High time for a black Pope

This will prove inclusion and recognition of the black Catholic Community, who have paid their dues for hundreds of years to the Catholic system


May the dead one find peace

I share your sentiment but I can assure that if that happens the organisation will lose nothing less than 70% of its members instantly and possibly birthing another similar organisation

I have always held the opinion that there is nothing like platonic (bestie) friend at least from a man's point of view. You will never know until another guy comes into the equation then you will realise you have loved all the while.
But I had a true platonic relationship during my NYSC days it was only possible because I was intentional and we saw once a week at our CDS weekly activities that was over 15 years ago.

Hey! Before your itching fingers get to the keyboard just know that I am a catholic too.

Abeg how do club owners make money after huge spending? I'm really curious I want to know.

Bro, if u have the means fly ur mum abroad for proper care. Our hospitals are wacks and the scanty doctors care less.

Guy you are absolutely right my experiences in LUTH on two different occasions when I accompanied close relatives to that hospital made me realised once a patient walks into LUTH he or she becomes a practical specimen for teaching medical students empathy is not in their dictionary.
So if you have the means take your relative to anywhere he or she will receive urgent attention.

Numerouno94:
I like ur words of wisdom. I was just pissed off as regards the killing, genocide, ethnic cleansing etcetera lately around the North and Middle Bet which the so called Arewa youths have all kept mute but found their voices in a mundane issue like that of VDM.

You are correct we all feel the same way no southerner is happy happy about the double standard of the Nigeria government. Two recent examples:
One person's death sentence was just upheld by the supreme court for killing a fulani herdsman who attacked him in his farm in self defence the court held that he ought to have ran away instead of engaging in a fight with his attacker. The other one is the Benue man who was arrested by the police after numerous cattle that grazed in his farm died he is being accused of spraying his crops with poisonous chemicals.
So my brother we are all angry but at the same time we should not stoke violence with our words on the internet because any small thing can trigger violence riot in the north.

Stolen:
THE SULTAN LEFT FULANI TO CALL SOCIAL MEDIA TERRORIST.


IS IT SOCIAL MEDIA RAPING AND KILLING PEOPLE?



BURNING DOWN A WHOLE VILLAGE OF PEOPLE, INCLUDING BABIES AND PREGNANT WOMEN.

Very uncultured and evidence poor parenting.

Numerouno94:
Thunder fire una and una useless Sultan.

No na! The sultan is not infallible I'm sure the right word didn't come to him to drive home his point at that very moment he was speaking.
The sultan is very revered and should be respected there are other ways to correct him or make your own contrary opinion without insulting him. I couldn't watch VDM's video halfway because I couldn't stomach it and I think he should apologise if truly he made that video because these days anything is possible.

Ruke1991:
All those kings you mentioned are powerful in your eye because they are connected to your tribe or because you are limited in knowledge. Their level of influence is local to their domain. For a full list of high ranking kings to boost your knowledge beyond your local culture, look at the list below. These kings have influence over separately different domains

SOUTH SOUTH
1) Oba of Benin
2) The Orodje of Okpe
3) Asaba of Asaba
4) Olu of Itsekiri
4) Obong of Ibom
5) Amanyanaboh of Opobo
6) Obong of Calabar
7) Ovie of ughelli
Dein of agbor

SOUTH WEST
1) ooni of ife
2) Alafin of Oyo
3) Soun of Ogbomosho
4) Oba of Lagos
5) Ewi of Ado
6) Deji of Akure

SOUTH EAST
1) Obi of Onitsha

NORTH WEST
1) Emir of Sokoto
2) Aku okar of wukari
3) Emir of jalingo

NORTH CENTRAL
1) Emir of Ilorin
2) Ohinohyl of Ebiraland
3) Tor Tiv
4) Attah of Igala

NORTH WEST
1) Lamido Adamawa
2) Shehu of Borno
3) Mai Kanuri

Speak for your culture if you are not knowledgeable about more popular kings outside your culture. There is no such thing as one king being more superior to another simply because they are from a large ethnic group. That doesn't make them powerful

You try but and a very big BUT let me just add to Norh - central and southeast
North - central: you shouldn't omit Etsu Nupe and for southeast Eze Nri comes first.

Cmanforall:
Why?
Is she into cybercrime?

It will be shocking if true. The money her father is making should be satisfying for her

The cybercrime in this case does not involve money it's a case of relationship gone bad and instead of her moving on with her life she and her friends decided to spread falsehood about the man on their social media platforms thereby causing the man embarrassment and emotional damages.

He will remove the stew once it's done, and continue with the rice.

