In politics, there is nothing like permanent friends.

Obasanjo said the money athifku stole from Nigeria can fund Nigeria budget for 2 decades.

Did that stop ipob miscreants from laying their worthless lives for athifku' to be president?
This post speaks volumes about the worth of the poster. By all indication, he's a bitter hater. What a heavy burden he bears.
PoliticsRe: COVID-19: Ugwuanyi Grants Relief, Incentives To Taxpayers by BENARI: 6:40am On Jun 24, 2020
It's glaring Enugu taxpayers money is wasted on propaganda and propagandists. And clearly some of these paid propagandists are Nairalanders.

So unfortunate. But just so you know; your propaganda is becoming more and more embarrassing each day especially to those of us from that region. Please stop the stupidity. Haba!
Ugwuanyi plans a committee, ugwuanyi considers building a hospital in ngwo, Ugwuanyi takes a look at Oji river, Ugwuanyi embark, Ugwuanyi disembark, Ugwuanyi this, Ugwuanyi that. And each time, this paid propaganda makes it to front page. Yet Enugu remains the same Enugu. Nna na waooooh

This is no good news. This huge inflow into mutual funds is the reason tb rate have plummeted. I expect the rate to hit zero soon, and watch people begging businesses(perhaps through the stock market) and anyone with some useful ideas to take and trade with thier money. I believe we are gradually getting there.
RomanceRe: She's One Year Older Than Her Man. Should She Be Worried? by BENARI: 7:46am On Jun 14, 2020
Trayceey:
A friend of mine just opened up to me about her relationship. She said when she met her man, she assumed she was younger than him because he looked so big and more mature than her and he also acts mature than her.

One day, they were discussing their age and she found out she was older, so she had to lie about her age. The relationship went on and the love grew stronger, then a day came, she asked him if he can marry a lady older than him, he said 'never' she asked what if it's just one year? He still said ' never'. Then she asked him that what if he later found out that his girlfriend is older, what would he do? He said he would end the relationship.

She said she couldn't bear it any longer and so she opened up to him about her age. That she's a year older than him. She wants him to know before it's too late. After opening up to him, she was expecting him to end the relationship but he didn't. He's still coming for her, he still loves her and wants to marry her. But she's withdrawing from the relationship because of what the guy said earlier.

Please advise her. I will show her your comments
Age will never be a cause for any problem in a marriage except on this 2 conditions;

1. If she refuses to recognise him as her husband and do what any wife should do for her husband.

2. If they experience fertility issues, the guy might begin to think it's because she too old, irrespective of how young she is. But this second condition will only come about if the guy is halfbaked.

For the woman, If the guy becomes irresponsible in future, she too could attribute it to his being too young for her.

But by and large, it should never be a problem and may never be, if both parties are matured and responsible enough.

Now as for his response, it may or may not be taking seriously. Your friend need not distance him, but instead, she should begin expecting the worst while hoping for the best. If their relationship is meant to lead to marriage, she should begin observing his treatment of thier relationship more closely. Is he still as committed? Does he miss her calls now than before? Does he give excuses for why he can't do things for her or see her? Is he still comfortable showing her to friends and relations? If they were sexually intimate before, is he now more demanding of sex? that could be an indication he's becoming less emotionally involved with her, not always but sometimes.

If the relationship fails however, she can take one thing from it; put all your scorecards on the table abinisio on your next relationship. It saves you time and needless stress. No human is worth the stress of hiding who you really are. It's no crime that you're X or Y years old.

Best wishes to your friend and you.

God bless you for this, that's how they termed me insultive because i have been asking questions. Even @mitchyy refused to answer my questions despite the fact that I didn't use an insultive tone.

@Janosky @1×2×3 and others who I have engaged with, all ran away. That's what they do when they meet someone who knows his onions.

