There's nothing like a perfect wedding because perfection is in continuum. The most important thing is a blessed, happy and a "heaven on earth" marriage life. May God continually bless and uphold the union.

Please (even though I know my appeal with fall on deaf ears too numerous to count in this forum), approach this issue with logic and without prejudice to the people involved.

My wife and I are duly blessed with a son who is in his basic 5 now. Also, we decided to get the daughter of one of my cousin to stay with us. She is one of 7 children. So I wanted to help raise a CHIMAMANDA.

As my rule, every child of same age under my room attends the same school and calls us Dad & Mum. The school part didn't quite seat well with my wife, who had a different opinion, but I prevailed anyway. Because na me dey pay school fees.

The girl is a year older than my son, but due to the level of education at the village before she came over, we made her be in the same class as my son. She met my son in primary 2. Now they are both in basic 5.

A shocker happened: This girl keeps coming up in the class, while my son keeps running away from the top. We've tried extra lessons, even tried changing schools. Now it looks as if the girl is better suited for school than my boy. She reads, spells and memorizes things too marvellous. I bought a dictionary cos of that.

I even buy gifts for her (for coming top) more than I do for my boy, to make him sit up, but my pikin nor send me o. Guy use cry & Woman power make me buy am bicycle. 😁

I would think he's being a spoilt boy, who believes daddy & mommy is there, I don't really know. But I am hopeful.

Now, my major issue is my heavily pregnant wife. She wants the girl to be changed/enrolled at a different school. In her defence, she wants her to be available to help her take care of things. The kid's school close by 3pm. She suggest government school that close earlier. I see sense in what she said but I feel like I'll be unfair to this young girl.

When I tried to have a healthy debate on the idea. Na so madam start to dey talk plenty tins wey I nor fit type.
I have accepted to do her wish from September for peace.

Please, do you see another way I could avoid problems?

Is she right to have asked that I changed the girl's school just because she needs help around the house & her business?

The real question is if she were her daughter, would she have suggested changing school from private (considering her academic prowess) to a govt school so that she could come back home and assist her.

Pls send the girl back to the village just to protect her from your wife. You can still assist her financially while in the village.

I don't know of cats but I certainly know of dogs. Dogs get depressed for few days if their puppies die or get missing so in extension, the same may apply to cats.

Bear... Bears don't attack humans except on cocaine like the one in the 2023 movie Cocaine Bear.

The major value the strap of leather or metal worn on the wrist is that it's worth 300k dollar. Wow! Mennhn... 300k 4kin dollars!!!

Old news...what's wrong with nairaland these days..na wa o

Be calming down. He reiterated that during the ongoing 73rd annual anniversary.

I remember that Baba Adeboye wanted to retire as the G.O few years ago probably as a result of a certain government policy, I don't just understand why he rescinded on his decision then.

What's the way out?

Civil liberty organization, pressure group including the NLC should stage a protest demanding that
His state of health should be ascertained and his team of lawyers should have unrestrained access to him. Also, he should be either charged to court or granted unconditional release.

Also, the legislature should wake up to their responsibility. One of the powers of the legislature is oversight function. Sowore( although a non-state actor) claims that the current IG is an illegal IG, the legislature can investigate the matter within the ambit of the law and then come out in unison to either repudiate or affirm Sowore's claim. The silence of what ideally should be the most powerful organ of government is sickening and an epitome of a failing democratic system.

OMG, see someone's perspective/ narration. It has been said that the media is very powerful that it can turn a saint into a sinner and a sinner into a saint.

First, I haven't seen a scene where Sowore pushed a police officer. Also, the exact moment when his smart eye glasses was taken off was inadvertently captured on camera and the identity of the thief/lout and who he was working for became clearer. If not for an evil and clandestine motive, when did a smart eye glasses become a threat to the police?

Even if there's a genuine reason to confiscate his eye glasses, there should be a more professional way to handle and not using a pickpocket style.

They may be stricter and more serious with life than others.

Personal lent should precede over collective lent.In other words, fasting and prayers should be personally curated towards one's needs and unique experiences.

A certain nobody Botragelad swore that Russian troops were kicked out of Syria.

Meanwhile Russian bases in Syria remained untouched and Russia was among the first country the new leaders met after the coup.

Reality is oftentimes disappointing for Botragelad and his minions.

It's wrong and barbaric to describe a fellow analyst or poster as a 'nobody'. We all can't agree on the same issue. We all have different perspectives and worldviews and that's what make education or learning worthwhile.

Lemme use this time to ask

Do Nigeria have anything like submarine?

Good question. We have God and the goodwill or the church minds of other countries.

Many IBDC prepaid customers have been stranded due to IBDC bill payment palava. Payments aren't going through both digitally and physically at the station. This issue has been ongoing for two to three days and what's most frustrating aspect is the lack of update or any sort of assurance on when the issue will be resolved.

Russia and India economies dead The US President needs to be tranquilized, he has been getting worked up lately.

Wow! I have some nostalgic memory of this chicken back then in Lagos.

Stop supporting evil and an unproductive sector. The evil you support may come back to hunt you, your app building business, your family and your loved ones. You should be smart enough to know that there is a big difference between being productive or rendering genuine services vs just being opportunistic and manipulative.

I will be willing to send $5 just for record sake that I equally give to nations.

Around 40k and 50k monthly should suffice and this should only be for his 100 and 200 level. By 300 level, the money should be deliberately reduced so as to enable the student get more sense and to prepare him for life after school.

I think the whole idea is to ensure moderation and to keep some 'alaseju' in check.

It's not a matter of defamation. The issue is 'You thief keke abi you no thief keke?

While Tinubu's daughter, Habibatu Oyindamola was alleged to have bought a condo in highbrow New York City for $2.4 million when she was just 22 years with no visible source of income. In today's currency, that money is about 3.5 billion naira.

The actress claims to be fighting against stigmatisation, but in a contradictory manner, she is passionately and vehemently denying an HIV positive status. She even went to the extent of doing a live video of herself taking an HIV test.

Let her come to Nigeria instead. She will only have to cope with everything except racism.

Teaching! When someone asks about your job or profession and you reply that I'm a teacher, you are likely to be considered less fortunate and somewhat poor. Albeit, I like saying I work as a teacher even though teaching is not my main source of income.

Six months notice rent free?

17 more characters needed..

That's where the issue is, he shouldn't have collected the remaining balance but the court is there to interpret that part.

The notice of eviction should be at least six months so he can't deplace you before that time except on some serious and deadly charges which isn't the case here Just get a lawyer and stand your ground if he threatens You can even sue for damages and legal fee. The threat of using army would even make the case more favorable to you. You can sue for harassment and intimidation as well. The only hassle I see here is the collection of your rent balance which denotes your acceptance or approval of the eviction. You shouldn't have collected the money in the first place.

May his soul rest in peace!

I do not know if the funds are truly government or personal funds. But, you should never underestimate the power of reputation, influence and goodwill. She could raise 10 billion if she wanted to. The only thing she'd do is to write to all these politicians looking for favours from the president and they'd run coming.
I am not a fan of this administration but I know raising 1billion would be child's play for the first lady.

I think you're talking about the First Lady making money from being a power broker but that's still corruption in its entirety.

The set of people forming a coalition to unseat the president is quite counterintuitive, and it's a great win for the incumbency.
