Family › Re: What Do We Really Need Polygamy For? by casualobserver:

Polygamy is not to benefit women rather it is men selfishness''
Man’s selfishness is being married and having side chicks knowing if your side chick is a decent woman she won’t want a child out of wedlock for a married man. All the benefits of polygamy without the responsibilities.

It’s the women and the children they may bear that lose out in the long run.

Monogamy is the reason there are so many single mature ladies 95% of whom will either never get a man to marry them, have children of their own or both.

Polygamy is actually bad for men because they have to take full responsibility for what they are doing while officially monogamous.

Men are polygamous by nature. Monogamy just means we continue to act polygamous and avoid responsibility.

talented321:
Normally i like the idea of polygamy but on second thought, what are the reason for engaging in polygamy? because
1. The target is to born 2 to 6 children'' and i think one woman can born such amount of children except life circumstances.
* And i think one understanding woman is better than two troublesome wives''
* And i don't think sex is am enough reason to take another wife, except your present woman is giving a tough time for D sex
Pls experience elders in the house what are the benefits of polygamy when somebody has an understanding woman.
Pls is for men''
The benefit in polygamy is for women who would otherwise be single and their children that would have been bastards or raised in single mother homes. Our brainwashed women would rather be baby mamas and side chicks praying for the monogamous husband that will never come.

We men will continue to help misguided womenfolk to promote monogamy so we can have all the benefits of polygamy without the commitment.

True, but they also do sell a lot of Nigerian made goods (their soft drinks are all made in Nigeria, the bread and other foodstuff are made on site in Nigeria).
I said most of their products, They also had a lot of imported drinks.

What always irked me whenever I went to shop rite was seeing realizing they were basically using shop rite to create a market for South African goods.

Bottom line is there is nothing positive shop rite brings to our economy. To make matters worse they repatriate their profits and put pressure on the Naira. All least Nigeria. Importers keep their profits In the country

90% of the products in shop rite are imported goods, many of them sourced or manufactured/produced in South Africa.

My advice to you is to read up on France’s stranglehold of its former colonies because even without Nigerias intervention the desire of French speaking Africa to decouple from France could bring world war 3 to our door step. At least you owe it to yourself to know what the war is really about.

A summit of the French and all African governments was supposed to prepare the way to a new kind of relationship, but it had to be postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The plan was to discuss projects and solutions for building sustainable cities and regions in Africa, so as to meet the challenges posed by the massive urbanization in the coming decades.

Nathalie Yamb is skeptical."Françafrique, Afrique-France - you can play with words, but it doesn't change the system," she said. In her opinion, relations between France and the French-speaking African countries have deteriorated further under the present French president. "I even think Emmanuel Macron is one of the worst president in that sense, that he's actually like [former French President Charles] de Gaulle. He's actually not hiding his will to forcefully maintain the relationship between Africa and France."

Small progress

Caroline Roussy agrees that the president made some mistakes when he first came into office. "For instance, when he convened the presidents of the G5 Sahel instead of going to see them." But he also took positive action, Roussy adds. "He placed Rwandan Foreign Minister Louise Mushikiwabo at the head of the International Organization of Francophonie and promised to return most of the African artifacts stored in French museums.

"If France loses Africa, France is nothing", Yamb counters. "Macron is trying to impose on Africa a relationship that Africans no longer want," she maintains. As an example, she points out the recent agreement between France and eight members of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) on replacing the CFA franc with a new West African single currency called Eco.

"The Eco is a very old Ecowas project, which France has decided to hijack. They say they're changing the system, but they're only changing the name," Yamb said. "It must be an initiative of an African government. It can't be announced, designed or planned by France."

Africa first

According to the agreement, the Central Bank of West African States (BCEAO) will no longer have to deposit half of its foreign exchange reserves with the Banque de France as was the case until now. However, the fixed parity with the euro will be maintained, allegedly to prevent inflation. At least this will put an end to remittances from Africa to France. But it will not enable an African independent monetary policy.

In the past, African countries paid up to 65% of their foreign exchange reserves into the French treasury. "It sounds incredible but African governments don't know how much money in the treasury belongs to each individual country," says researcher Ian Taylor. He accuses France of re-declaring African money as development aid for the original depositors, thereby projecting its power in the region.