Your post nailed them
Thanks Bro. They are a cult, and I'm out to make sure they don't keep recruiting unsuspecting innocent people into thier dangerous cult.
I'll soon be creating a thread on them, that will expose thier true identity and hidden practices. In the Western world, thier population is shrinking and they are selling thier places of worship in numbers because the awakening movement is gaining momentum. People are waking up to cults like the watchtower organisation and other high control groups.

Let's join hands and alert the public about them in Nigeria. People must stop welcoming them to thier homes because soon they destroy those homes.

Then stay loyal to yours and let us to remain loyal to ours. Is that hard to do? cheesy
My loyalty lies with Jehovah and Jesus not men who keep changing thier doctrines and predictions in the name of new light. The generation of 1914 that will never pass away for example, kept changing and changing, 6 times, all in the name of new light. And when it became obvious they had failed, they came up with another ridiculous new light in the name of "overlapping generation", supporting it with one cherrypicked scripture they found convenient. When this one fails too, they'll come up with another new light, and you'll never stop to think and ask, what in the world is going on.

Before you decide to be loyal to men who claim they were appointed in 1919, when clearly in 1919 it was a one man show by Rutherford, read this scripture, and then reconcile it with all the failed governing body predictions over the years including the famous 1975 besides others. Rd Deuteronomy 18:20-22.

I thought you're trained to endured opposition and persecution. Just a writing word on the internet, you termed it an insult and took to your heels because you have no rebuttal. How will type will never survive the great tribulation when Jws are singled out for thier being the only true religion?
Classic case of a true Jw. Illiterates made literate by a certain theocratic ministry school where they are thought simply to preach thier version of the Goodnews and nothing more. They're never thought to engage in meaningful debate, no, only do the talking to vulnerable people who can be fooled by them; those one they call honest hearted. No wonder they are only able to recruit mostly impoverished and illiterate people in society who in turn are taught to read and right in thier propaganda school. And this is the kind of products they churn out. For heaven's sake, what or where is the insult in the beginning of my response to your lazy invitation for me to come to kingdom hall instead of responding to questions here and make your light shine like Jws always like to brag.
Come to kingdom hall and do what? And sit like a donkey and allow some 8 men from warwick in USA to tell me what is biblical and what is not, and expect unquestioning loyalty from me? God forbid, I'll be loyal to no organisation or group of men but God and Christ.
Christianity EtcRe: Five (5) Misconceptions About Jehovah's Witnesses. by BENARI:
mitchyy:
Jehovah's Witnesses are not in Saturn. Visit our kingdom hall with an open mind, attend and see for yourself, not internet stories. Even Jesus had false stories spread about him. So who are we not to be lied against?

If you were once a Witness who was disfellowshipped for wrongdoing then i understand why you might be bitter. But one thing is for sure... Jehovah's Witnesses DO NOT shield anyone from wrongdoing. If you commit an offence punishable by the law, no one will hide you away from your sin.
Say what you know my friend, not what you don't. I thought you'd ask me to prove every single accusations I made here against the organisation. If you ask, I'll provide more than enough. But let me warn you, if you examine the evidence, you'll forever be freed from the constant guilt you feel as a witness.
Talking about open mind, I wonder how Jws always encourage others to be open minded, when they themselves will not even peep through the curtains of thier Minds. You ask people to come to your kingdom halls, but will never set foot at the door of another church. You ask people to question thier own faith and doctrine, when you accept any thing thrown at you by the governing body without question, even when, according to them, it does not make sense to you; talk about double standard. If you're willing to be open minded, I dare you to visit the internet and read about the organisation. For a start, visit www.jwfacts.com. If you visit that site, I swear to God I'll follow to become one of Jw. If you refuse to check out that site and others that examines the believes and doctrines of the Jw, it will only mean that you're not confident of what you believe, and you're in darkness. Remember darkness fears light.

Enough of following in the religion of your birth. Question it, and prove to yourself that this indeed is the Truth.

