| Family › Does He Owe His Aunt An Apology? by blackmann(op): 8:53pm On May 24, 2011 |
I read this story online about a man and his domineering aunt, and i thot i shld share it witht the house. What wuld any of u guys do if u were in his shoes? Excerps:- Dear Aunty Kemi, As i write u this letter, i'm in tears. things have not been going on well with my wife and i ever since i sent my aunt out of the house. i need your advice on what to do, as well as the advice of many well nigerians. My wife nd i got married about 9 months ago. we wanted to start our lives together in the best way we could, away from the prying eyes of my extended family members, so after getting married, i requested my office transfer me to Abuja from Lagos. My wife is not from my tribe(she is a non-yoruba), ever since i began dating her, most of my family members were against me dating and wanting to marry a non-yoruba lady. i stood my ground, saying that this is who i want to marry. To God's glory, my parents supported me. My younger brothers also took her like the sister they never had. I have this aunt of mine(my dad’s older sister). Everyone knew that this woman sometimes had alot of wahala about her, selfish, poking her nose into other pple's business, always wanting to take from pple but wasn’t willing to give. I was warned by my brothers to try as much as not to discuss my fiancee(now my wife) in front of her, but since her two sons(my cousins) were used to coming to spend sometime with me in Lagos then, they met her anytime she flew down from abuja for the weekend. They both liked her so much and i guess they ended up telling their mum, cos i was surprised when one day my baby called me and told me my aunt called her, asking about her, this, that. I was surprised that she didn’t even call me to ask about her b4 talking to her. Anyway i let that one pass. I 4got to mention earlier that i usually give this my aunt some money anytime she asked for it, and that was frequently. Now that i had a wife and home of my own, my responsibilities shifted and i had to stop giving out money as frequently as i used to. This annoyed my aunt and she kept on telling me so. I tried expaining things to her, but since she didn’t want to listen, i decided to keep quiet. The last thing that broke the straw was when she came over to spend sometime with my wife nd i. I was skeptical about the whole thing and told my wife so, but she said there will be no problem, that i shld let her come. She came with her 2nd daugher, and ever since that visit, my life has never been the same. From day one, if it is not this, it is that. She never seemed to be pleased with anything my wife did. My baby kept on complaining anytime i got home from work, but i told her to keep her cool, that she will not be there for long. In the long run, she ended up spending more than 3 weeks with us, and she was always like she wanted to eat this, she wanted to go here nd there, even with the limited budget my wife nd i were following. One evening, i came home nd met my wife crying in the room. I asked her what happened nd she said my aunt insulted her. i asked my aunt what she did to warrant such insults, nd she started shouting, telling me she never knew my wife was so disrespectful, that she had warned me never to marry a non-yoruba girl, this, that. I felt pissed and bad, knowing very well that my wife would never do such a thing. I had to call my dad nd mum who are in USA for advice. They told me to try as much as possible to get her out of the house. I finally decided to act when things were getting worse. One Saturday i dropped my aunt and her daughter off at another of my big sister’s place, nd my wife had gone to the saloon and market. I had these motion detector surveilance cameras i bought while in the USA for my studies, and i decided to install them securely where they wouldn’t be seen. At least if anything happened, i’ll have proof. For the next 3 days, i secretly recorded happenings going on between my wife nd my aunt. I also saw that her daughter too connived with her mum to treat my baby badly. On the last day, i witnessed her slap my wife, and when she went to tell her mum, she too slapped her!!! i acted as if i wasn’t in the know. The following morning(Wednesday), i called all of them and sat them down. I quietly played the whole thing to them. I asked my aunt why she treated my baby like that. She refused to answer, rather shot daggers with her eyes at me. I also turned to my cousin and asked her who gave her the audacity to slap my wife. She was about to say some trash when i snapped. The beating i gave her that day, no one was able to stop me until i finished. I then told my aunt that i want her out of my house by the next day, and that she shldn’t ever come back. On my way to work, i called my dad in USA and told him everything. To cut a long story short, my aunt went back to her Lagos and started painting my wife in a bad image, telling everyone who cared to listen that i beat my cousin and sent both of them out of the house because of a woman who wasn’t even from their tribe. Some of my other family members supported her, but my dad nd mum just told me to take things easy, that i shldn’t make any contact with them anymore. Right now my wife is so heartbroken. She was so sad and depressed, she had a miscarriage, which devastated not only her, but me too. My mum had to talk to her a couple of times. I plan sending her to US to be with my mum for sometime next month. Right now i’m so sad. |

