When the world starts blocking US products, na then they go know say no be only them dey block.

They blocking Chinese products because they perform better than theirs.

Australia has also banned TikTok. The Chinese are using it to hack into phones of Americans and steal their private data including bank and other personal information.

I am the first child of my mother, and I have two younger male siblings. I am doing well financially. My wife is the last of four children in her family. My dad died when I was still in the university, and this affected my mum.

However, as she aged, her health waned. She was a retired teacher. My brothers are not in the country. Both of them are in Europe. I wanted to have my mother stay with me in her later years because of her health and loneliness but my wife did not want it.

Whenever she was ill and I brought her home to be with us, my wife was usually hostile, especially if my mum had stayed beyond a week. She did not hid her disapproval, and this caused problems in the marriage. People advised that I should send my mum away and pay someone to live with her and take care of her. They said that marriage was between a man and his wife, not between a man, his wife, and his mother. I did and peace returned. Eventually my mum passed on after a few years.

Along the line, my father in law also died. And down the line, my mother in law's health began to deteriorate. We live in the same town. Among my wife's siblings she is the only one doing quite well. Now there are suggestions that the mother should come and live with us so that my wife can give her proper care. I believe that her living with us and seeing her grandchildren will help her. And indeed i have no problem accepting her, but when i remember the treatment my wife gave to my mum, there is a strong revulsion, in fact, anger in me. I shared with a friend, and he advised i forgive my wife, but the revulsion is so strong that i would feel cheated if i agreed.

What do you guys think. She reminded me then that marriage was between a man and his wife only. Shouldn't this also apply to my wife now?

You must nip this your wife’s bad behavior in the bud, because tomorrow might be too late. She is selfish & lacks empathy. She didn’t consider your mother as the woman who caused her to have a husband. In my country we say that if you love a cow, you must love the rope that’s tied to the cow as well. It’s an inconvenience to her to take care of your mother, but suddenly becomes convenient when the same applies to her family. You need to stand up as a man. With that behavior she showed, God forbid if someone from your family needs help in the future, she’ll oppose and you won’t be able to stop it. Teach her a lesson now, so that she can learn to live and tolerate other people.She should also hire a caregiver for her mother. Nonsense!

Yes I have experienced many scammers tried to false help and claim your money , from other social media platforms but I'm vigilant and careful not to fall into their hands

What of Aunts, Uncles or grandparents? Are you close? Try befriend them and spoil them with good things if you can. Speak to them as an adult, let them know you are in an identity crisis. There’s a missing piece in the puzzle that needs to be filled. Let them understand that knowing your roots will bring healing & closure. Whatever happened between your parents, you just happen to be an innocent scapegoat for your mom. If they can give you more details, it would be helpful. I believe the whole suicide talk from your mom is just blackmail. Threaten to cut her off if she doesn’t disclose to you who your dad is & see if that will help. Reality though is that you don’t actually do it, but just issue some threats.

Too simple for my liking. Even though they didn’t want to spend, Atleast some nice clothes , well done hair & a few refreshments would have made it more memorable and then go out there & take pictures. It’s their wedding their way though, to each his own.

I am going to be honest here,I had sex with my girlfriend before traveling, and now my penis is removing milky liquid, and also it pains me sometimes when I want to urinate.

What medicine can I take please.
Help me with the perfect drug name.

You need to go to hospital and give some sample to the lab for testing. Don’t self-medicate because you are not sure at this point what you are suffering from. Some conditions if left untreated, could affect your fertility. Leave Nairaland & go for proper medical checkup.

I just discovered the shock of my life. My friend is about to get married in a month’s time to this wealthy fine man, she's a few weeks pregnant and looks pretty happy.

Last week, I was with her and her fiancee came around, it was all fun and we took several pictures and I needed to get them so the guy just handed me his phone to send the pictures to my phone.

They are a very clingy couple and they left to the bedroom to go do their thing, maybe to keep me company or maybe he forgot or for whatever reason, but he didn't get his phone. I was done with the transfer and was just going through his photos randomly, I saw a folder and there are pictures and videos of him doing sexual things with different female corpses. I was so terrified, I returned the phone to home Page, cleared the recently used apps and I left immediately, I have not been in contact with my friend for days now, she keeps calling, I can't bring myself to speak to her.

But I feel guilty and angry, angry that he would do such and even record them and keep them, guilty that I am letting my best friend into a trap of a marriage.