If you can help people question thier beliefs, you shouldn't be afraid to do same yourself. But the Truth is, the governing body will tell you not to read from outside sources because they know you'll find out the Truth about thier so-called Truth. And you'd foolishly do as they tell you, because you think they speak for Jehovah. Yet Jeffery Jackson at the Australian Royal commission enquiry about Jehovah's witnesses handling of Child abuse cases denied under oath that they are the only true source through which God speaks. Yet they tell thier gullible followers that they are the only source, and they foolishly accept without question. Check it out, it's on the internet. Australian Royal commission enquiry about the Jws handling of Child abuse cases. It's a video, not here Say. No honest individual has remained in the autocratic organisation after watching that video.

I dare you to examine your organisation. I'll provide with any support you might require. Jesus said, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the father, except through me. It didn't say through the governing body or a faithful and discreet slave. Read your Bible again. Read Mathew 25 to 27 and you would see that the faithful and discreet slave Jesus talked about means completely different things from what the governing body is teaching Jws. Read that scripture on your own without the watchtower magazine. You can try reading that account from various translations. May God punish me if I'm trying to lead you astray and not to open your eyes to the strangle hold of the governing body.

I'm available anytime to discuss and prove any thing I put out here. But I expect you'll panic and run like most Jws do when confronted with facts about thier religion. Free yourself from cognitive dissonance. You're a member of a religious cult
Christianity EtcRe: Five (5) Misconceptions About Jehovah's Witnesses. by BENARI: 2:27pm On May 31, 2020
This religion has destroyed countless homes and families. This religion is the proverbial sheep in wolf covering.
They harbor child molesters, refusing to report them to the authorities, and victims of child molestation who choose to leave the religion because of injustice meted to them are shunned forever by loved ones, unless they return to the group.
Jws will not even report to the authorities one who confesses to killing people.
It's a one way street, and thier love is conditional. They love bomb you when you become thier member; but once you uncover thier false doctrines and head for the exit, they accuse of leaving Jehovah and then withdraw all thier conditional love. They tell everyone of thier members, your members who are Jws inclusive to shun you, never to even say a greeting to you.If you live with your parent at the time of making this decision, then you must leave the home, and your parents must never speak with you again unless you return back to the group.

Bottom line is this, although Jws regard as worldly and a Babylonian anyone not a member of thier cult, you're better off never joining the religion. If you ever join the religion, you must never leave. If you do, you'll loose everything and everyone you've ever known and had as friend or family.

They are a deadly cult.

Doubt me, go to the internet, read, watch and hear the stories of survivors of this Abusive religion.

Maximus69:
Tatime is a MINISTERIAL SERVANT amongst Jehovah's Witnesses, so he is already part of the officiating members Sir.

What he asked you is just a simple question.

Reading what you said about Jehovah's Witnesses simply because you heard we still study God's word with interested ones, then after i've made you see the hypocrisy in the social distancing thing you had no option than to switch over and start saying good things about the same person whom you've referred to as being 'deluded'.

Compare what you did to Jesus' temptation by the devil, then you'll realize what My brother is saying! undecided
So I'm now the devil? Hmmmmmm!

Brings me to yet another very interesting part of the Jws; judgement!

Did Jesus not say to stop judging others? Well that command clearly does not apply to Jws and watchtower organisation.
Judgementalism is another word for the watchtower organisation. Like you've heard Maximus here say unequivocally, they believe every religion other than thier own is false. What he will not tell you here, but which they teach and strongly hold onto is that, everyone not a Jw will be killed at Armageddon. Who gave them that authority to determine which is true and false, who lives and who gets destroyed?

