This Op doesnt give her husband peace period. A man cant just wake up one morning and say this, there is basically something he has told her to stop doing but she refused to listen may be because of pride or something. The truth is whether you like it or not, there's something you did or do that the other lady is doing or has done better.
This is just a minor stuff but I am sorry you have taken the wrong decision because I see no reason why you should have called the other lady, even if they were out together, keep calm and work on your husband not the lady, why save her number? Why call her? Sometimes I wonder if you people attend marriage seminars/Counselling before getting married.
Minor issue don turn Mountain for una
Welcome to a new life but it's unfortunate it's the kids that will suffer the effects of a broken home.
Kate999: I have been in a serious relationship with a guy for 7 years, last year I formally introduced him to my parents. We want to start the marriage arrangements this year but my mum has bluntly refused my fiancée, her excuse is that the guy is not presentable due to his slender physique and she feels that I will be maltreated by the guy once we get married.
I know this guy too well and he cares for me a lot and has never raised his hands on me. My mum has insisted that if I go on with the my wedding plans she will disown me and place a curse on me.
What baffles me is that she has never seen this guy in person, they have only talked on the phone, she just made her judgement via phone calls and photographs.
I really want to fight for what I love but both my parents have refused to respect my decision.
You formally introduced him to your parents & same you said your mom has not seen him before? I don't understand this part?
NOBLE179: The SAD Story of Ghana’s Best Keyboardist who was making £8,000 per weekend but died with just 70 cents
Kiki Gyan also called Kiki Djan was undoubtedly Ghana’s best keyboardist who won the hearts of global music lovers with his amazing keyboard works.
The story of Kiki has created precedence in the art industry with the notion that most celebrities die poor. So we ask is it ‘monecrazy’ or ‘asuoden’?
Most Ghanaian celebrities who made it big at the peak of their creative careers are living or have died poor.
Kiki at the peak of his career at his very young age (18 years) was making over $1 million, hanging out with Elton John and Mick Jagger, played for the British Queen and cruised on champagne-drenched luxury ocean-liners to island-hop in the Caribbean, it was a particularly ignominious way to cross life’s finish line. This was in the 70s, so you can imagine how ‘best’ life was for him at the time.
Kiki died at age 47 of AIDS and drug-related complications. He was found dead in a toilet inside a church, with the equivalent of 70 US cents in his pocket.
“Right now, I’m sad. Very sad, I‘m sad, not because Kiki’s dead – he was suffering too much; I saw him every day. I’m sad because he should’ve died with dignity.” said Mac Tontoh, a trumpeter, and joint-leader of Osibisa, the erstwhile London-based Afro-rock group with whom Kiki first found fame in the early 1970s.
How Kiki’s talent was discovered
Tontoh, now in his sixties, is the man who spotted Kiki’s keyboards talent in 1971 and signed him on with Osibisa.
And it was he who, together with Kiki’s sister, Gugi, found his body and signed him in to the mortuary.
Kiki came from a middle-class family in Takoradi in the western region of Ghanaand dropped out of secondary school at 14.
“There was too much music in me; I couldn’t stay in school,” he said.
He’d been playing the piano at home since he was three. He joined Osibisa shortly after a tour of London with a local Ghanaian band, Pagadija.
“I remember our first gig with Kiki – this was in Cardiff. The boy was just fantastic! Fantastic!” recalls Tontoh.
“After the show, all the girls charged at him. They were tearing him apart; they all wanted a piece of him. Kiki was running. We had to call the bouncers to protect him,”
Tontoh said.
“We travelled round the world, flew first class, slept in the best hotels and had the best girls. Man, life was good, too good,” Kiki told me in an interview three years ago.
“More than $2m ($3.6m) passed through my hands. I could make £8,000 over a weekend as a session keyboardist. I was the best in London.”
Worst day experienced by Kiki Ghana’s Best Keyboardist
In 1979, Kiki left Osibisa to pursue a solo career. His single 24 hours in a Disco, featuring a 16-piece orchestra, made the charts in the UK and America.
“Producers told me I could become the next Boney M,” Kiki said. That’s where his career peaked.