How will he possibly do that with affecting the rice or anything in the other part.
I think it's a foolish idea besides the foods will take longer time to cook because of the small surface area he should think of producing pots that cook foods faster thereby saving gas and time.

relaxfun:
A little back story.

Due to some ugly circumstances, i dropped out of school in 2019 and I've been at home since then, periodically picking up one or two low paying jobs. 2 years ago, I decided to learning a tech skill. I taught myself C++ programming language and I'm currently teaching myself mathematics aggressively, studying for min of 8 hours daily.

For the past two years, I've mostly always been in my room, I can be in our house for more than two weeks, without stepping a foot out of our door due to how engrossed in studying I always am. My goal is to learn C++, DSA , And Math to an undergraduate level then use my skills to apply for scholarships to study abroad, and probably work in a hedge fund company as a quantitative trader in the future. For those who know what leetcode is, i can currently solve most leetcode (hard) problems in less than 40 minutes.

Now, I'll be 24 in August, and my dad is worried that I'm wasting my life away because I've refused to pickup any real job or learn a trade, his worried that I'm already getting old, always reminding me that people my age are already getting married. Now he wants me to leave his house to go look for my own place to stay, and has offered me 7 million naira to go start life else where.

Now I plan to move out of Lagos to PH or Akwa Ibom, then use part of the money to start up a computer business center, where I'll be doing typing, printing, lamination, jamb registration, GCE/WAEC registrations, etc. One of the reasons I chose this is because I've worked in a place like this before and I have experience in how to run such a place. Another reason is that, this business would give me time to also study and sharpen my Math/Programming skills. I plan to rent a shop that is big enough so that I can also be sleeping/living there.

Now I seriously need advicing because this is such a turning point in my life and the next few years is going to make or break me because there is no room for any disastrous bad decision

I am genuinely worried for you honestly because you in the past two years you haven't had much interaction with the real world so this lamentation of inflation and bad economy may not make sense to you. The new location you intend to move to have you lived there before? What's the cost of living there? What's the light situation there and what is the NEPA billing like there because the business you intend to go into requires light will you be buying fuel daily? Pls don't rush and it will be better to start small then scale up in future because 7 million might seem big but when you enter market you will be shocked so don't rush things and be mindful of those who will come around in the name of help.
Lastly you have to be very prayerful the envy and jealousy out there is massive both from competitors and and non competitors it seems people don't like others progress.

FreeSpirited:
You will never understand what it means to fall into grave sexual temptation until you start living a sexually pure life or until you decide to work for God.
.
I'm not yet a pastor in full time ministry but I can tell you the truth based on series of temptation I get these days, the work of a pastor is one of the hardest when it comes to standing against sexual temptation.
Yesterday I also perfectly understood why pastors fall for married women or ladies whose marriage or relationship is in crises during counseling.
.
The truth is counselling a heart broken woman is a big trap. A big trap that can only take God and courage to not fall into. You will be shocked that the person you are counseling is so vulnerable and sexually primed that the greatest emotions flowing through her at that time is a urge to be touched, cuddled, caressed and knacked. I saw everything last night, and my defence began to crack, wane, weakened and almost dissolved completely while the lady was begging time for me to touch her.
.
It was yesterday I realized that deciding to live a holy life or deciding to be a pastor means that you have only signed yourself into continuous sexual temptation. No wonder most pastors fail! I thought I had won the demon of temptation until I experienced the dimension of counseling a broken married lady.
.
I won't go into the story. It's a long crazy one. But pastors will understand what I'm saying .... And if you have not counselled a heartbroken woman either married or single... You can never understand. How I escaped without crashing totally is a mystery.

Two simple but not easy ways to escape:
1. Fasting. Fasting helps you subdue the flesh and any Christian who is not fasting often (at least two days a week) will fall easily.
2. Counsel in an open space or have at least one person with you as assistant.

Israel doesn’t forgive

Very funny!! If a snake creeps into a compound and probably attacked the domestic animals in the compound if the house owner is responsible it is expected that he hunt down the snake no matter how long it takes otherwise it will strike again and again..
Unlike one useless west Africa country that pardons and recruits radical terrorists into her army in the name of repentance thereby demoralizing the soldiers whose comrades were killed by the same terrorists.

AGManuel:
Hello House, please help I need advice.

I have a girlfriend who's been with me for 2 years, she's a very good girl, respects me to the core, she is beautiful and has no faults, she loves me so much and has also suffered with me even when there was no money and we've been through it all, she's every man's dream and a complete wife material in terms of character and also a great chef.

