Funny thing is same logic applies to all the other occurrences, they can have 10 children and all are AA or AS. Life isn't only black we should not gloss over the white parts because we are scared of the dark parts

That's why I adviced him to transfer his risk. If he has a strong risk appetite he wouldn't come to this platform for opinions. Life is not a game of kalo-kalo especially a game that can be avoided.

I don't know if it's only me or there are others that doesn't feel we have a president. I still feel and have this Buhari "aura" and perhaps cabal running Nigeria.

Seriously speaking, something seems amiss in the political and governance space. I'm not sure if the larger Nigerian society accept this government.

Perception is everything!

Dollar don reach #1000 now even under the porpurted experts called "Emi lo kan". I guess law of Natural justice will visit us all irrespective of our party affiliations.

What we ordered vs what we got.....Brace, brace, brace......we are ditching so fast now.

I am not writing this for religious people to come with their funny talks, I am just putting this out here to hear from people who might have tried this methods or who heard about this methods and still proceeded or did not. I want to hear your experience. I have been dating someone for 5 years now, it happened that I began to see her as someone I would want to spend my life with. Last year we did our genotype test and we were both AS. Now , I know some of you will say this should be the first thing you ask when you meet someone but c’mon, would you say people in university that are dating now, would ask their sef that question? That theory is only feasible when you are single and ready to get married and want to start a new relationship, then you can always ask, but we all know some of our relationships started when we no Dey even see marriage in the nearest future, all of a sudden you just see them as the right person and you take the bold step. Now, I had to meet my family doctor here in Canada, I explained to him my current situation and he referred me to a GENETIC COUNSELOR. I am trying to take the necessary steps cause I am not ready to bring in a child with Sickle cell to this world, and I am not leaving anything to faith. A fone appointment was set with the counselor and we spoke at length. She told me that in every foetus, there is a 25% chance that we can get an SS child. Now , how do we mitigate this percentage to the barest minimum I asked as I am not even ready to bring in a sickler to this world. She gave me three options, I would rather say two because the last involves test when the baby comes, and that is out of the question.

Option 1:
A) CVS: They take a sample of the fluid in the womb through her vagina, at 12 weeks to test, if it’s good then fine, if not we have to terminate.

OR

B) At 16 weeks, they take the fluid using a needle directly from her womb, and if it’s SS , they terminate. Both procedures are cover by the government and we don’t need to pay a dime.

Now, she assured me that abortion is a very safe procedure if done properly, and it is even a bigger risk that one can die from a penicillin injection or carrying a pregnancy to term than any harm during an abortion.I know many people would come here and say abortion is this and that but let us be frank to ourselves. If you were told that the child in your womb would have cerebral palsy, or Down syndrome or a neurological disorder, would you still keep that pregnancy? Is there a 100% assurance that two AA people would give birth to a healthy baby? I have come to a realization that pregnancy is just a risk that people take, cus you really don’t know how your child would turn out.


Option 2:
PGD. This is just like IVF, where they would select the genotype before they insert back to the womb. She told me the government doesn’t cover this, and it could cost between $10K- $40k. However she mentioned, just like IVf, it is not guaranteed as it can fail and your money is gone.

I discussed this with my girl in Nigeria and she said she was fine with option 1a. I then asked her, that if the first, second are SS would she still remove it. She accepted. I would not lie to you, this girl is everything I want in a woman. I am not just looking at just love because I know love fades with time, but she is a really nice person, and has a good character. She has always been like this from my days in Nigeria because I was with her before I moved outside. Now after finding out our genotype, I tried to get into a relationship with AA. The first one Dey nigeria, she is a nice person, beautiful, but I just didn’t like her or feel attracted to her. She got tire and we just free ourselves, the second one is here in Canada, I just don’t like this one . Please note, I never slept with any of these ladies because I feel it’s not fair.


Now my question is for those who knew all this and still proceeded, how did it work out for you?

I repeat, don’t come here to tell me about how abortion is this and dat. Cus I know if they tell any of you that your child would be abnormal, 90% of you will go for the abortion

I could see you've been doing research on your own. In all, you never detached your emotion from your research which is making you to think you can gamble it. Yeah, almost everything in life is risky that's why you have to make an informed decision.

If you know anything about "risk-management" whether in business or any other spheres of life, you would know that the best way to manage risk is to "transfer" it. And broadly speaking now, you're both a risk to one another.

The 25% explanation is often misunderstood. You can have 10 children and all the 10 can be SS. You have to err on the side of caution. It will only pain you for 5 or 10years max if you allow her to go elsewhere and you look for someone else that you're compatible with.

Absuchat:
This nincompoop always romancing the military... Obviously trying to pacify them against coup... Forgetting that he will soon be thrown out of office by the judiciary

Nincompoop is a strong word ooo. You don't want DSS to be on your trail ooo.

TemplarLandry:
The man is the culprit.

Explain better

Iamzik:
Emm I thought APC people said its bullet train. Why are you downgrading our train?🤣🤣

Ok, it's a locomotive bullet train then.