The fame and fortune went his head, and soon “psychedelic pharmaceuticals” too.
Kiki picked up a narcotic drug habit, which he battled with for the rest of his life.
“The day I tasted cocaine in New York, was the baddest day of my life,” he said. “At one point, I had a $5,000 a day habit.”
Kiki Djan went in and out of rehabilitation during much of the last six years, after failing to revive his career.
South African trumpeter Hugh Masekela even pitched in, flying him out to a drug rehab center in South Africa in 2003.
But Kiki went back to the habit upon his return to Ghana.
He became a tattered pauper who begged for coins on street corners, and slept wherever sleep found him.
His Sense of humour
“What would you do differently if you had to live life all over again? I asked Kiki in a TV interview two years ago.
“I would take my Mum and fly her all over the world,” he responded.
“These days I don’t go to see my Mum anymore, because whenever she sees me her temperature rises.”
Last month, Kiki told me he had Aids.
“When did you know this?” I asked.
“Seven years ago,” he replied in between terrible coughs. He had become so skinny that his shoulder blades were tearing through his shirt.
Obviously, Kiki’s drug addiction wasn’t his prime worry.
In a sense, he had become fatalistic. In his final years, he took the drugs to numb him from the pain that his life had become.
Kiki Djan joked sometimes that after all the women he’d been with, he couldn’t believe he had only one child.
He leaves behind a 20-year-old daughter, Vanessa Gyan, and takes with him a sense of humor.
Abetterperson: My long time crush recently came home big, he brought with him the lastest cars and accessories, I was shocked because this guy is in his late teens.
He saw me one day and offered to take me out, me I nor gree because I nor one die, I Neve reach to see my ancestors, his source of income is still unknown, I asked his sister, she claims he caught one big client and that's how he made his money, I was like big client, as in Yahoo! She reply yes that Yahoo (fraud) is really favoring him.
His family all thinks he is a Yahoo boy but the thing is that one of his friends that hustle at the same office (fraud hangout) is no where to be seen, rumor has it that the guy refused to do ritual and was killed because he knows the secret of their wealth, that guy's family are still looking for answer but sadly the police are not helping, they are busy collecting money from my ex crush.
My ex crush family are all standing tall saying that the devil wants to use people to destroy their happiness.
Just last week my ex crush invited me to come to his Thanksgiving in CHURCH, like what is he thanking God for, for helping him Carry out his crimes. The pastor is not helping matters, why would he let that guy do Thanksgiving in his church, a money from the devil is going to be presented at the alter of God.
Please is this ritual thing even real because people are calling the guy a ritualist.
Mind your business ooooo. The system is corrupt and even the Police are not helping matters. Yahoo + is no longer a secret thing and neither are the guys afraid of the Police.
Nigerian man has been spotted using an expensive G-Wagon to display and sell plantain on the streets of Owerri, Imo State.
A video which was shared on on Facebook shows the moment an unidentified young man was seen marketing his plantain business using a G-Wagon. The young man could be seen ringing a bell as a business strategy to attract customers while the boot of his car was wide open with bunches of plantain displayed in it.
Many passersby went to patronize the trader while some who seems to be surprised and watched him display from a distance.
The young man didn’t relent on his business as he took some bunches of plantation and moved from one place to another in search of customers.
Dailyparrot: My brother lives in the remote part of Ikorodu. They have three kids.
The children didn't go to school throughout last term and this term again, they've been staying at home. When other kids in the compound have gone to school, his kids will remain at home with the wife doing nothing.
The reason the wife stopped the kids from going to school is because she wants them to leave that part of Lagos and move to the developed part of Ikorodu or any township part of Lagos.
Invariably, she's using the kids staying at home to protest and punish the husband, maybe?
I feel she's punishing the kids and not the husband. My brother leaves for work very early in the morning and will not be able to take the kids to school himself.
He's not financially capable of relocating at this time but I feel he can plan with his wife and save towards relocating, maybe in a year's time but I doubt the wife is taking the best approach.
