Hypocritical statement. If the ECOWAS protocol and the Nigerian constitution allows for free movement of citizens, goods and services, tell me why alcohol is seized and destroyed in Northern states practicing Sharia Law.

Properties / Re: My Family Now Homeless - Man Whose ₦300m Mansion Was Pulled Down In Lagos by brownlolly(m): 10:41pm On Nov 24, 2023
I read something about the property land reclaimed from a swampy area. Why isn't anyone talking about that? That is a waterway, that was sand-filled, and the implication os that is blockage of drainage which causes flooding and displaces people from their homes.

Without question, the house shouldn't have been built without proper documentation.

Family / Re: My 17 Year Old Niece Is Addicted To Porn - Should I Intervene by brownlolly(m): 11:51pm On Jul 13, 2023
questioner:
My mum has people staying with her - my niece, an extended family member and a close family friend and her daughter.
We are okay with it cos it ensures she always has company and reduces the need to always travel to check on her.


Recently the monthly subscription I do on the router at home, which usually has carry over data by the time it expires, now lasts about a week before they start calling me to renew
Everybody in the house denied being the cause of the data drain.


Last week, I came to spend some days at my mum's and first thing I did was to install a network tracker to monitor.
Long story short, I discovered the excessive consumption was from my niece but that's not the major issue.
She was visiting porn sites which was draining data but that's still not the major prob.
My problem was the frequency and how long she spent on porn daily.


The day I came, after she retreated to her room, the porn streaming started and didn't stop until the family member sharing a room with her came back at night.
The next morning once the other lady left for work, she continued with the porn until it was time to leve for her lessons.
Once she came back in the afternoon, she did some chores, ate, sat around the sitting room for a while and went inside
and boom the porn resumed until the other girl came around hours later. This was practically the routine for the 4 days I stayed there.


The day I was to leave I told my mum that I observed the drain came from my niece and blocked her from the router.
She called my niece and questioned her but she denied knowing anything about it, I spared her blushes by saying sometimes apps have background processes that consume data without the owner knowing.


Ever since, I have been wondering if I handled the situation properly.
I didn't confront her about it cos I was concerned about the embarrassment she will feel for a male family to find out about her secret.
She might even assume I have told my mum or my elder bro (her dad), which might weigh her down emotionally.


Also, I am concerned if this is a sign of promiscuity, she will be 17 next month And aside the fact that she's quite tall, she might as well pass for a 14 year old. She's barely endowed for her age- bottomline, not the kind of girl, you will associate with waywardness.

My question is
1. Would it have been better if I had confronted her
2. Is this a possible sign of promiscuity ? - if so, I will suggest mum sends her back to her Dad cos I am not sure at her advanced age
she should be dealing with issues like this, to avoid stories that touch later on

Speaking to her about it is the best solution. It is very hard to break away from porn addiction. For some, it's like a drug, and it takes someone who has been in such helpless situations to help those who are just starting life and getting exposed to porn. But you have to be mindful of the way you talk to her. No threats, no insults, no religious talk. Just speak with understanding and caution. Sit her down. Help her relax and let her know that you are aware of what she has been doing. Is she denies it, don't confront her. Just present the facts. Talk to her about the dangers of pornography. I know a few. Lack of focus, exposure to masturbation which could lead to sexual addiction, and lack of confidence and social skills. it gets worse as they age.

Please speak to her like an adult. No chastisement. Just education about the dangers. And don't tell anyone else please. Help her build confidence and trust in you.

Politics / Re: Atiku Abubakar Files Petition To Challenge Tinubu's Electoral Victory by brownlolly(m): 9:24am On Mar 22, 2023
Oil de your head Sir.

More anointing!!

akingangan:
Tinubu the master strategist will now get in the mud with Atiku and Peter Obi.

Watch as Peter Obi's scam of investing government money in personal business is officially dealt with.

Watch as Atiku's appropriating Nigeria's assets is brought forward.

Tinubu was just an accountant
World leaders that admitted to use of drugs include Obama, Bush, Boris Johnson and many more



Tinubu is such a genius.
He could have given countless responses when the hateful campaign of Peter Obi kept using the drug case to campaign and discredit Tinubu.
He literally gave them the silent treatment such as is advised when a court case is going on to avoid self-implicating.

Defense
1. He was not convicted
2. He was not found to deal drugs, he was an accountant that was likely paid with drug money from a client
3. You cannot stand trial for the same offense in two courts in different countries.
4. Out of Jurisdiction - If a crime was committed it was not in Nigeria and no court had prosecuted him for that in Nigeria

Now
Tinubu himself said he was a security doorman in Chicago while he was a student at Chicago State University.
It is very likely that he had acquaintances that would have used his service. This was Chicago in the 70s and 80s!

Redemption
After that, he worked as Accountant at Deloitte the number one accounting firm in the world,
He has been a Senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria,
He has been Governor of Lagos state
He has been Freedom Fighter who fought the military to bring democracy to Nigeria

Tinubu's house was blown up by the military and that is the reason he does not have old pictures.
He was penniless at some point and granted asylum to the UK with a Visa on a piece of paper(Not a Passport)


For Peter Obi to have added the drug case to the presidential petition is just spiteful.

