One can find love at any age.Am happy for her and my prayer is,this one would last.

Like him or not,what one can not take away from baba Iyabo is, he has got clout;He is a charismatic leader who commands a lot of respect in other lands;His mediator role did not start now-the story of the triumph over apartheid in South Africa will not be complete without the mention of his name.I pray he makes a success of this assignment and get the power-drunk Gbagbo out of office.

You complaining about getting an apartment in lag?You need to ask Abuja residents what they are going through;even in the satellite towns,they pay outrageous rents for houses in communities that are best described as shanties and whether in the main city or not,you do not ever get to see the house owners.It is indeed a terrible situation.

Must we call for the woman's head because she goes clubbing?If it was a man there with a girl his grand daughter's age,am sure he would be hailed for his escapade! For all i care,the woman is aging gracefully and should av no apology for enjoying life.One thing av learnt ova the years is,women who allow culture,tradition and "what will people say ' dictate their lives do not only age faster,but live miserable lives.Ladies,be wise!

Financial independence is not enough,though it is vital:I also believe age has nothing to do with it vital questions  should be am i ready for this?Is my partner the right person for me?Will i be happy spending the rest of my life with this guy/lady?If you answer to these is YES,then you are ready to go.

Undressing in the presence of ones child should not be a big deal irrespective of their gender(when they are still very young)When my son was within age 2,3,4,i UnCloth in his presence but not anymore.I think it is good for them, as it prepares them for the future and erases whatever curiosity they may have as in "what does it look like?'

I miss her everyday.She was the perfect mum-loving,hardworking,caring and a disciplinarian.She would literally go hungry for her kids to feed and against all odds,she ensured we were all learned.She was great!

We have a serious issue here because romance is very important in a marriage;However, i do not think infidelity or taking a second wife is the solution.The first thing you need is dialogue-is there something you were doing to make your sex life great that you had stopped doing?Could it be that she is no longer in love with you?Is there a health issue?Ask questions;Get her to tell you her mind and let her know how her "coldness"is affecting your home.Be as open as possible and encourage her to be too.Wish you luck.

I honestly think this dowry of a thing is outdated;A woman is worth more than all the money and cows in this world-she is priceless and that"s how it is in my family-no bride price.

Kindhearted and loving.She was the BEST.Miss her everyday.

Larry was robust journalism personified;He will be greatly missed!

Am no longer finding the man"s grammar funny!Whats the point of big grammar wey no get meaning?Like a comedian said,let him go and campaign with his big grammar and see how many votes he will get(where votes count)I think it is an insult for the man to continue in this manner.

We may not be where we ought to be,but i think there is still hope for Nigeria;If only we would all put in a little effort and stop apportioning blame.No,Nigeria is not a failed state!

I sincerely hope she knows there is a marked difference between a political appointment and an elective post.But wait a minute,after her drama with former justice minister Aondooakaa or what"s his name,i think she is learning the ropes;I only hope she will re enact the Nafdac feat in her next political experiment because in my opinion,her tenure as info minister was not so fantastic.

Its so sad but death will come when it will come;He was indeed the fuji master!We shall no doubt miss his philosophical and spiritually laced kind of fuji music.Oh yeah,we shall sure miss the dance steps Alhaji AgbaAdieu!

PDP has murdered sleep,so what is happening should have been expected;and like they say,'you aint seen nothing yet'!

D man no doubt took you off the streets to feather his nest as it were,but one thing that gladdens my heart is,you are not thinking of going back to your former profession;I just want to encourage you to be bold-from your story,you helped him build his business to the level it is-there must definitely be a way for you to compensate yourself;pls don't allow him to intimidate you. SPEAK OUT.Learned or not,you are above all else,a human being;I pray God will send you help.

Calling a spade a spade is best;A lot of people engage in relationships for all the wrong reasons-tagging along with a guy or lady just because they are 'nice' is not a good attribute;if there is no love,there should be no basis for a relationship in the first instance.

You seem to be in love with this guy and somehow, i know how it feels;however we need to thrash a few points here-he could have lied about his age and family because he really cared about you,which is okay,after all,he eventually told the truth.The aspect am not comfortable with is the idea of his wife and kids in his family house;From experience,a man would tell you his wife is the worse thing that could ever happen to him but you know what,he would refuse to send her packing and in most cases this is because of family pressure;Where does that leave you?Let him tell you what's gonna happen to the woman if you agree to marry him;If in the event that he couldn't send her packing,are you prepared to be a second wife?I know you are not dating him for his money like some people are suggesting but you must know that being a second wife comes with its own wahala;let me add also that marrying a single guy does not automatically exempt you from marital heartache either;Annie,analyse all the suggestions NLANDERS have made and my advise is,put your happiness first.All the best.

Its high time professionals who for one reason or the other find themselves in the midst of politicians knew they would one day return to their constituencies as it were.The Aondoakaa of a man was really a disgrace to the legal profession while in office;think he got a deserving sanction;we hope to see more of such subsequently.

So two medical schools were disaccredited;One fact we must not lose sight of is,if NUC and other educational institutions regulatory bodies should beam their searchlight as they should,only a few will scale the hurdle;every year,we churn out half-baked graduates who have nothing to offer the society.its indeed a sad situation;successive governments in this country have done nothing to arrest the situation and the unfortunate thing is,the rot is not limited to the education sector-it cuts across all sectors.

The statusquo is fast changing!The earlier the african men woke up to this reality the better for them and their families;Leave the Shagayas and Ita-giwas aside and fastwind to the Dora Akunyilis,the Okonjo-iwealas and the like-while the earlier group are single parents,the other group is made up of equally successful women who have managed to keep their homes;My take is,the affluence or success of a woman should not break her home.The bottom line is for the woman to recognise the 'headship' of the man on the homefront.Also, its important for our men to get off their high horses,shun their inferiority complex and give their wives the needed support.If only we knew half the story of these single women of substance-majority were frustrated out of their matrimonial homes by husbands who were not comfortable with their wives success.Men really need to change their outlook!

Insecurity/emotional instability.

he was a pathological liar and swindler!

Think its better to follow ones heart, than for fear of what people will say,end up with a man one will wake up every morn,regretting marrying.

Love must be mutual,else one of the parties would 'suffer'.For this reason,i'll prefer that we both love ourselves.

Still asking myself why.

Dating a man, married or not for material security ,is not the same as dating a man who will not marry one;Much as i dont subscribe to 'bed hopping' for survival,i think one can date anyone, so long as they 'connect'.A man would not come up to you proposing marriage-there should be a build up to that.Even at that,is it every relationship that must end in marriage?

Love can be blissful at any point in time- its a matter of what you choose to make of your relationship;They say experience is the best teacher,but i will add,'for those who are willing to learn'.Choice is everything.

Are we not all laughing?Yeah,finding ourselves at the mercy of power wielding men who have nothing good to offer Nigerians calls for laughter if we are not to "kill' ourselves with worry;Take a hard look at our political landscape and tell me what best to do but laugh;IBB, OBJ,ATIKU,GEJ, pray,are they all not contributors to the terrible political climate in the country today?Can OBJ do better than the last time when he imposed an ailing man on us?Lets keep laughing joo!

The girl is simply obbsesed and to be sincere with you,the simple thing to do is send her packing;am sure she would blame it on love but man,this aint no love;its immaturity and stupidity rolled in one!