Jws have what they call a Judicial committee. This committee is set up to judge people they term wrong doers who may have confessed to some biblical or non-biblical Sin, or who may have been accused by fellow witnesses who by the way police one another, watching to see that anyone who steps out of line is reported to the elders and is punished. By the way, what I meant by non-biblical Sin, are acts that do not constitute Sin in the Bible but made so by the watchtower organisation governing body pharasaic laws and policies, many of which are found in thier elders handbook, circuit overseers handbook, Bethel handbook, etc. Most rank and file witnesses know little or nothing of this handbooks as they are kept secret from them. In this handbooks, merely celebrating birthdays, christmas, disagreeing with the doctrines of the governing body, attending towns union meetings, growing beard, associating with a former member even if that former member is your mum, dad, son,
or daughters, and hundreds of other pharasaic laws they've made for thier members are considered and treated with equally the same gravity as the sin of fornication and adultery. Those who engage in any of this sins and are caught, are immediately summoned before a usually 3 or 4 men judicial committee and judged often with disastrous consequences for the offender. The worst of which is disfellowshiping. If you're disfellowshiped, you're as good as dead, if not worse. You'll loose all your social support structure. Your friends, family, and congregation members immediately stop talking or having anything to do with you, not even a greeting, and they do this without an iota of knowledge of why you have been so judged and condemned. They do this not because they choose to, but because the authorities of the organisation have told them to do so. It's so bad that your friend who perhaps accompanied you to the venue of the judicial committee seating, and perhaps waited behind for you in the car, will never speak with you again if you come out and break the news that you've been disfellowshiped. More on this later.

Jws are always on each others neck as far as judging is concerned. By merely seeing your outward appearance, a Jw has already made up his or her mind about whether you are a spiritual or weak Jw. They draw this conclusions from, how clean shaved you are, how tight or loose your pants are, how fitted or loose your shirt, skirt, or suit is, how short or long your skirt is, how long your lashes are, and many other outward things. Jws are therefore always under pressure to conform to the dictates of the governing body in order to be accepted as spiritual and to enjoy numerous privileges. It doesn't matter whether or not you're truly spiritual on the inside, you're only judged by your outward appearance and public display of spirituality. As a result, many Jws live what they call double life. When they are before fellow Jws and others who know they are Jws, they become saints, but when they are by themselves, or in strange land, they become thier real self.

There a lot more to say about Jws and thier judgementalism. I just wanted to give the audience here an idea into why Maximus would imply that I'm a devil for questioning thier doctrine. If you'll like to know more about this organisation, and the Truth about the absolute truth they claim only them have, please research the internet. just type in Jehovah's witnesses into your Google search engine, and you'll see thousands of materials, websites, YouTube videos, and more.

Some of you might say, but Jws are not the only religion who are judgemental. That's true, but that just goes to prove the point that there's nothing Peculiar about the Jws as they'll like to make us believe. They're just another Christian denomination like many others with thier own set doctrines and practices. But that, they don't like to hear. They don't want you to see them as one among many of its kind, they want you to believe they are the only true religion. If you disagree, you will be killed at Armageddon.

After exhibiting the exact opposite of Galatians 5:22-23, spontaneously he switched over to Matthew 7:15.

Wetin Musa no go see for gate! huh
You too have resorted to sarcasm!

Wonders shall never end. Dear all, you can now see it for yourselves, Jws are only calm and nice until they loose thier cool. They are really no different from every other Christians. Their seeming innocence is purely superficial. They will attack you like any other human being when challenged.
I feel for Jws. Every Jw is always filled with guilt and feeling of inadequacy because of the constant huge demands placed on thier shoulders by thier governing body. Jws are never able to do enough. When you see them on the streets going from house to house, it's not because they want to, it's usually because they would be seen as lacking spirituality if they don't. It's because they need to be seen by thier elders to be spiritually minded. It's because they'd have to report to the governing body the number of hours they spent preaching every month. That report is usually the hallmark of your spirituality or lack of it.

I pray and hope that some of you young men and women here who are Jws will take a moment to do some personal research about this religion most of you have been born into with a view to consciously and deliberately deciding whether or not it's for you.

There's a lot of materials, websites, YouTube videos on the religion of Jehovah's witnesses that you'll find quite revealing. There's a lot that the governing body does not want you to see or know; which is why they often keep hammering loyalty to organisation, when in fact they mean, loyalty to the governing body and not to God. Don't be afraid to use the internet to research the religion. After all, they have thier site on the internet, and they encourage others to visit thier site. You too visit other sites that discuss the religion other than Jw.org.

