Welcome to the tax regime.

Old habits are hard to overcome.You might be surprised to know that your mum maybe away of your Dad's issues with women; typical of a Nigerian woman to stay in marriage because of her children.

Instead of telling your mother about it,talk to your Dad. Let him know respectfully how disappointed you're, and that you would want him to change. Don't shout at him or insult him(African Father's have pride).

Men, please let's do better. Those things you do in secret,one day your children may get to know about it, and just like the OP they won't feel happy about it. Be a good model to them.

This is true,some ladies have bad taste when it comes to choosing a life partner. They use their early twenties to play around with jokers and wants to start being serious when they are now getting older.

Unfortunately,not all of them are lucky to correct their mistakes on time,some regret it for the rest of their lives.

South East have become a hotbed of crime. Criminals now have more control than the Government in the State.

FG and the state governments should collaborate to flush out these criminal elements in SE states.

South Africans have this complex about them;that they think they are better than other black nations. They're always hostile and rude when talking about other African countries.

When the people are tired of corruption they will revolt, and not even gun or bullet can stop them. I pray everything is restored to Normalcy in Mozambique,as the leaders do the right thing.

Should it be that they used substandard building materials? Thank God for the safety of the workers. Government should investigate this to know the reason for the sudden collapse.

if she had spent the money,Una go call her thief. now she had returned it and people are still foaming in the mouth.Why don't you people go verify if she's lying.

Nigerians are used to corrupt politicians that they think everything is a lie.

Sapasenator:
Where is that Aunt now?

She's enjoying her money in Abj. She's a big shot.

I hated Christmas as a kid. I lived with my wicked rich aunt that doesn't care about me. Christmas was a nightmare for me, as I was always busy cleaning the house everyday and washing plates.

Different visitors would come and i would serve them, worst is that my aunt would disgrace me in front of her visitors. It is a terrible memory for me, except for one particular Christmas that I was allowed to visit my village with my parents.

I am free now, financially stable but still not excited about Christmas. That's why I always try to make it memorable for my kids.

He's a performing minister,but his arrogance and his high handedness is the problem he has.

I have a cousin,he is so brilliant and cute ,but he lacks confidence while talking even with his fellow men. He's an extreme introvert. He hardly makes friends, and no gf

Back to you question. There are so many things that can attract the opposite gender to you beside looks and appearance. A girl may like an ugly guy because of his confidence and charisma. His ability to solve problems and to be on top of the situation.

Work on yourself especially your mindset and see things change.

This is not going well, and thank God you know it. A lady threatening you with break up is bad, such a person will threaten you with divorce when you're eventually married to her.

It is obvious she has anger issue, or she's looking for a way to opt out of this relationship. It is better at this point you people go for a break, so that everyone will think about this carefully,if they will continue or not.

My honest view is that this is a red flag that must not be ignored. But then you didn't give enough information to ascertain why she could be talking this way.

Thanks for helping her.

I remember back in Uni, a student pastor just finished cooking this lovely jellof rice. The aroma was so nice and inviting. Pastor went Into his room to bring a plate to dish his food, only to meet an empty pot. Just 3 mins of walking into his room to get plate and this happened.

It wasn't funny that afternoon. That someone will steal another person's food. Say what you want,but if you're the one you may do worse. I wish somebody can help this Pastor.

I believe this is not the first time the church will be organising such event to help the needy, so I guess they had more people that came that they could control.

"Whoever isolates himself seeks his own desire and rages against all wise judgement" Proverb 18:1

I had this same discussion with my wife of how some churches cuts people off from associating with people who are not their members.

She told me of how her uncle pulled out from his kinsmen's meeting, because according to the church he attended ,they said he should not be unequally yoked with unbelievers.

These people forget that even in the Bible Jesus mingled with all, he even went into the house of a Samaritan even when Jews despised Samaritans. He didn't conform to their ways tho,but by associating with them he was able to preach the message of the kingdom to them and many believed in him.

