So when Europe discovered America, discovered india and Africa she wasn't already advanced? When last did you read anything outside Nairaland?
You missed your history, geography and quantitative reasoning classes and it's not too late to enrol for a crash course in them.
Britain birthed the industrial revolution in 1750 and that' was what drove Europe all over the world founding colonies. And we will like to hear from you the advancements of sub Sahara Africa in 1750.
Recognising when one is fuulish is the first step to intellectual healing
But when yowr ignorance is bold and reasoning is dampened there's no hope except by divine intervention.
Buti will wait until you're able to read and write properly and you will embarrassingly come back and delete your mark of ig.no.rance you left here as a digital footprot for your unborn.
The New York Times, A fake news liberal outlet and mouthpiece for homosexuality is an anti-Trump propaganda outlet masquerading as a professional news outlook.
If Trump prefers white immigrants, then so be it. No country would and should encourage their own country to be overrun by a different culture
Kemadealadire: And what makes you think she was sleeping with those men while the relationship with them lasted Na wa oh, since when did relationship equal sexship.
when you grow up to reality and out of hypocrisy, I will respond.
women don't know how used up and damaged they appear when they tell stories like this.
And how low they bring their husband making the whole world know he wasn't even her 4th choice and he married a serial leftover who has been knacked and rejected by several men
You would think a gospel singer would know this but a woman who has tasted fame is a woman loyal to and under no man.
sreamsense: I wonder who in his right senses will go out to protest for the release of a terrorist. They never protest for the right of those Igbo virgins ipob/ESN established by kanu used for ritual for charms. They never protested for the right of those Igbos killed and cannibalized in their bush camps. They never protested for those EZes, rich and poor that were tagged saboteurs, killed and paraded their heads in public square.Many tricycle, motor, motorcycle that were forcefully hijacked from Igbos and took away their lifelihood. DSS should arrest all of them protesting release of kanu
These liberal boundless paper tigers who are terrorist enablers and globalist and liberal ho-mo-sexual encouragers are now the weeping boys of the once proud Western civilization.
breadtoaster: Please, those of you who are married — how do you cope?
I am married to someone I don’t think is my friend. We dated before marriage, but during that time, I had a very senior friend whom I always went to for advice, help with decisions, and assistance with things that required initiative or “manly” effort.
My husband, on the other hand, is very quiet. Living with him feels like living in a graveyard — no TV, no outings, nothing lively. It’s not that he isn’t intelligent (trust me, he is), but he’s too lazy to put his mind to work sometimes. By 9 p.m., he’s already asleep. He eats, goes to work, and that’s all. He has no drive for more. Whenever I talk about progress or goals, he says, “It’s a process; it’ll take years to come to fruition,” but he never thinks of ways to get things done efficiently or on time.
So in terms of ambition or drive for achievement, I’m suffering living with him. I feel alone. I’m scared that his lack of motivation and his slow, passive lifestyle will kill my own drive. I’m not even extremely driven myself, but I know I want to achieve greatness. That desire pushes me, but I’m afraid that living with him will make me too relaxed and unmotivated — and I don’t want that.
Before marriage, I had friends — both male and female — with whom I shared advice and ideas. I’ve always had male friends because they tend to be driven. From them, I learned about crypto, stocks, business ideas — they inspired me. But my husband doesn’t trust them or me around them. Since we got married, I can’t talk to most of these friends at home unless I’m at work. It’s affecting me mentally. I’m scared that my circle for growth and greatness is being trimmed down, and soon I might start behaving like him — with no ambition or hunger for achievement.
Women, how do you handle such relationship dynamics? How do I keep my drive while being married to such a man?
Every Friday night, he’s already asleep. One time, I dragged him to a lounge on a Friday night, and he was dozing off there. I ended up dancing alone while other couples danced together. If there’s something important we’re supposed to do, he won’t take initiative or push for it.
For example, I suggested we start going to church regularly to build our spiritual life. One Sunday, he woke up first and went to bathe. When he finished, he didn’t wake me up, and by the time I opened my eyes, it was already late. When I asked why he didn’t tell me, he said he called me but I didn’t answer. For me, I wouldn’t act that way — especially when it’s something that helps build our faith together.
We also planned to pray as a family. We did it for two days, and then he forgot — and honestly, I’m struggling to remember too. I don’t know if our marriage is under spiritual attack or if it’s just his personality, but my mental health is suffering. I’m not happy. I don’t genuinely smile anymore.
He doesn’t know how to pamper me or show warmth. If I complain about something, he just lashes out. He didn’t date much before marriage; he was one of those “spiritual brothers.” I was spiritual too, but I thought quiet men were more romantic or deep inside. I was wrong. I feel like he’s choking the life out of me.