"The CFA has to go. It is such a ridiculous neo-colonial stunt by the French that it should have gone 60 years ago. The first step is to try to kill CFA, to try to actually move towards true independence for Francophone Africa, which would basically kill Françafrique", Taylor sums up. 60 years after independence, the francophone countries need African elites who are prepared to put Africa first.

MALI HAS JUST DEFINITIVELY PUT AN END TO ITS DEPENDENCE ON FRANCE
BY CANCELING THE 11 COLONIAL AGREEMENTS IMPOSED ON AFRICAN COUNTRIES SINCE 1960.

BREAKING OF THE COLONIAL AGREEMENTS WITH FRANCE. I INVITE YOU TO UNDERSTAND THE MALIAN CASE AGAINST IMPERIALIST FRANCE🇫🇷

After independence, 14 French-speaking countries signed 11 agreements with France which are as follows :

AGREEMENT n⁰1:

THE COLONIAL DEBT TO REPAY THE BENEFITS OF COLONIZATION.

That is to say that the newly independent states must reimburse the cost of the infrastructures built by France during the colonization.
We are always looking for the details of the costs, the evaluation of the benefits and the payment conditions imposed by France on African countries.

AGREEMENT N⁰ 2 :

THE AUTOMATIC CONFISCATION OF NATIONAL FINANCIAL RESERVES.

That is to say that African countries must deposit their financial reserves with the Banque de France. Thus, France has been "guarding" the financial reserves of fourteen African countries since 1961: Benin, Burkina Faso, Guinea Bissau, Ivory Coast, Mali, Niger, Senegal, Togo, Cameroon, the Central African Republic, Chad, Congo-Brazzaville, Equatorial Guinea and Gabon.

Thus, the governance of monetary policies remains asynchronous and incomplete due to the fact that it is managed directly by the French government, without any link with the financial authorities of countries such as ECOWAS or CEMAC.

Thus, due to the conditions that bind the banks of the 14 countries of the CFA economic and financial zones, they are obliged to keep 65% of their foreign exchange reserves in an operations account maintained by the French Treasury, as well as an additional 20% in order to cover "financial risks".

In addition, the banks of the CFA zones impose a credit limit on each member country, equivalent to 20% of state revenues in the current budget year, although the BEAC or the BCEAO have higher withdrawal possibilities from the French Treasury. These withdrawals must first be the subject of the agreement of the French Treasury.
The final decision therefore rests with the French Treasury, which has itself invested the reserves of African countries on the Paris stock exchange.

In other words, 85% of African financial reserves are deposited in an operation account controlled by the French administration.

The two banks in the CFA zone are African by their names, but do not decide any of the monetary policies by themselves.
The worst thing is that the countries themselves do not even know how much of their financial reserves are due to them.

AGREEMENT n⁰3 :

THE RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL ON ANY RAW OR NATURAL RESOURCE DISCOVERED IN THE COUNTRY.

That is to say that France has the first right to purchase the natural resources of the land of its former colonies. It is only after France has said: "I am not interested", that African countries are allowed to look for other partners.

AGREEMENT n⁰4 :

PRIORITY TO FRENCH INTERESTS AND COMPANIES IN PUBLIC PROCUREMENT AND PUBLIC TENDERS.

In the awarding of public contracts, French companies have priority over tenders. Even if African countries can get better value for money elsewhere.

As a result, in most of the former French colonies, all the economic levers of the countries are in the hands of French expatriates. In Côte d'Ivoire, for example, French companies own and control all major public services including water, electricity, telephone, air transport, ports and major banks. It is the same in trade, construction and agriculture.

AGREEMENT n⁰5 :

EXCLUSIVE RIGHT TO PROVIDE MILITARY EQUIPMENT AND TRAIN MILITARY OFFICERS OF THE COLONIES.

Thanks to a sophisticated system of scholarships, grants, and the "defense agreements" attached to the colonial pact, Africans must send their senior officers for training in France and are obliged to provide themselves with military equipment with France.

AGREEMENT n⁰6 :

THE RIGHT FOR FRANCE TO DEPLOY TROOPS AND INTERVENE MILITARILY IN THE COUNTRY TO DEFEND ITS INTERESTS.