Problem is I am not sexually attracted to her, I can be in same room with her for a week and not touch her, even when she's totally naked running around the house.

I'm only attracted to light skin girls with big ass but she's chocolate and average ass, I don't want a sexually boring marriage.

She's good in bed and knows how to make love, but I just don't feel sexually attracted to her, is it because we've been having sex for 2 years? am I tired of her? I don't even know, she has never insulted me, she supports me and we hardly have disputes.

Married men in the house should I go ahead and marry her? Can lack of sexual attraction to your spouse be a big problem?

I don't want to break up with a good woman just because of sex.

She loves me so much and I know breaking up with her will hurt her so much, I know how much she cries anytime we have issues, most times over minor issues. I love her too. But this sexual attraction thing is a problem.

She no de hungry me to fvck at all. How person wan take marry woman wey no de hungry am to fvck.

Is it see finish? Will I get sexually attracted to her if we give each other space? Or is it because she's not my spec physically? But I love her so much and I'm just confused.

I don't even know if it's love, because she has no one, I'm her everything, her family is poor and I always feel pity for her whenever I want to break up.

Of recent we had issues and she went to discuss it with her ex and that made me so angry. I don't tolerate women that still keep in touch with their ex and I considered breaking up but she cried so much and was apologising, she even fell sick and was begging.

I have a soft spot for her because I know she doesn't have anything or anyone, I'm the person that supports her financially and everything, so whenever I want to break up, I think about those things and I feel so much pity for her like if I chase her away where will she go? and this is a girl that has been there for me few times when I was low.

I'm just confused.

Sex is the least thing in marriage though very important but those qualities you attributed to her are actually more important in marriage. My advice to you why entangle yourself with a woman who doesn't have the physical qualities you want in the first place? After 2 years you are yet to wholly accept her the way she is. Now you want to leave without breaking her heart well you can use genotype or be man enough and talk things out with her to avoid wasting her time any further.
But note that no matter who you marry there shall come a time sex will be obligation rather than pleasure.

She may have grown up surrounded by love and care, but now it seems like Natasha has forgotten those values, choosing to break laws and stir up chaos.

This kind of statement only emanates from shameless people. Do you think it's easy for a woman to come out publicly to say she is being harassed sexually essentially in a country like ours with people like you?
There is no smoke without fire.

neolboy:
This is my life story
I am sharing my experience here about marriage life, some of you might call me a Simp or weakling but need to share it for those who asked me to share it when I write on a topic about what i regretted so far in 2025, was getting married last year December and ending it this Year January will pick one or two things from my story.

I met this girl 2023 through a mutual friend, we became an acquaintance and later start dating. She is from Delta state likewise myself, she comes from Ndokwa west specifically Kwale by tribe. In 2024 i proposed to her, by May I went to see her family while she came to meet mine also.

Early September i asked her family for the traditional list. We both agreed for traditional marriage and court wedding, After collecting the list we start planning towards the traditional marriage which was fixed on December 29 on a Sunday afternoon. That faithful day, i went with my people to pay the bride price and other things, and the court wedding was fixed on January 17.

January 7th, we were together discussing but something strange happened, her phone rang and i saw her going outside to answer some calls, after sometimes she came back inside not composed. I asked her what the problem was but she downplayed it and told me it was nothing, but i was not comfortable, after a while her phone rang again, it was her brother's wife calling her and asking her if she has told me about the pregnancy. I was shocked and asked her what pregnancy is she talking about.

Here comes the shock of my life, i discovered that she was some weeks pregnant, I asked her who got her pregnant, to my surprise, it was her ex boyfriend. I was enraged, mad and furious, something was whispering into my ear to go into the kitchen take a knife and stab her. Luckily for me, my younger sister called me at that moment, if not i don't know what i would have done to her. Because it was late i left the house for her.

In the morning, i came back, she was already in tears crying and asking me for forgiveness. I told her to leave my house, I picked up my phone call all her family members, called mine also.
Her family were trying to persuade me to forgive her but i told them it was unforgivable. My family asked for the refund of the bride price which was later refunded after they discovered that i did not bulge to their request of accepting her back.

It was a painful moment and a painful experience too, but i was able to pull through by the help of my family members some friends.

It was a long story i had to cut it short. It is my life story

Moral lesson: Do pregnancy test even on the day you are to tie the knot, do not trust to the extent of ignoring little things.

Extra: The guy who got her pregnant was aware and even told the girl's sister that his property with them he is coming in future to collect it. Na so I for dey look after another man's property

Who dare call you a simp? My brother na man u be. I commend you for standing firm and not accepting her family begging you to forgive her.