At home, I can’t even make calls freely — he gets unknowingly aggressive if I’m on the phone and says things like, “Don’t you have things to do?” So I can’t talk to the people I’d love to.
After our marriage, he had issues going to my family, claiming I blackmailed him because of earlier arguments. He would get upset about small things, like me dancing to Afrobeat music. He’d say I shouldn’t, then later deny he said it. Or if we go out to eat, he’ll say we should leave early or that the place will soon close, even when I just want to relax and enjoy being outside.
I feel alone, yet married. I miss home. I’m not sure what to do.
It even took us one month after the wedding to consummate our marriage. We were both virgins, but his manhood wasn’t functioning well, and we had so many arguments that our emotional connection broke down. I felt it literally fall apart. Now I feel like I’m just living with someone.
He often says, “We’re not aligned,” or that he trusts me only 60%. If I go out, he sometimes gets angry or accuses me of lying about where I went. I can’t stay indoors all day like him — I’d just die inside.
I need help. I feel like I’m losing myself. When I visit home, my mother’s voice feels loud or too much, my friends when i talk to them, it feels like they are talking too much — not because they are talking too much, but because I’ve been living in such silence that I’ve lost touch with voice, morelike in a graveyard.
I am even crying as I type this, and he is sitting somewhere on the other side asking me if my head is swelling or what is making me cry.
I’m just… tired. feeling so strongly emotionally starved tooo.
ever paused to consider the possibility that you could be damaged to the point where you find normal men dull and you mistake peace for boredom.
Seems to me you're coming from a chaotic background with different men and you're used to this tempo these roughnecks brought to your life?
EvergreenDiarie: 🔥 VeryDarkMan don expose Blord again! 😳 This time, he’s calling him out for allegedly selling fake iPhone 17s for ₦450,000, even though the real price (with shipping) is about ₦280,000!
In this shocking new video, VeryDarkMan breaks down how Nigerians are being scammed with counterfeit phones, inflated prices, and fake Apple packaging. He claims Blord has been deceiving fans and customers — using hype and fake luxury to make money off people’s ignorance. 📱💸
Watch as VDM gives full receipts, price comparisons, and unfiltered truth in his usual fearless style. Is Blord really guilty or is this just another social media drama? Let’s find out! 👀
According to Prince Ejeh Josh Peter Mbah isn’t playing with security. Our gallantly trained and energized forest guard has taken over Enugu forests 🌳 🌴 If you see Gov Mbah, thank him. If you see forest guard, appreciate them for making our forest safe again!
paid post. Paid publicity.
Enugu forest guards are traffic wardens. There has been no single documented interception of Fulani or forest incidence by the Enugu forest guards.
pocohantas: Her fear wasn't even the robbery. Because as a woman many things can go wrong when faced with this situation. The scariest being rape...That is what pushed her to make that move.
Mental health support is needed when people think of the very worst needlessly.
But rape coming from you with the pretext of horror and shock is laughable
Goldrosewine: So my friend came around and I just wanted to show her around the yard and our very small veggie garden. Saw this thing on the ground, near perfect camouflage but the slittering movements gave it away.
You need to see the way my friend jumped and screamed.🤦 But all these Nairaland snake killers have been giving me morals lately😋 removed one of the boots (my dad always emphasized on wearing rubber boots when going into our garden) and smashed it with it.
Dada came running out but I had already finished the job. My kid sister tryna downplay my achievement said it's too tiny🤣 But Dada just kept on blushing and said I did a good job cux no snake is too tiny. We burned the demon🔥🔥🫢
Last picture is me, pretty face but I am now a certified snake killer🤣 I dedicate this achievement to falseprophet1
for a female , kudos to you, except you didn't grow up in the village. We expect more from village girls.
Bur what's the need for the picture and self praise of your looks? Attention hungry? Sales enquiries?
Lifestone: We are Africans, show respect to your guests moreso if they are older. Seun of Channel tv asks smarter and more difficult questions than Oseni, but you can never said he was ever rude to his guests
I watched the exchange Rufai didn't insult Umahi.
Rather the minister began the insult and derailment of the show and made a lot of false claims.
I think he got emotional and should have smarter than playing into the hands of Rufai who was just asking tough questions without insults.
Lifestone: Was Oseni not rude with his arrogant posturing? Being an online personality and asking hard questions does not say Rufai should not to be polite to his guests. Seun Osinbaloye's questions are probably tougher. Umahi was already a successful Engineer before Rufai finish secondary school, he was a former Governor and much Older than him. You can ask your questions without arrogance and rudeness. I watch that program and was really piss off at Oseni, I completely agree with how Umahi handled him. Next time, Umahi should send his SA on media to answer Oseni questions. Being an anchor person does not put the two of them at the same level
What is the correlation between age and levels when a public officer appears on radio or TV and he is being asked to inform the public of his activities?