You can start with www.jwfacts.com
www.jwstruggle.com, and many more.

Don't be scared to do research. If you're scared, then that should tell you something. That should tell you you're not confident of the faith you profess.

I'm more than williwilling to assist any witness know the Truth about the Truth they claim to have.
I believe in God and Christ.
I believe there's one true God.
I believe in the Bible.
Jesus said I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the father, except through me. I believe those words completely. You do not need a governing body, a pope, bishop, or anyone else to come to the father. You only need Christ. Jesus never appointed any human representative to mediate between him and humans.

Clearly, you're a fake Jehovah's witness. You caved in to persecution. How do you intend to survive the always soon coming great tribulation, if you couldn't keep your cool in the face of my small online internet persecution. Jehovah, Jesus, the 24 elders, and the Angels must be very disappointed in you now. You failed to give a fine witness in the face of provocation. You did not endure to the end. O, too bad!
Maximus on the other hand is still bearing under tribulation like you just confirmed. Will he fall by the way side too, or will he hold fast to his integrity; time will tell.
By the way, Maximus, do you recognise that your monica has pagan root. Thought any thing with pagan root is frowned upon by Jws. The elders in your parish and the governing body should better not know you answer pagan name online, otherwise, you know what awaits.

As for you Tatime, go confess to your elders how you've brought reproach on Jehovah's name by the way you insulted a potential servant of Jehovah online and therefore stumbled me.

Hmmmm. Among Jehovah's witnesses are some good people. I perceive you're one. I however want you to know that there are good people both within and outside the organisation, as there are bad people both inside and outside too.
My problem with the organisation is the concept that everyone not a witness is not fit for life eternal. That's a false doctrine, don't believe it. I doubt you'll do it, but I urge you to learn more about the organisation of Jehovah's witnesses from outside sources that are not biased. What you'll find May shock you. Stop believing the scare tactics that any information not from the men of the governing body is satanic.
The truth fears no light. If the governing body actually does have the only truth, they should never be afraid of what their members will find from outside sources. Like they say, clear conscience fears no allegations.

Hmmmmmmmm, well Jesus' instruction has two aims:- PREACH and TEACH

It's the aspect to PREACH that we can't do for now, we have Bible Students that we still visit to [b]TEACH them what Jesus instructed. Matthew 28:20[/b]

So if you find what we are saying here appealing (preaching), we'll direct you to our brothers in your neighbourhood who will do the teaching, we are to teach you by examples not just words, so we need to see each other FACE to FACE before the teaching could be effective!

What you're demanding now is not the PREACHING but TEACHING, so follow the instructions to LEARN if truthfully you want to know Sir! smiley
What!!!!!!!

Did you just say you've been visiting your Bible students to teach them in this time of covid? Does that not amount to disobeying Caesar's law as Jesus himself warned against?
The authorities clearly warned everyone to stay home and observe social distancing, and you were busy visiting people? How sad! cry
Where then is the love of fellow man!
Just the other day, I read on your Jw site that over 800 witnesses have died from the virus. Only God knows how many more people they have infected by this ungodly visits.

Please stop visiting people's homes for now if you truly love them. I know the demand to report hours and Bible study is strong, but please use your head. Your governing body members are busy enjoying themselves in Warwick, while you expose yourself and others to risk.
Have you ever asked yourself; how many hours David spleen or Anthony Morris put in each month preaching and teaching thier version of the Goodnews?

Please stay away from people's homes o! I know if I report you to the authorities now, you people will start crying persecution. You guys love that word persecution soooo much, because it gives you guys a false sense of being Christ true followers.

Enjoy your paradise earth abeg. leave the rest of us to die in the great tribulation that has refused to come since the generation of 1914 and the overlapping generation too. grin

I have another question. Is it true Jehovah's witnesses are barred from reading any material that attempts to be critical of thier beliefs?
If true, I wonder how a witness will ever find out if the men of the governing body are wrong on in a particular doctrine, especially when that doctrine or policy could be costly to him or her.