What do I do in this case? I'm so confused and worried.

Did you send some of the pictures to your phone?

247Hustler:
So, I figured out that I cannot change the email address on the account because of Nairaland issues. Alternatively, you could drop a dummy mail so I can reach out there.

You can’t . Was looking to change mine also, so not sure why they even suggest that option when they know it doesn’t work.

247Hustler:
That's strange. I just forwarded it again. Please check and let me know.

Imagine it hasn’t come through 🤔Not even in the spam folder. Actually when I messaged you, I got a strange response from NL, so wasn’t sure the email got to you.

247Hustler:
Can you at least check you email?

No email from you.

247Hustler:
Hello, I replied the same day.

Your response was to message you on Nairaland.

247Hustler:
You can send me a message on nairaland.

Hey there, did you ever get my message?

Elon Musk is a dumb tool! He is lucky his father is super-rich to bail him out whenever he messes up financially. Twitter he bought for 44 billion is not even worth 2 billion. And he is suppose to be some kind of genius. No be only genius, na guiness.

He has no relationship with his father. He severed the ties.Big bully though. People keep leaving Twitter but he thinks money is everything & so disrespects people as will.

UK: a country where the systems and institutions are bigger than any individual.

Ekweremadu’s case would have long died if it were to be in Nigeria.

The Police and DSS would have incarcerated that boy.

Though not a Nigerian, am a bit hesitant believing the young man’s version of events. He explained when the case was new, that someone had introduced him to the family & they organized the processing of his travel documents. He’s not a child. Among all the people in Nigeria, why was he picked? They must have had a deal, but someone advised the guy to act dumb & cry crocodile tears, in order to gain the UK government sympathy and be granted asylum. If indeed this family is guilty, then I’d say their cup is full. Let them pay for the evil committed .If the young guy is lying against them, I pray that in due to time, he’ll get to deal with the consequences of his actions.

Femich18:

I'm not a Catholic but I just love those 2 hymns. I do play "To God Be the Glory" over 10times a week.
I just love the Hymn. Its a Means of thanking God for things he Has done in my life

Actually hymns are sang mostly by the old protestant churches Eg Presbyterians, Anglicans, Methodist etc. Catholic hymns are such as Ave Maria & others with tunes that are uniquely Catholic. If you hear them sing the popular hymns, it’s just in the spirit of unity, but usually borrowed from the Protestant groups.

Frank25:
Let's gather and discuss

Mine: stand up, stand up for jesus
On christ the solid rock i stand

Those hymns soothes for soul.

My love for hymns knows no bounds.
1. Down at the cross where my savior died
2. When the roll is called up yonder
3. Master speak thy servant heareth
4. We have an anchor that keeps the soul
5. There is a fountain filled with blood.

Women are the major problem of the world. The world would have been peaceful without women.

God and Adam were paddy until Eve came. Ponder on that.

LOL does that include your mom?

incandescentena:
If she wasn't gonna keep the baby why leave it for nine months?! Some youths have lost it, because their parents never gave them good upbringing in the society

No values! No morals!!

The parents failed.
The community failed.

We have a saying where I come from that anyone still in the child-bearing age should not point fingers at other people’s children. That’s because you don’t know how yours will turn out. You can be the best parent in the world, but somehow your children will fail you. You cannot monitor them 24/7. After giving them advice, one can only leave it in God’s hands. While some parents are negligent, it doesn’t apply to all. You can only play your role as a parent and hope the children listen.

Uncle sam go do him own. If that same country now do their own uncle sam go dey cry like baby. Hypocritical America.

China is lying. Americans have never violated Chinese airspace. Asked to provide dates & times, they cannot provide evidence. Asked about other balloons seen flying, they have no comment.China has been stealing intelligence from NATO countries. Didn’t they find another ballon in Canada? The ballon they claim is a weather ballon, was equipped with signals to collect intelligence. 4 ballon’s in a week. Some of you act like you’ve not seen the arrogance displayed by the Chinese in Africa. They sure have been stepping on many toes.

Road2Success:
That's our plan for now. Because once my wife is pregnant cat will turn our window to crying zone. Normally, I don't attached any meaning to this things. But I don't know if there is any meaning to it.


You can send your wife to her parents house when she is close to labor. Just to know where the problem is coming from.