It is good that you have noticed the mistakes made by your parents and you are working hard not to repeat this same mistakes, however,I think they gave you a good heritage of knowing God at an early age in your life, please don't depart from the Godly path. Sustain it even as you work on improving your social life

It is a pity that he ended his life so quick, because of a lady who doesn't deserve him.

Guys, be rational even in love.

You don't need to force anyone to identify with you, whatever they want to believe,leave it to them.

In their heart they know if they're being truthful or lying to themselves. Though I think there are some political undertone to this .

Rice and chicken, with very chilled juice. Merry Christmas to all!

Nigerian police will even parade you before taking you to court. Crime doesn't pay,no matter the motivation.

It is looking like the deceased wife has some questions to answer, because why is she holding on to the corpse? While there are many celebrated marriages between Nigeria and SA nationals , some didn't end well like this .

Thank God for his safe return. There's a 32year old missing dude I saw on a banner along Ago Palace. His family are willing to pay 5 Million naira to whoever would help in finding him.

I pray he would be found too.

IF telling another the truth is being judgmental then I am guilty. Hope you're now happy. The reason why I will always speak the truth is because I see many lives destroyed by these wild fantasies. We are free to do anything, but we can't choose the consequences. have a lovely day.

What right do you have to judge another couples marriage and what works for them?

And this is a country where women are abused and sexually repressed and can be legally raped by a husband and he's not punished for it

Grow up you utter asshole and get a proctologist to remove your brains from your ass

Sex is than more fun and pleasure, it is a gateway to exchanges of different sorts in the spirit. In fact part of some demonic worship includes orgies and revelries.

I can tell you that these fantasies of hers are heavily influenced by the consumption of pornographic contents, which deceives many to accept the lies they are been sold as the told. It may not be her fault for being this way, but it would be disastrous to marry such a person. This is the reason why some ladies and guys are never satisfied no matter what their partner do, because they are yoked with a spirt of lust and sexual immorality.

I am really surprised that you are not seeing this as a reflag, except in fact you conform to her way of thinking.

lastly, you cannot build a marriage with someone whose heart is in different places; I mean it is obvious that she's longing for some thing that only you cannot not give. so please think twice before ending up with somebody that will make you regret tomorrow.

I use to hate my Dad a lot while growing up, for sending me out to live with his wicked sister, for not supporting me financially even when he could give the little he had. For allowing my Mum to carry the full burden of the family, even though he was the man.

My anger was so much that I hardly called him on the phone in those days. until God healed me.

We can't choose our fathers, they are given to us by God.
It easy to repeat the mistakes made by our parents if we don't guard our heart and mind against their errors. In fact people who despised their fathers ended up being like their fathers.
See it that you were sent to correct the errors you see in your family, and you can't do that by hating anyone.
There are somethings you will lambast your father for now, until you too will become a father and understand the magnitude of the challenges they faced raising you. E,g some of them were victims of bad upbringing and parental neglects, and some how they grew up to believe that that was the best way to raise a child(If they Know better they will do better).

Love and forgive them. Also pray for them.

This sit-at-home thingy makes no sense at all. Can someone tell me what the organizers have achieved so far since implementing this strategy?
Instead they are destroying commercial activities in the SE. Many businesses are relocating out of the SE, and many violators have been killed in gruesome manner. Organizers of this should scrap this and brainstorm on better ways of pressing on their demands for the release of MNK.

In Lagos the story is different, everything that looks like chicken; whether small, malnourished or big are sold between 25k-30k.

The Nigerian brand of politics is dirty. Even human lives are politicized.

I have not pity for fools who think they are smart. She just got served. She would have done worse if she were in the guy's shoe.

Sometimes "discipline beats intelligence". Somethings are not meant for us not matter how much we try, so it is better we find where we fit in,in life and and align.

These guys are a big embarrassment to Igbos.