I'm aware from my reading of thier publications that members are repeatedly urged to trust the governing body, to be loyal to them, even when the direction they provide does not make sense. Juxtapose that with Psalms 146:3 and see if thier demand from thier members is scriptural.

Even breast milk, both human and animal contain blood, same goes for meat and fish.
Therefore abstaining from blood is not possible if one eats those. Blood fractions saves lives. Blood transfusion saves lives.

A bad math student would know the difference is just paltry '1,071' leaving Osun, ogun, Ekiti, Ondo and Lagos. Take the differential figure from Lagos and it won't be noticed. So the question is, who is fooling who?

Our brown roofs doesn't mean we aren't developed, it's just that we are too big to be noticed. If you remove brown roofs from southeast, the developed areas can't be noticed compare to southwest.

They claim that nowhere is developed in southwest except Lagos but this is an eye-opener for those gullible ones swallowing lies upon lies of southeast folks. Showing us our brown roofs doesnt mean we are mate in terms of infrastructural developments.

Before I even read your stupidity expressed in writing, I hope you're having a nice time feeding on your large surface area.

I'm sorry for you and your likes. At this moment in time, you still think waste land or even natural resources is something to brag about.
Sorry!

Hello everybody. I am Nigerian based in France. My English it is not 100% perfect but I will try to make it possible for you to understand me with the help of google french to English translator and my story is also long sorry for that.

When I was 9 years old I joined my uncle, my mum's younger brother in France. He declared me as his daughter. During that time he only had one child, 2 years old. He and the wife were so loving to me. I never lacked anything in their house.

But when I turned 12, I went to secondary school. I met some bad friends there. This is where the problem started.I became a very difficult child. I will go to school come home late. My uncle will beat and beat me but I never listened. I smoked my first cigarette at 12 and had my first sex at 13 and I started running away from home to stay with boyfriends. Sometimes I can go for a week and when uncle reporta me missing, the police will be looking for me, then they will bring me back home.

Then at 14 I went to school and lied to my teacher that my uncle was abusing me. I told them he was beating me with belts, electric wire, they don’t give me foods and I really said a lot of bad things about them doing to me to make my teacher believe my story so they could take me away from them because I wanted freedom and my teacher believed me and reported to the police and child protection, they are people who take away abused children from their parents. They took custody of me and my uncle three children, the youngest was 6 months old to their care and they gave us to this white lady to care for us and my uncle and wife were arrested for child abuse and the police were doing some investigation.

After spending 1yr 9 months in care of the white lady I dropped out school. They found out that I was a difficult child that I lied to get freedom so they have decided to give my uncle his children back to him while I stayed in care of white people but my uncle had sworn because I made him lost his children for 1yr 9 months that I will never found happiness in my life and I will never enjoy the fruit of my labour which it is true as I am typing this.

I have given birth to 6 children by 6 men and none of the children is living with me. The first one was taken away from me at 2 months old because I beat her up and fractured her hands and I also tested positive for heroinn (drugs), so that did not stop me from giving birth second child was removed from my care 4 hours after birth she also tested positive for heroin the same way my other children were removed at birth too so I carry on with my lifestyles. I did not care about my children at that time all I care about was sex, alcohol and drugs this is what I wanted and I have been to prison several times for selling drugs and fraudsters. The longest I have spent in prison was 2 years then after i left prison, I met with this sister who introduced me to this church she attended so I went along with her, the pastor told me to confess my sin to him and promised it will be a secret between I, him and God which I did repented and accepted Jesus as my saviour. To be honest, my life did changed a lot, I fell the peace in my heart , enjoyed going to church every Sunday but this pastor went tell his wife my life story and the wife told everyone in church my life story and started using it against me so it made me so angry that I left the church in November 2017 without looking back. I have decided not to attend any church again. I have stopped alcohol, taking drugs and sleeping with men I no longer do it. I prayed at home, read my bible and behaving good and it's almost 2 years I havnt slept with a man and i went to look for my uncle asking him for forgiveness but he has refused and I send him many text messages begging him to forgive and I still no heard anything from him or the wife even their children I have tried to ask them forgiveness they have blocked me and they all want nothing to do with me even my own parents and siblings in Africa they have rejected me, none of them want to talk to me, my parents said i am dead to them, it is so painful I cry everyday in my prayers, as for my children 4 of them are adopted with new family. I can't see them again maybe until they are 18 years old If they want to know me if they don't want I will have no choice to accept it and my 2 youngest children i am only allowed to see them once a year in a children play centre with someone supervise because they don't let me to be alone with them and soon I will stop visiting them because they are planning to adopt them to a new family too that will mean I will have nobody on this earth.

