OK o. But is it true that Yoruba women marry Yoruba men in order to avoid speaking English language at home? Somebody just informed me. .
yes. I want to come home and really feel at home. Let English language remain within the confines of the office. At home, it's Yoruba all the way. This was the only reason I didn't marry my Igbo classmate.

Hmm. I met him in person once. He had a peculiar obsession for properties.

I knew it. I knew he must have been overworked. I helped him source forceps from Lagos a few weeks ago. He really wanted those forceps and was glad when he got them.

I lost a great customer. Nigeria has lost one of her finest. Rip Dr. Egigba. Will miss you.

Sad and painful. No woman deserves this kind of death
HealthRe: Doctor Collapses And Dies While On Duty In Benin Hospital. Photos by bookishme:
What!? Dr Egigba ke? Ahh what is this!!! I have never met him in person but he was a very good customer of mine. He bought medical books from me online. He also loved books on history. I observed he was one doctor that loved to upgrade his knowledge.

Later, he would ask me to help him buy surgical equipment that he couldn't get in Benin. He was really passionate about his profession and seemed like someone who would go all out to help his patient.

He contacted me a few weeks back that he needed forceps for a particular surgery. Though I didn't know anything about medical equipment, I was willing to help cos from the way he talked, he needed them urgently for the surgery. So I went to the dealers, connected with him on Whatsapp and showed him each of the forceps they offered. He would tell me "no" that's not what I want". We went through this together for about 3hours on a Saturday morning.

Eventually I got a full set that met his specifications and was ready to ship them. Again he said "no", one set is useless in theatre, we would need 2". I continued my search for the second set until I got them and shipped all to him.

At some point, even the dealers were fed up with his specifications and I jokingly said to him "Now I wish I was a doctor". He laughed and replied "Not too late". He seemed like a workaholic, a doctor who went all out for his patients. He must have been overworked.

After all said and done, I told him I was going to launch a personal shopper business based on the Saturday purchase experience and would need references from him. He said no problem.

Rip in peace, Dr. Egigba. Nigeria has just lost one of her finest. You are celebrated even in death. May God uphold your family and grant them the fortitude to bear this loss. You have made heaven!

Please put a finer picture.

Neither. Useful content is the key. I mean providing information to questions/issues that a lot of people are searching for.

I remember their wedding. It was the talk of the town. Ovation magazine dedicated an entire edition to them. An American artiste (cant remember the name now) was brought in by the hubby for a surprise performance.

Marriage is a mystery.

It's a terrible world for teachers out there, Don't assume teachers in Lagos are enjoying too but packaging is everything.
Let ur wife find a product she can sell,let her visit Idumota for wholesale purchase,no one will insult her in her biz.
exactly. Let her go to Balogun/Martins/Oluwole in Lagos and buy children school shoes at wholesale prices. She will resell them in Makogi and make a decent profit.