The wife said she's not taking up any job or starting any business until they relocate from that area. So for now, the whole burden is on my brother.
Please, what's the best approach to this their family issue. We don't want to take side and go hard on the wife, but, don't feel she's taking the best decision for the kids.
When you marry wrong? this is the result.
In this life you have to start where you are don't wait till you relocate to big neighborhoods because we all have different paths of Grace.

Hello Omosexie, I just shared this vacancy on a platform on telegram and I would like to know if you are part of the HR team?
gazeup1: I created this new handle to hide my identity.
I got married 11 years ago. We both started working before we got married, but my salary was way above my wife's own. I was earning 195k while she was on 108k when we got married, after my MSC, I was promoted and started to earn 350k, this got to me and I started to misbehave, I was doing all sorts and would insult the hell outa her. As the cry cry girl, she would cry, and thereafter I would hear her praying. At times she would say she will one day be greater than me. That to me was an impossibility.
I can't even remember ever giving her money for home keep but we never lacked food at home (we delayed before having kids, so I don't see the need for me to give her monthly money and she never asked). I started giving her after we had kids. She agreed when I told her her money was for the home and mine for investment, but I never included her name in my properties. she knows this as well.
After our kids, it became very demanding, coupled with her office not increasing her pay, she resigned, and that was when I felt the impact of her income. Meanwhile, her pay was reduced to about 80k and mine was increased to like 600k as at when she resigned. In one month I started asking her to return back to her work as to me I was not ready to foot her bills, she never even asked for money, she would even say what I gave her is left 5k or more self at the end of the month.
Now her new journey - When I started disturbing about going back to her former office or getting a new job, she said never and asked me to stop giving her money but go to market to buy food myself. In less than 4 months to her resignation she started talking about online job here and there, I thought it was a scam so I warned her. One day, I was in the office when she said she needs me to help her wit the best laptop to buy, I tried to talk her down on buying one but she ended the call on me.
I got home to see her with a new laptop. fast forward, she paid for a training on how work from home without my knowledge, got her first job of about $200, I also washed her down on going that low for such an amount but she said it was better than her former 80k job, before I knew it, she started talking about $1,000, now it's $3,000, to $4,000 monthly. I earn lower than #1M, my wife gets over #2M monthly working from home. She helped me finished my house project, very transparent and would not hide any $ she earns.
I have not been able to forgive myself of all the things I did to her, the insults, talking down on her but in a way I think I pushed her to become who she is now. I remembered when she asked back then to open a joint account with her, I laughed her to scorn, like how would the ratio be. she saved over 6M and credited my account with everything, just for us to complete our home. I can't even produce 1M.
She doesn't seem hurt, but sometimes she reminds me of those words, I have never officially told her sorry neither have I really changed because I am just like that, I don't mean evil. I wanted her to braze up and never stay low.
Married, men, please how do I ask for her forgiveness? I don't think we have up to 2% of her type out there.
Op, you are a mumu man. How will a man be insulting his wife because he earns more than her? Just so stupid.

My lovely wife and I have been married for almost 2 years now. I know I am not a perfect person and she is not too but we have been managing.
Why I opened this thread is that I am very afraid of her new attitude of always carrying weapons anytime we have a misunderstanding.
It started when I found out she had an abortion without telling me and when I confronted her she flared up and started behaving like a tout jumping here and there.
On Friday last week we were discussing about how to go about the new business I want to set up for her and somehow we got into an argument and she ran into the kitchen and grabbed a knife.
Again, this morning I simply asked her to waybill some foodstuffs to her father as I wouldn't be able to do that before heading to my place of business and she grabbed my clothes and started calling me names, next thing she picked up the belt hanging on the wardrobe and started threatening to teach me a lesson.
I have never been a woman beater and honestly don't know what has gotten into her. We have a pending issue we are yet to sort out but still I am keeping my calm why is she the one suddenly going violent??
Please what do I do? I don't want blood on my hands because if I touch her it will be very bad. My marriage is still young.
Your wife did abortion without your knowledge? This alone is a good reason to send her packing yet you are talking about business. Wetin dey worry some of una sef?
