oz4real83:
How all these dukes of small villages give themselves big titles keeps surprising me, Iwo is a very small place and the olowu gave himself the title of "imperial majesty"😏. Somebody without an empire will be bearing "imperial majesty"😏
Lmao 😂

He was a Shiite not a Muslim. Their religious practices vary from those of the Sunni.
Shiite Muslim you meant to say. It’s still Islam

Isn’t Khoemini a Muslim ? This one they’re parading his body upandan? Is religion different for the ruling class ?

She clearly want to cut her ear specifically and the poor girl was able to use her hands to block that. Resist the urge to defend nonsense.
I see comments trying to rationalise what the woman did and my blood boils because how can anyone justify this wicked act.

OGOLMEKZ95:
In my view, the woman didn't really mean any harm. During my childhood, our mother used to threaten to cut off our ears because we 'didn't hear' (didn't listen) those days. Making the same mistakes countless times would trigger her to threaten to cut off the 'deaf ear' instead 😁. That’s exactly what this video depicts, in my own perception. She didn't even beat the girl at all in the vid.
Omo you guys are mentally deranged o

Think about it this way, someone came to rob you with a gun (but that person never intended to use) will it minimise the terror and fear the gun brandished at you caused you?

Did your mother ever over power and physically hit you with a knife like she did in that video ? Please if you are a woman don’t get a maid.

Bishop4bella:
What the woman did was wrong but watching this video, the woman has no intention of hurting her with knife if not, she has overpowered the lady and she can easily use the knife on her.

God saved both of them
If you know how much time she’ll spend in prison for this alone if convicted you’ll not say this.

Samantha125:
Trying to use fear to impose your colonial belief on me won't work... What you're doing is no different from what those your Boko Haram and Fulani brothers of yours are doing to you guys in Northern Nigeria.

I was once a full blown Christian and the more I got involved in the church, the more I started seeing things for what they really were... I saw hell on earth, if members didn't do enough evangelism throughout the month, they'd get whipped with a belt by our senior pastor, we'd each be allocated the amount of offering that we're expected to give as members depending on our family backgrounds, and almost everyone was fornicating in that church because apparently "the founding pastor didn't mind"... So I did give Christianity a chance, but I unfortunately ended up in deep depression and became suicidal, it took the work of a therapist to get me back into my senses... And this is one of the biggest churches in Africa.
Sorry for your experience but that’s not a church rather you were in a cult. Google Charles Manson you’d see similarities between him and your former cult leader
Family › Re: Mention The Type Of Family You Will Never Marry From by BarrElChapo(m): 3:30pm On Jul 05
Traditionalists. My last girlfriend said her mother was a traditional herbalist (yes it raised some eyebrows for me) but when I found out that she used to do charms for yahoo boys for them to pick. I knew that I would never end up with the lady in question.

So any family that’s big on traditional practices especially if the claim to be Christians as in the case of my ex is a no no no.

Any family also that’s big on ministry this, prophet that, soothe sayer this. Once the girl starts telling me that I know that I can never have anything to do with you.

Family › Re: Relationship Dilemma by BarrElChapo(m): 1:07pm On Jul 04
Gentlesoul2021:
Good day N'Lander

I need genuine opinions on a relationship dilemma.

My younger sister is 31 years old. She's highly educated with a master's degree, works with an NGO as a Programme Coordinator and Mental Health Counselor, and is also a skilled fashion designer with equipment worth over ₦2 million. She's hardworking, focused, and has consistently supported our family. Her job has taken her across different states, exposing her to diverse experiences and opportunities. Above all, she's deeply committed to her Christian faith.

She recently met a fellow church brother who has expressed serious interest in marrying her. However, he left school after Primary Six and works as a traditional window louvre fabricator. While there's absolutely nothing wrong with learning a trade, he has had opportunities to upgrade his skills to modern aluminium fabrication but hasn't pursued them. Instead, he seems more interested in becoming a pastor or working in a church, though he currently has no clear or realistic path to achieving that.

Another concern is the family dynamic. My mother and the young man's mother serve in the same church unit. On several occasions, whenever he goes out for a job, his mother would call him back or redirect him for other errands, and she would even mention these things to my mother. This has given us the impression that she relies heavily on him, raising concerns about the level of responsibility he already carries within his family and how that might affect his future marriage.

My mother strongly opposes the relationship, believing the gap in education, career progression, ambition, life direction, and even family expectations is too significant. I understand her concerns and tend to agree, but it also raises an important question.

Can love alone sustain a marriage when there's such a wide difference in education, ambition, exposure, career growth, and family responsibilities? Or should long-term compatibility, shared vision, emotional maturity, and the ability to build a stable future together carry more weight than love?

I'd genuinely appreciate respectful and honest opinions from both married and unmarried people. Please keep the discussion civil and objective—this isn't about looking down on anyone because of their educational background or occupation, but about understanding what truly makes a marriage work in the long run.
What does your sister think ? I don’t want to judge anyone but with your sisters experience, she should have a minimum expectation of the kind of man she wants to settle down with.

Is the young man in question that minimum? If yes good for her, if not it shouldn’t even be a conservation.
