideal odious or
antithetical to the noble one of
growing our democracy and
developing our nation-, I should
also, with a measure of antipathy
equal to the enthusiasm with
which I had praised him, deploy
the venom of my pen to harangue
and to dis-approbate him.
But come to think of it, if you ask
me whether I think Tinubu is ‘evil’
–politically, I should answer as
much with the affirmative ‘Yes’ as
with the negative ‘no’. For as
‘beauty is in the eyes of the
beholder’, logically-speaking I
think, so should ‘ugliness’ be also
‘in the eyes of the beholder’. And
so to a bitter PDP whose defeat
the Asiwaju’s deft, adept and
adroit politics had caused, Tinubu
is most definitely ‘evil’; and thus
in the subjective eyes of members
of PDP Tinubu is uglier than the
mythical Gorgon. But to the APC
whose political fortunes Tinubu’s
(even if) neo-Machiavellic master-
tactic has now raised from
‘nothing’ to ‘everything’, the
Jagaban is most definitely no
‘evil’ but ‘good’. and thus in the
objective eyes of sincere members
of APC Tinubu should be the
personification of beauty itself –
politically that is.
Alas, as we see presently in the
treacherous hustle and jostle for
political positions, this is not so
with the hawks and vultures in the
APC who now masquerade as
altruistic progressive change-
agents of the Buhari government.
To these neo-conservative
opportunists, all of a sudden
‘Asiwaju’ ‘The Leader’ is now
simply Tinubu ‘The meddlesome
interloper’! He is as they now
claim ‘unnecessarily interfering
with our democratic processes’
and must thus be cut to size. And
on this you cannot but have a
sense of the poignantly disgusting
and the de ja vu: especially if you
recall what the then Rhodesia’s
oppressive head Colonist Ian
Smith said to the anti-colonial
world of the 70s about
Zimbabweans: “These blacks are
spoiling my democracy!” ‘my
democracy indeed!’
Or maybe if you have some
appreciable knowledge of the
UPN’s Second Republic politics
when the then ‘Adedibu’ of that
era’s Ibadan politics, Adelabu
Adegoke, after a resounding UPN
victory achieved through the
instrumentation of Adelabu’s
political enfant terrible, was told
plainly by Awo that since he had
no western education, he could
not be a Commissioner!
Though academics is not the
basis of this comparison,
Adelabu’s reply aptly typifies,
today, the mentality of those who
have contributed next to nothing
to the birth and ascendancy of
APC, but whose hubris is now
questioning the leadership of the
man who almost singlehandedly
formed, midwifed and nurtured it
to power. Adelabu was said to
have asked rhetorically in Yoruba:
“adiye da lori iresi, sugbon ko da n
kpalo?”, meaning: ‘so cooked
chicken is good sitting atop a
bowl of rice, but a live one is not
good to grace the hallow of the
parlor?’
They said that the Asiwaju wants
to install surrogate leaders for the
legislature so he can remote-
control them. And I say:
‘assuming, without conceding, that
this is true, to what end, if we may
ask, would Tinubu want to
remote-control the NASS?’ Is it to
prevent it from passing good
progressive bills that will give
effect to the promise of ‘change’
by Buhari? Or is it to egg the
NASS on to anti-Buhari tantrums
so that the General’s government
cannot effectively function? I
really don’t get it!
And I even wonder more: did they
not invest Tinubu with all the
sobriquets and appellations of a
‘Leader’? Did they not say that he
was the courageous ‘Jagaban’;
the one who led from the front?
And did Tinubu not lead them
from the front? Selflessly giving
his time, his energy and his
resources? Did he not put his life
on the line of a hysterically
dangerous incumbency
desperately angling to keep power
by hook or crook? Did they not
say that Tinubu’s was a goal-
oriented and decisively go-getting
‘Leadership’?
And need one also ask: did we
not, to the occasional rousing
applause of Nigerians, see them
severally winning one political
battle after another under the
leadership of the Jagaban? From
when Tinubu fought to win series
of judicial victories to restore the
political control of the South West
into the hands of the
progressives; a feat which gave
the earliest fillip to the initiative
for the formation of a formidable
coalition of opposition political
parties?
Did we not see the series of
political mutations afterwards
initiated and set in motion from
the pre-natal stages, the singular
efforts of one man to corral
several ideological eggs into one
political embryo, so as to give life
to a new all-embracing political
Party around which both
progressives and even repentant
fascists could congregate to make
practicable what was thought
well-nigh impossible, namely
enacting the parting of the
political Red Sea to say to the
behemoth PDP ‘let my people go!’
But maybe what we were seeing
from aloof was different from what
exactly was happening within! But
I thought that we all saw Tinubu
burning the political candle
through nights and nights of vigils
to disprove all the known theories
of war which posit that more than
one battle cannot be fought at a
time; I thought we saw the
Asiwaju take on both INEC and
government in a proxy war with
surrogate usurpers of the
baptismal of the new political
ideology, the A-P-C! -and which
he won!
We thought that we saw Tinubu
walk the miles from the North
West to the North East; from North
Central to the South East and from
the South West to the South-
South to build strong bridges of
geo-ethnic and geo-political
consensus; planning and
strategizing to form alliances, to
create leagues of political amity
and to search out for men and
women of weight and of mettle;
political and non-political actors
with diverse gifts and varying
competences, to man the many
points of the opposition’s political
rudder.
These efforts were rewarded with
successes in the creation of the
first ever successful merger, the
formation of the first ever peoples
Party, the conduct of one of the
most transparent Party Primaries,
the emergence of the most
popular presidential candidate, the
running of the most competitive
Presidential electioneering
campaigns, and the first ever
defeat of incumbency by an
opposition party in one of the
most transparent Presidential
elections.
But now that the political dinner
table is set, surrounded,
unfortunately, by opportunistic
political vultures and hyenas, they
are telling us that although Tinubu
is an excellent political cook, he is
not as good in the culinary art of
dishing. That the Party Leader
must stay away from the Party’s
First Political Supper! In fact like
Caesar they accused the Asiwaju
of ambition. The same Tinubu who
had publicly announced that
Buhari had offered him a chance
to be on the Presidential ticket –
an offer which he said he politely
declined.
Tinubu does not deserve this kind
of treatment. The Asiwaju as the
Party Leader and the Party are the
veritable taproots of Mr.
President. If they who care about
Mr. President’s success are left at
the mercy of the Party’s vultures
and hyenas who only care about
the spoils of politics, sooner or
later the shrub of the Presidency
and its blooming foliage will feel
the wilt. It is both morally and
politically expedient that Buhari
steps in to restore rank discipline
and to assure the Asiwaju and the
Party hierarchy that he has ‘got
their back’; just like they, through
thick and thin, had always had Mr.
President’s back.

