Ok

wallex1983:
It's politics my brother. Else, you start by fighting unnecessary battles from the beginning of your tenure as president.

Take a cue from Buhari / Sàràkí sàga.

Our reasoning is the reason why Nigeria might never improve.
Don't you know that Saraki Buhari time was favorable to Nigeria as a nation than this rubber stamp of Lawan today.

During Saraki senate presidency, Buhari government prepared before coming to Nas but in this Lawan Era, Buhari's government spends money before coming for approval. Look at where we are today because of that evil relationship.
We need independent legislators, independent Judiciary because with that the executive will be at their toes and Nigerians will be the Beneficiaries

wallex1983:
While I may not particularly think Akpabio is a good candidate for that office, I must still give it to Tinubu.

He knows what he wants and goes exactly for it. No space for speculations.

I see him appoint most of his cabinet members within one month

You think it's a good idea for a president to have a say in who becomes the senate president and the speaker of HoR?

We are building a rubber stamp national assembly...

God1000:
That man is still living in the past.

Boys or girls, I'm okay with both.

Proper upbringing is the real issue.

Read the story again, this time slowly.
Read the last paragraph even slower.

If the issue is about girl children, she doesn't need the court to grant her their custody...

TemplarLandry:
Excellent!
In my eyes, Tinubu's presidency is the start of Nigerian democracy. No more Khaki men in Agbada.

This is the very first time a true democrat with no stupid military background will be our President.

The very first time a President from the South supervises Nigerian census. So credibility rate of the census is way high.

The first digital census in Nigerian history.

No more wonky inflated figures from the Ariwa.
Hopes are up!

Alhaji Shehu Shagari was a retired Airforce officer and Goodluck Jonathan is a retired Naval officer.

You have to revisit your history teacher... 🤣

Ttipsy:
u can't really say that... Ututu oma is a literal English meaning for modern Ibo

Good Oma
Ututu morning

We are saying the same thing.
However, for clear understanding.
Igbo wasn't greeting ụtụtụ ọma until the English came with their good morning.

Samantha124:
I think it depends on the nature of your relationship, committed relationships and marriages are all about compromising for each other.

You don't always get what you want because you have to consider the other person.

Such things are better off discussed earlier in your relationship, before you take things to the next level.

This OP is specific...
Husband and Wife.

So it's everything you have to discuss before marriage...

Plenty children dey this app

Ututu ọma is not Igbo Language for morning greetings.

Ibonachi, ibokwala, unu ofokwele,

Axis313:
Obesity is a slow killing disease,the boy may not know it now,he will think it is a sign of good living.
Obi Cubana should take a step as a matter of urgency to safeguard the boy's health.

Not Obi Cubana but Cuban chief priest

Richy4:
Step by Step on how to disarm a freeloader. (Accomodation)
<<Bring out your phone......
<<Go on property site and make sure u got a cheap house for rent...
<<Call her out of the blues for her to come and see what you have found..
<<Show her the cheap accommodation and encourage her to call them...
<< Volunteer to accompany her to look at the place.....

From there, you will hear her line of argument, excuse or substories...
Do not give her room to feel that you don't want her there... Be nice and sweet but deliberate in what you are saying..(remember not to burn the bridge though, because u might need it someday).

I love this your beautiful advice
Wao!

Upset700:
I've been having issues with guys for years now, especially with guys I sleep with.
Whenever I like a guy, or get interested in a guy and then i have sex unintentionally (he wants it but I don't).. After then there's this irritation, I loose interest, I cut the person off.

It's more like he has sold his value to me, like there's no prize, probably he is a great guy but that act alone makes me very uncomfortable.
I know this is usually a guy thing, but I've been struggling with this for years.

I feel men should also stop selling themselves cheap...cus they are women who wouldn't value what they can get easily.