Under the so-called "defense agreements" attached to the colonial pact, France has the right to intervene militarily in African countries, and also to permanently station troops in military bases and installations, entirely managed by the French.

AGREEMENT n⁰7 :

THE OBLIGATION TO MAKE FRENCH THE OFFICIAL LANGUAGE OF THE COUNTRY AND THE LANGUAGE FOR EDUCATION.

An organization for the French language and the dissemination of French culture has even been created. It is called the "Francophonie" and has several satellite organizations. These organizations are affiliated to and controlled by the French Minister of Foreign Affairs.

AGREEMENT n⁰8 :

THE OBLIGATION TO USE THE CFA FRANC (FRANC OF THE FRENCH COLONIES IN AFRICA).*

Although this system is not shared by the European Union, the French colonies are forced to use the FCFA exclusively.

AGREEMENT n⁰9 :

THE OBLIGATION TO SEND TO FRANCE, AN ANNUAL BALANCE SHEET AND A REPORT ON THE STATE OF RESERVES. NO REPORT, NO MONEY.

That is to say that the director of the central banks of the former colonies presents the said report at the annual meetings of the Ministers of Finance on the former colonies. This report is then compiled by the Banque de France and the French Treasury.

AGREEMENT n⁰10 :

RENOUNCE ANY MILITARY ALLIANCE WITH OTHER COUNTRIES, UNLESS AUTHORIZED BY FRANCE.

Most of these countries only have military alliances with their ex-colonizers simply because France forbade them any other military alliance.

AGREEMENT n⁰11 :

THE OBLIGATION TO ALLY WITH FRANCE IN THE EVENT OF WAR OR A GLOBAL CRISIS.

More than a million African soldiers fought for the defeat of Nazism and fascism during the Second World War. Now that France is militarily linked to the European Union, NATO and the United States, Africa will de facto be committed to the side of France in the event of the 3rd World War.

Dear fellow Africans, eleven (11) agreements are still in force between France and the 14 countries of the CFA zone, and no French media or their so-called African specialists will ever talk about these sinister agreements that have been imposed on the African countries of the CFA zone.

Dear compatriots, that is why we do not stop denouncing this colonization which has now been practiced since 1960, by interposed persons, that is to say by leaders of their choices whom they support and whom they protect by imposing dictatorship on them in front of their own peoples.

What interests us today among these eleven agreements is the tenth (n⁰ 10) which says that the 14 countries of the CFA zone through the agreement, are not authorized to have a military alliance with other countries and are also not authorized to buy military equipment in another European country without the authorization of France,
that is why Mali has been blocked until today. But the situation has been unblocked, Mali can now freely cooperate with all the countries of the planet without asking France for permission.

DEAR COMPATRIOTS, IN VIEW OF ALL THESE MORAL, PHYSICAL AND PSYCHOLOGICAL SCAMS, THE NEW AFRICAN GENERATION MUST DO ITS PART TO RESTORE THE NATIONAL ACHIEVEMENTS OF OUR CONTINENT IN ORDER TO LEAVE A WORTHY LEGACY TO FUTURE GENERATIONS.

GRAH KOSSI-KOSSI.

Be careful what you wish for. There are levels to which a country's currency devalues that economic recovery is almost impossible. study Zimbabwe, Argentina, Venezuela. Even we have not recovered from the devaluation of the 1980s. Devaluation especially in developing countries creates unintended consequences and tends to lead to a vicious spiral downwards. Examples of unintended consequences are social unrest which discourages investment (see what is happening with the SE) and brain drain. When companies are not investing and your best brains depart, you become a country of poor people and poor people dont pay taxes so ultimately govt revenues fall with make the currency weaker which induces another wave of devaluation and the cycle continues. Like I said we havent recovered from the 1980s devaluation.

Most of whom are actually returnee slaves from

If you are a returnee slave you are 100% not originally from ijebu or Lagos. These places NEVER had their indigenes sold as slaves.

For example Herbert Macaulay’s returnee grandfather was from Oyo. Darochas are from Ilesha etc.

I suggest you reconsider what your mean by being a Christian. If a man insults your family name and you go about explaining the logic behind the insult, most people will see you as a bastard. Same with if you're a member of an organisation yet you help a slanderer to whitewash his slandering of that organisation.