Time will tell, not pseudoanalysts

20pounds:
We shall soon find out that it was Tunde Idiagbon that was a no-nonsense disciplinarian and not Buhari.


We are watching and waiting.

and1. it was Idiagbon who , during Shagari regime, drove mataisin from Nigeria?2. Idiagbon as minister for petroleum who refused to own an oil well nor a filling station? 3. As PTF chairman refused to own an oil facility nor awarded contract to self? n later recommended Dora Akunyili as NAFDAC boss n d war against drug counterfeiting would never b same again? etc please try n research n know about your country n stop being misinformed by unfounded urban gossips! Ask your parents or elderly folks around about my claims above for a start.

oromankirisi:
.. hopefully he saw what he was looking for#

what is your assurance probability? mine is 1/2.

oromankirisi:
Nah not so sure, to check the authenticity of a painting you need an infrared reflectography,wood's light,stereoscopic microphone, IR spectroscopy etc etc..

*definitely not a walking stick*

definitely not a walking stick! the old 'soldier' was thinking he could see it all! ahahahaha. hilariously mischievous.

OP if Ds is meant in bad faith for our PMB, may you reap this seed you have sown, amen. or repent.

chukwudi44:
So in the spirit of "fairness' the SW should hold the 2 and 4 positions in the hiereachy of government even when the NC,SE and SE are yet to be represented? The truth of the matter is that the SW cabals in APC underrated these three regions and they teamed up and taught them a a lesson they wont forget in a hurry. Democracy is a game of numbers and no person or section of the country can afford to play godfather in national politics!!! Tinubu has been taught the lesson of his life.he should crawl back to the SW where they follow him like zombie without questioning his orders.Such scenarios are not applicable in national politics

Nobody follows Tinubu like zombie but rather out of respect for his sincerity n foresightedness, people follow Tinubu. I'm challenging you to name Igbo best friend in Nigeria if not Tinubu hence Igbo intelligentsia like Okorocha, Onu, igbokwe, Akabueze , Gen kanu , etc won't eva listen to uninformed ethnic bigot like you.