Peter Obi has cases to answer about
1. The people that were killed in his state whose bodies were dumped in Ezu River while he was governor which led to Endsars (Ironically Endsars supporters were brainwashed to become his supporter as obidient movement)

2. The money he took from Anambra and invested in his private business making beer
3. The Pandora paper which shows his tax evasion as a sitting governor hiding money in Panama

You no even mention Kanuri lol

DMCA:


And you think peter obi is the one, when it is clear what he and igbo are about is the IGBO AGENDA.


Let me tell you, the only thing that gave peter Obi relevance is because Tinubu was foolish to accept the muslim muslim ticket option given to him as he thought it would be his chance of gathering northern votes which he was wrong.

Thus it became a Christian/ muslim thing.


Majority of Christians not willing to vote a muslim muslim ticket. Then IPOB and BIAFRA agitators seize this opportunity to make it an IGBO agenda thing.


Imagine an igbo man feeling entitled that it is Igbos turn to be president. Who made it so? How many tribes do we have in Nigeria, 300+


They behave as if it is only the Hausa/Fulani, Yoruba and Igbo that exist.

What about the Itsekiri, the ibibio, the kuteb, the idoma, the Angas, the Nupe, the Etulo, the Jukun, the Tiv etc....


Nonsense

Happened to me. Spent over a year. If you can get garlic, ginger, and turmeric, dice them into little bits, and mix them together. Take a spoon every morning. It helps to purify your system. Also maintain proper hygiene. It may take a while, but it will surely disappear. Lastly, use dove cream bar.

Exactly my point. She too knows why the mother made that statement.

The mother is not against her progress. She only wished the other Sister got the job because she feels shes more generous than op. But op decided to make it seem like the mother is against her progress. Lol..

Family / Re: Who Can Relate To This.. My Mom Is A Toxic Person by brownlolly(m): 10:52am On Oct 16, 2021
It's unfortunate that some people don't have good experiences with their mothers. It's a bit easier if it was from the father, but I can confidently tell you that many people out there reverence their fathers than their mothers. That's their truth. Not all mothers have shown love to their children. Some kids don't understand the concept of love because of the missing emotional support their mothers never gave them.

It is a psychological battle they'll firght as long as they live. Forgiveness is not an issue. The problem is reoccurrence...over and over again. Until the day she snaps and does something then you same people will say she shouldn't have done it.

OP, please your mental health is more important than your mother. Yes, I said it! Leave the house if you have to. Push her away from you until she realizes that she has done damage to your psyche. Maybe your siblings will try to reconcile you guys back...and I hope you get along well with the rest of your family.

Know that you are not alone in this situation. Myy mother doesn't reek of toxicity in that pattern...it's somewhat different, but I can relate with your story. I understand you perfectly, and I won't judge you. Protect your mental health. God bless.

He cannot sha chase them out. Na the man cause am from the beginning, maybe he made his parents think it is only his money he was using. So how do you expect the parents to behave if he gave them the impression that it was all his money from the start. Because his parents seem like good people, for them to have actually built the house up to that stage. Also, this is the first person I’m meeting not considering putting his parents in his plans and planning a permanent accommodation for them while making plans of a permanent accommodation for himself and his immediate family. Na the man’s fault. He should have discussed everything with his wife from the beginning.

Anyway, as the situation is right now, maybe they need to talk to someone their parents will listen to, a pastor or someone else. Let the person talk to his parents. I wish him all the best

I wouldn’t. But you need to understand that there are irresponsible parents too. There are many irresponsible parents as much as there are responsible ones. So that your parents are responsible, you should appreciate them.

Very good. Actions have consequences. Imagine the pressure the man is facing now. His marriage is also at stake if you haven't considered it too cos I am quite certain that the wife would have some resentment towards their action...and when she misbehaves later they'll start calling her a bad woman.

Let them respect themselves and leave the house. That's the first thing they should do before they should even be considered.

Your parents had a choice not to cut their dreams. They had a choice not to take care of you. They had a choice not to put in the effort to make you a responsible person in the society but they chose to do all these things for you. If they didn’t do anything to make you responsible, nothing would have happened too.
You need to appreciate God for giving you good parents and you need to appreciate your parents for being good parents. You owe them gratitude all the time because if not for them and God, it could have been a completely different story.

I'll ask you a simple question. Would you do all these things you mentioned to your own kids when (if) you have any?
Family / Re: My Parents Move In To My Ongoing New House Without My Consent by brownlolly(m): 10:36am On Oct 04, 2021
This thread makes me sick to my stomach.

Many people are being emotional about this.

Your parents should not have moved into your house. They should have asked for one from you since they didn't plan well enough to have their own house.

For those saying your parents suffered to raise you yenyenyen....total balderdash! They brought you to this world. They should have planned their lives well and maybe they wouldn't have suffered.

Adults should learn to take responsibility for their own lives first and foremost. Anything your child does for you should be considered as extra. You brought them to this world. They are your responsibility.