That said, how did you arrive at the conclusion that Muslims are the majority in Kaduna? Assuming but not conceding that they are, how does the fact that El-Rufai picked a Muslim from southern Kaduna as his deputy, stand in the face of your logic that democracy is the rule of the majority, when it is common knowledge that Christians are the majority in southern Kaduna. I mean, if the deputy gov seat is ceded to Kaduna South, should the nominee not be a member of the prevailing religion there?

With same logic, why should a southern Muslim who is decidedly minority in the south be the one to take the southern turn for presidency instead of a southern Christian?
Reevaluate what you think is truth and fair. Examine your Christian identity
I am embarrassed as a Christian to see constantly how low some Christians have sunk in terms of his capacity to reason and engage his brain. That’s all I am going to say to you. There is nothing incorrect in what ElRufai said, he merely made a statement of fact. Like I said Pentecostalism has damaged the brains of Nigerian Christians.

The exploitative culture of pentecostalism of brainwashing you to pray for miracles and blessings with less emphasis on effort has killed the mental capacity of many Christians.

The same man you accuse of having an islamization agenda, you accuse of trying to repeal sharia law! Which is which? The truth is ElRufai is under attack for being an unconventional northern politician. El Rufai for instance is one of the few northern politicians in support of devolution of power and true federalism.

I am a Christian, he merely stated a fact, so long as Muslims are in the majority, they will continue to rule Kaduna just like we say everyday that so long as those the Ibos insult everyday are in the majority they will continue to rule Nigeria. The majority can rule forever and be fair to the minority. The minority have no divine right to blackmail the majority to power. You want power you earn it and in a democracy, so long as you are a minority your ascention to power is at the pleasure of the majority not by blackmail.

I stand with El Rufai. Nigerians are allergic to thee truth and forthright people.

I drive an accord type 6 2006. 4 cycl.

This Monday I bought a fuel worth 10k, about 16ltrs, after driving about 25km while the reserve light was on, thus, I've eaten deep into the reserve.

I have driven to the office thrice and now on my odometer, I have a reading of 47miles when my reserve light came on.

If I calculate by this, it means I have done 75.6km, there are no heavy traffic on my route, so IMO this is a very high mileage.

I'm pretty sure the car will still take me back home and back to the office again which is a total of 38km, My car is on an open loop system.

My question is, do you calculate your fuel consumption like this or you do your maths when your tank is completely empty?
Does you car have a trip computer? If it does learn to use it. It will tell you everything you need to know. Most modern cars have trip computers.

This is why you should try for yourself and read history even if you are not taught in schools. All Emirs are Fulanis. All Emirs are descendants of Dan fodio.

Emir comes from Emirate which is foreign to Nigeria. An Emirate is a sub unit of a Caliphate and the head of an Emirate is the Emir. When the North was conquered, Dan fodio placed his sons in charge of the Emirates with himself as the first Sultan of Sokoto as the Centre and head of Caliphate. Hence the sultan of Sokoto is/was the head of the Islamic Caliphate and all Nigerian emirs are related.

I dated this lady for few years... doing our courtship we had unprotected sex.
I later relocated to another state because of my studies....that's how the relationship died.

She later got married

After about 13years of not hearing from eachother....one day my phone rang and behold she was the one...she called to tell me a secret...she said her first child is mine and not her husband's.
That doing our courtship she took in, she tried to abort it but it didn't work out for her, she didn't tell me about it because she knew that i was not ready to father a child at that time.

It was at that moment that she met this guy who is now her husband...the guy hasten everything and got married to her...she made him believe that the pregnancy is his own whereas that's was not the true...the boy is 8years old now.
She said her conscience has been disturbing her that's why she opened up to me.

I told her never to let the husband know about it and let the child be the husband's own....let her just forget everything about me being the father of the child so that her marriage won't crumble.
She has a loving husband and she is blessed with three kids aside the boy.


But she made one comment that when the boy reach 22years she will tell him who his real father is....she insisted. But am against it, i told her not to try it because if she end up telling the boy about it there is every possibility that the husband will end up knowing about it and i wonder how he is going to react towards it.

(Women can keep secret sha)
Please i hope i did the right thing??
You didn’t hear from each other for 13years but her 8yr old son is yours? Try another one.