Volksfuhrer:
You guys still don't get it. It has nothing to do with Saraki.

Why would Tinubu install Buhari as APC flag bearer, only to desire the control of the National Assembly against Buhari? Tinubu's desire to control the legislature is to help Buhari's government achieve its goals. Buhari's indifference to who emerges as senate or house leader still beats me. He thinks this is Westminster politics where party discipline is topnotch!

You see, the people pretending to be Buhari's allies now were the same ones that fought tooth and nail against Buhari's candidature. Buhari's true supporters are genuinely behind Tinubu. But a part of the Northern cabal in APC are not necessarily Buhari's supporters, they only rode on Buhari's popularity to current political prominence.

It is this group with its sphere of influence that drums up sentiments against Tinubu as overbearing (perhaps Tinubu's Achilles). But why would they do this? (1) Buhari may come after them, and (2) they don't want change.

In any case, what I find disturbing is Buhari's inability to see through the self serving manoeuvres of these people. Tinubu truly stood by Buhari. But if the President is weak at deciphering who his true allies are, then so be it. We can only pray for the President's success!

ouch! you are hot! Even USA God's own country parades rogue politicians especially republicans who gave Obama hell n nearly costd him his second term because he held I'm for everybody, for nobody's mentality. Buhari who survived an assassination attempt last year by this same clique who is afraid of their shadows, and they wont stop until cutailed, should be more careful how he handles our mandate, yes our mandate.

BackDatAssUp:
He has vision but did not see Saraki and the north out smarting him.

only God is omnipresent! but Tinubu has more foresight than these hawks; time n events have proven so.

omenka:
I was patiently waiting for someone to write this and I wasn't disappointed.

You know, the only way some people would come to terms with the fact no one sabotaged Jonathan's efforts is if Buhari as well fails woefully. Otherwise, if he succeeds in any area, especially electricity and security, they'd say APC were the people behind the ex-President's failure, and now they are in control, they've "called their boys to order".

What can I say?? We just have to live with you guys.

Let us even admit this saTanoid blatant lie from hell as truth, then it shows that GEJ wasn't fit to be president if he couldn't use the enormous power we Nigerians had submitted to him through d ballot to handle the different security issues in the country.

omenka:
So you know the circumstances surrounding their presidency is are different, so why do you guys keep insisting he announces his cabinet in record time even when the circumstances in this regard favoured Jonathan? Why did it take him 6weeks to "update" his cabinet??

Omenka dear please ask them saTanoids again n again why did he take GEJ six weeks to rejig his cabinet? why? why?why? n if they can't answer, they should keep shot 4eva!

hmmmmm.

warripekin:
His lies are legion. Nairaland will not contain his lies, so no need.

It seems U are d liar if not, mention them!

warripekin:
U accused Barca of lies then what can u say of ur liar in chief, lying Mohammed?
Sure the clown ubima must go to jail for embezzlement. His files are compiled presently.

please mention some lies by Lai Mohammed you know.

warripekin:
U can imagine the pain from this child of anger. Why una they vex.


Meanwhile Amaechi the clown of ubima must go to jail

no pain bro, we are just being plain n if Amaechi is guilty of any offence let d law take its course ; if not saTanoids like ll be brokenhearted!

omenka:
Baba you get mouth no be small.
I'm humbled. Thanks.

lolz!

omenka:
Okay. Just chill. I'd talk to "my people" sir.

As long as bacarnista post lies n try to sell it to the public as truth,we ain't gona spare him. Never!

omenka:
"Baby"?? Nor be man you be

Yea! when emotions take over you n u trip for d excellence , intelligence or any fine quality that the other person displays they can look beautifully handsome to you, hence the metaphor ' baby'. shey u understand? I be man in n out bro. I'm just colotriping at how beautiful you have presented PMB's achievements within 10 days to the consternation n dissapointment of badbelle saTanoids!

yea chieftaincy title as giver of water or something, about a decade ago. but I didn't see were it was mentioned they went to same school. Nice pics .