Bro please tell me you are joking. So this cat shows up only when she’s pregnant?The devil is a liar! I grew up in a part of Kenya where I never witnessed witchcraft or diabolical events. However as I continued to mature spiritually, I’ve come to realize that the spirit world is real. That’s why Jesus cast out evil spirits. With that said, you need to increase your prayer momentum. You said you are not religious but, you need to pray even if it’s The Lord’s Prayer. Does the landlord’s behavior that you explained look normal to you? People will be occupying someone’s property . They use water & electricity yet, the owner is okay with rent not being paid for 2 years? Spiritual matters are solved spiritually. I tell you if you walk closely with God, you don’t even have to know someone is diabolical. You’ll be very uneasy and restless in that environment around them. Learn how to break strongholds and to command demons out. Tell principalities and powers of darkness that they are under your feet. Begin to bind and lose. Better still, start blasting worship music day & night. Likes of Dunsin Oyekan, Victoria Orenze, Nathaniel Bassey etc. Sometimes put on prayers by the likes of Pastor Jerry Eze, Apostle Joshua Selman & Archbishop Duncan Williams. Do that for a while and see if your landlord will start to appear agitated. Look out for an increase in attacks. Meanwhile, be looking for a new place to move to. When it comes to warfare, we don’t play games. Where I come from, we have a saying that an arrow shot in the night, is sent back in the night. Wake up!!!!

The beginning

As the title reads, this is a personal account of my struggle in the last 20+ years. I hope this motivates someone to keep faith in the face of daunting challenges.

I am the youngest in a family of three, raised by a single mother. I am the only son and the first and only college-educated among my siblings. My parents divorced when I was two years old, and my mother took up the responsibility of raising us. Unfortunately, she passed away in 2003 when I was in the first year of junior high school, at the age of 12. This marked the beginning of my struggles.

Due to my mother’s death, I had to grow up quickly so I could take care of my basic needs with the help of my grandmother. And in the same year (2003), my sister and I were taken to stay with my maternal aunt to continue our studies, but we had to leave in 2007 when we were in SS2 due to maltreatment from my aunt. For survival, I became a motor boy, following pick-up trucks to load and unload firewood, charcoal, and other woods used in making furniture. The job was very stressful, causing me to often miss classes due to vehicle issues or problems with the police. I did this job for over two years before quitting after my high school graduation. I also worked as an operator, mixer, and carrier in a brick manufacturing company for a few months.



Seun, Justwise, DisGuy, Fynestboi and other moderators, please help move to the front page so others may benefit from this.

Hey how are you? Thanks so much for this piece. Very encouraging. So much perseverance & resilience. Currently in the US. Looking to get some advice from you on how to go about online jobs. Sometimes people don’t like inbox messages, that’s why I’ve decided to message you here. Thanks.

mumu. China already destroyed ant American military in the past. Slaughtering them for fun in the Korean war. Killed them so much and chased them all over Asia headless

Must you use insults to pass your message? Besides it’s like you are beating drums of war as if you’d want it to happen. When two bulls fight, the grass suffers. We felt the heat with Russia & Ukraine with oil prices escalating. I don’t know why anyone would wish war to prove what country has best military capability.

After all data have been collected and sent to Beijing. Americans are clowns. The overhyped US. Tranny military won't last 30mins in a war with China.

Ohh a war with China won’t last 30 minutes? Since your Chinese are so confident in their skills , why are they constantly trying to steal intelligence info from other countries? They are just troublemakers and the US is in no competition with them.

Antiochus:
China said it was a baloon that monitors weather that strayed into U.S. There are other ways of spying out a country from the outer space with powerful satellites a capability China and other world powers possess. I'll wait for U.S to retrieve the baloon and satellite attached to it and analyse to know if it was a spy satellite.

Do you know a 2nd ballon from China was flying over Latin America? When asked if that too was monitoring the weather, they didn’t respond.

StPete:
This story is definitely one-sided and looks like something concocted to paint the guy in bad light. The most probable thing I see from the marriage might be that the lady married the guy because she thought he had money. The family of the girl was also drawn to the guy because they thought he had money


Lemme wait to hear from the guy because this story is embellished to draw pity toward the girl

Whether she married him for money or not is irrelevant. So many have married for money, so she isn’t the first or last. However, there’s absolutely no good enough reason, a husband should beat his wife. If he’s tired of her, her parents , siblings and friends still need her.