ThiefOfHearts:Are u referring to me? if you are, read the red part of the interview below before deciding whether my post makes sense to you or not. Tonto speaking: We don't have to have a mutual relationship. As an artist, it is something you should be able to insulate in your professional career. Sometimes I don't even know those I act with so well. Sometimes I just meet them and act and after the movie, I collect my money and I go on my way. End of story! What I do with romantic kissing roles is just to keep looking at the money I'm to be paid. I will just be thinking of my money when I'm kissing the person. My own is just pay me and let me move on to the next movie" is it clear enough? |

So is she suggesting that if she's contacted to act in an X-rated movie, she'll just think of the money she's to be paid while being screwed by "actors she doesn't know"? these kinda babes and money sef. she cheapened herself with that statement. |

mannie32: you don't need to thank me bro. I follow these auctions here in US alot and i know how much they go for. the cleaner the car, the lower the mileage, the more dealers that will bid, and thus the more expensive it will be. and that's the cost of the car. the cost of shipping and stuff have not been factored in yet. people should appreciate sellers too. majority of cars on nigerian roads today are salvage vehicles that were repaired, and those come cheaper and easier to repair. |
| Autos › Re: What Mileage Ranges On Cars Are Acceptable In Nigeria by blackmann(op): 12:21pm On May 20, 2011 |
calculusx:that's another thing about Nigerians. Apart from auctions, many people do not know that majority of the vehicles on the lots of these dealers are salvage, and those ones come cheap. My uncle here just bought a salvaged, low mileage Honda accord 2003 model yesterday, and do you know how much it cost? just above $3000 with some change. tops, he'll buy the parts that are damaged, and that doesn't cost him more than $1000, shipping, clearing, and repairs less than another 500k, and before you know it, the car is as good as new and he makes a good profit selling it. That's why some of them do not want you to copy down the VIN number, they say it's against their policy. |

calculusx:Thanks for your response. People back home do not realize that the lower the mileage of a car, the more expensive the car will be here in the USA. They'll tender ridiculous prices and expect the seller to agree on that price. |

guys help me out here |

the problem we Nigerians have is we see a nice thing, we won't want to pay good money for it. I understand the sellers point of view when it comes to selling at that price, considering cost of shipping, clearing, transporting to the port(they do not allow unregistered vehicles to be driven on the roads here, thus an additional cost of getting a tow-truck), not to even talk of auction fees and even the cost of the ride itself. I know how much these cars go for here and if it were me, i wouldn't let fly for lesser than 1.7m. But that's just me. |
| Autos › What Mileage Ranges On Cars Are Acceptable In Nigeria by blackmann(op): 4:37pm On May 19, 2011 |
I have it in mind to send a car down home to my brother to sell. the car is a 2004 EOD and in good condition, but the mileage on it is rather high(above 100000 miles). I hear that people these days are very particular about the mileages on cars they want to buy, but i feel that so long as the engine of the car is very sound and well taken care of, the mileage doesn't mean anything. So to the likes of Viperman and others out there, what range of mileage do you all consider to be the best when buying a car here in the US to sell in Nigeria? |

with all the different reports coming out of Oyo state, which one is true? who is leading in oyo state? who has been declared governor by INEC? |

That's a good one for Oyo state. I've been following the reports since yesterday. the trend continues. no one govern's Oyo state twice, and it certainly won't start with the bleaching pig of a governor. (Apologies to all pigs in the country and the world) |

The only way you can increase your bust size is if you go for enhancement surgery, but i doubt if it is done in Naija. People do it alot here in the USA, but it costs alot of cash to get it done by a qualified and skilled cosmetic surgeon. If you have the money, then go ahead. but i wouldn't advise u too. By the way if i may ask, what's ur cup size? if it is a B or a C, why would you want to make them bigger? |

samtoye:[b]U're right about that in some sense, but atimes some customers offer such ridiculous prices that even the seller himself will feel insulted. So i sort of understand where the seller is thinking from cos it's happened to me several times as well. Look at this case for example - i had a 2006 Mercedez benz i wanted to sell off some years ago. After recieving a call from someone and driving the car down, and after inspecting and test-driving, the eediot offered 350,000 naira!!! It's a good thing that i'm a very civilized person or else the kida insults i wanted to hurl at the guy that day, he'll run home and think well before opening his mouth to offer such ridiculous sums. I just got into the car and drove off without another word. like jerryben12 said, the Nigerian car market has been so bastardized, most of the cars coming in are salvaged vehicles which relatively go for a fraction of the clean titled cars here in the US. The dealers just buy them, repair them for less than 100,000 naira, and add their gains and other stuff, which do not come even near to the price of if it were a clean title car.[/b] |
