For some soldiers to still do this knowing that someone of their colleagues were recently disciplined for beating up a cripple, it shows they are the level disregard for laws of the land. They feel they can do as they please with impunity. Those soldiers should be made to face the full wrath of the law. They are no better than touts on the streets of lagos. |

Don't fight him. you deal with this kind of man with intelligence, let him have his way, be the best wife you can to him so he will realise what he stands to loose when you leave him. Give him time if he continues you may then leave . And watch how he will come running back. If he doesnt , then he doesnt deserve you. You must also have allies among his family members. Nd pray he doesn't catch any disease as a result of sleeping around |

He bought me a business class ticket and sent me an address in Agungi area of Lekki to wait for him at his girlfriend's house as he would want us to have a party as he enjoyed my breasts. Lo and behold the house was the house of nollywood actress Iyabo ojo iyaboojofespris in an estate called 5Streets in Agungi.
I have lived in Agungi for so many years and I can tell u there is no estate called 5streets there unless it was built last night. There is five street estate in agungi, Google is your friend  |