I regret my mistake so bad I wish I could change it but it will no be impossible. I can't have more children because they will be removed from me like the others and I am only 31years old. I don't know if my repentance was genius because my family has refused to forgive me and my question goes like this if they never forgive me will I ever found happiness again or I will just have to accept it until I died?

Please, advise me in a Christian way maybe if there's more I can do and also prayed for me so my family will be able to forgive me and also pray for my two children that nobody will adopt them so I can get custody of them and i promised to be a good mother to them, please I am begging you in the name of God.
As difficult as it might sound, it will be near impossible to have those kids back. You said they tested positive for heroin at birth. That will mean you cared nothing about any of those kids while you carried them in your womb. That those children are alive is probably because of the good Health system there, the authorities, and the care of thier new parents. You lost the right to be mother to those children.
If you wish, you may go ahead and have another child or children(You're still young). If you're able to take good care of them, that will bring you joy, and possibly make it possible for some of your other children and even relatives to see you're now a new person.

Work hard to be somebody. Challenge yourself, go back to school if you can, get a degree, and you'll see the world taking note of you again, even those who have lost hope in you.

Best wishes

She did it out of self defense of course, except you did not read what she wrote properly.
I read what she wrote, and I guess you did too. If you did, you'll see that whatever she did was premeditated because she's threatening to do same and even worse to a cheating husband she's yet to have. A person like that posses a risk to society and should be confined away from normal humans. What you don't know in defending psychos like her is that the victim could be your brother, and who knows, she could act on mere suspicion and end the life of an innocent man. Allowing her threats here to go unhindered could embolden others; both men and women to follow same course, and even you could be a victim. Her barbaric act and threat of violence is unacceptable. She needs to be stopped.

Abetterperson:
is just me or is all what you wrote there rubbish. I apologise if I sound rude but WHAT. the woman should check her attitude
she should pray
she should not leave( she should wait for the husband to bring STDs)
she should contact the side chick because na she send the husband message

and I didn't see any thing about the husband in ur advise

see I don't support murder o..but I support divorce
Many married women go far further than this to keep thier marriage. It's unfortunate, But na person wey get money go divorce the husband. If you no get, na to fight for your property before another person collect am.

That's why it's easier for men to divorce a cheating wife, but I tell you if the woman get better money, the poor husbands dey forgive o

Story. Very useless article and writer. Imagine how pathetic you'd look reaching out to the girl to beg her to stop sleeping with your husband. I have too much pride and I'd rather pour acid on my husband's face after all I made the wedding vows with him.

Let him dare cheat on me first

I will burn him alive while he's asleep

I honestly pity the man that'd end up with me because I can kill if I ever get hurt

I've sliced off a man's prick before and I can do even worse than that
Slicing off a man's prick is a criminal act and should handled by the law.

Mods this lady just made an open confession about harming a fellow human in a rather barbaric manner. You have a responsibility to ensure that a report is made about this fellow, otherwise you'll be a sharer in her crime. Worse still, she is threatening to pour Acid on any man who cheats on her. This must not be tolerated and allowed to flourish on this platform please.

Do the needful.