It's the people that keep voting for these career politicians I blame. They have schemed the system against the common man. If they are not there, their children, allies, cronies or concubines will be there.

I've not used the New Nigeria Locomotive.

ratiani6:
Which kind mugu be this? How God take dey bless person pass like this?

So, it is God that would have cursed the owner of the money too if we go by your explanation.

Why not see it from the angle that the Supreme being is preparing her track for something more bigger and lasting?

Simply the Best......Tina Turner

Go to Facebook and see comments from some so called igbos hailing them and supporting the UGM.
Simon Ekpa himself is Igbo. Why are you blaming others?

They are killing and destroying themselves. In Obj's voice...."The task of keeping Nigeria one, is a job that must be done"

kernniejay:
I don't think that they dilute their fuel with water. What happens in most cases is that when rain falls, water gets into their underground fuel storage if it's not properlly sealed, their fuel pump will suck the mixture and nozzle will dispense both water and fuel into vehicles' fuel tank.
No filling station will intentionally dilute fuel with water, such will damage customers' car now and not only will they lose customers, their reputation will also go for it and they may be sued for a very serious criminal offence.

The filling station will be damaged too if they add water.

xristos:
dont be quick to use the word scam...it's just an advert attention

It's just a play too.

SMHFU?

Abeg, writers should stop fueling the fire on this young girl. She has accepted her stupidity and came to realise her real score is 249 which is also a very good result.

Let's leave this case with the appropriate authority to handle.

I see youths whose future are been mortgage supporting and defending all these career politicians.

Idan abi Adan don land?

Yeah... ALL IGBOS!

Still from Nigeria!

O pari. No more Gala and Lacasera inside traffic on Third Mainland Bridge and Eko Bridge. Our Lagos, Our Rules!
Itesiwaju Ilu Eko, ajumoşe gbogbo wa ni o.

This is the best time to invest in Lagos and Yorubaland if you don't hate and resent your Yoruba hosts. The Yoruba and Yorubaland will bless you, your family and your investments!

Invest in Lagos today with a good patriotic heart and not with a heart full of hatred and bigotry against your host so you will not lose everything you bring to Yorubaland.

God bless Lagos state and may God bless Nigeria for ever!

jeromestarks:
Do u wish ur male child marry a woman who is in her 30s or in her 40s?

When you were in you teens or early 20s, do you pray to marry at the age of 30 and above? Is it not stupidity that kept you single to this age? Is it not the same stupidity that will make you choose any man that comes your way now ( why won't you? When you have pushed all good men away from your life when you thought you have time. Now your time is passed. You're angry at the truth).
Do u pray for you daughters to be singing at the age of 30?

How old was your mother when she birthed you?

SMHFU!

sobhladi:
Is Marriage supposed to be for everyone?

For now, how society stigmatises. But soon we will get to that level of free society.

Jogs1900:
Most are from a particular region. It was from that region I saw a university graduate that couldn't write a complete sentence.smh

Yeah....all are from Nigeria!

Zuckerberg seems greedy to me. He wants to take it all. He owns Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, now he covets Twitter.

They are all products under "Meta".

Do you know how many products "Alphabet" has?

Festus Okoye can do that easily with his loud mouth.

Biodun556:



Mmesoma Ejikeme's first choice is Unilag.

Her second choice is LASU

Her third choice is LASPOTECH

All these institutions are in Lagos.

She completely ignored all universities in Southeast.

She wants to study in an environment where there is no sit at home.

SMHFU!

Shooo......

Do it inside your room and send the video to Guiness na.

dominique:
What kind of invitation is that, so they expect a criminal to submit herself to the police on his own? Is it until he physically harm his victims before they organise a manhunt and apprehend him?

His picture is out there on display. Submission is a tactical move from police. You can bet they are already trailing/looking for him. You should join them in looking for him too.

Tob456:
I have a 7 months old daughter her mother is an orphan, she is the eldest of 7.

We broke up when she was pregnant because we had a disagreement about her siblings living arrangements.

She wanted her 4 sisters to stay with us after the wedding and I only two of them to stay with us. The problem is seeing my daughter growing in a bad environment away from me makes me feel so bad.

Whenever I visit her I feel so bad leaving her behind that I don't sleep well thinking about her all night.

I also doesn't like the idea of having kids with different mothers.

For my daughter's sake I want to get back with her mother for us to raise her together in the same house. But getting back with her means that I should also allow her 4 siblings to stay with us after the wedding.

I am doing this for my daughter's sake but I don't know if I am making a wise decision.

What do you guys think should I get back with her or forget about her and concentrate only on my daughter.

Please help

You will regret it. Don't bring them to your place. Even bringing just one is difficult to accept for me. I can bet you one or more from the four will either set you up or tarnish your reputations.

Interesting....!

If I were her I will not cook any food that will involve me using too much energy especially any food that will involve the use of spatula or "turni-gari"
The more energy you can save, the longer hours you can stay in the cookaton.

Just give me a nice music playing in the background, and people should be ready to eat lots of noodles.