You wanted front page, now you have made front page.
Sex to a man is like a sport.
No man sales his value by having sex with a woman.
Congratulations you made front page anyway

jlinkd78:
Emefiele d CBN Governor bungled an otherwise good intention. I foretold this that Las las our old notes will coexist with d new notes d moment I observed people being given old notes over d counter inside d Banks while same time people are queueing to deposit old notes. Emefiele lost his neutrality d moment he expressed interest in partisan politics to contest president. This is d most reasonable thing to do now to ameliorate d suffering and hardship in d land.
Old notes remains legal tender

Bros did you really read what the Council of States said?

They said print more or recirculate the old notes.
They didn't say recirculate the old notes.

Emefiele will neither print more, nor recirculate the old notes.

Cashless policy until after elections

Chocoloco:
So guys yesterday I went to this new brothel that just ooopen around my area, after taking my stout I say make I enter nakana but to my surprise all I saw there was little girls of just 15 to 17 omo I shock.

I called one asked her where she's from she said akwa ibom and her madam brought her there to work this girl is just 15 omo i weak comot from the place...

Guy contact human rights and girl right activists.
Those girls should be in school and the owners of that brothel should be in prison

God1000:
Christian association of Nigeria CAN should as a matter of urgency suspend apostle Suleman for his numerous immoral behaviour.

Too many allegations of sexual indiscretion against him, and this is someone a lot of people listen to and call him servant of God.

The man is a big embarrassment to Christendom, he should learn how to control his libido

Apostle Suleman is not a member of any of the blocs that made up CAN.
So CAN cannot suspend someone who is not affiliated to them

Twitter user, Nwa Maziii aka ebbynon1 shares pictures of badly printed new naira notes.

https://twitter.com/ebbynon1/status/1616397937751244802

This is not badly printed, but badly trimmed.
And it's as a result of not being properly placed before taken to the machine for cutting and trimming.

sholatech:
First, this is not targeted at Nigerians at all. It had been announced for over three years now that all Non -Citizen must have the card. Britons, Americans, Ivorian Nationals etc all must pass thru that process. It's a law passed many years back and many counties have similar policies. Nigeria made our own NIN easy and cheap for foreigners

Do none citizens in Nigeria obtain NIN?

NIN is only for Nigerians.

So get your fact right.

Foreigners use their international passport or residence permit for their identification

Alesa3341:
Hello Guys, please I need a sincere and matured advise on what to do. This will be long, please bare with me.

I'm 27, am a businessman, I have this girl I really love so much and intend to marry her this year December, but one thing about her is her bad character. She challenge me, talk back at me, shout at me, get angry with me for days, refuse to cook when she is angry, disrespect my family, most especially my mum, always trying to paint herself good and paint me bad in presence of people, these are just little of the things she has done to me.

When she lost her job, and had nowhere to go, I had to bring her to my house, and provide everything for her, food, I change her hair twice a month, subscribe unlimited for her, I just provided everything a woman need to be happy for her. Last year November, she told me she haven't seen her mum for 5years and wanted to travel to see her, I spent close to 200k to take her to and fro, including other things she needed. She insisted on collecting the bride price list for me when coming back, I spoke to her mum and they gave her to give me. I was planning to finalize all on the weeding this year.

Last year DECEMBER, I took her to my family to introduce her, but this was the biggest mistake of my life. She was completely disrespectful to my mum, talks to me anyhow in presence of anyone, even to the extent of refusing to cook for me anytime she is angry, I go to kitchen and prepare food myself.

I love this girl so much but I still thought of continuing, with all this attitudes, I advise her everyday, I also took her to my pastor who advise her too most of the times, but she never changes.

Fast forward to 2days ago, we had issues because she told me to join her in washing and I refused because I was working on a client project, she got angry, washed the clothes and when it was evening she brought the clothes inside, folded her own in the wardrobe and just threw mine into the wardrobe without folding or arranging them. I was angry about this, but I kept mute. The next day, she sent me "sorry" on WhatsApp, I told her to come to me physically and apologize but she told me she can never do that, and why was she even apologizing, that she did nothing wrong, we exchanged words and she left my house.

Today, she called me and told me she is pregnant, and that I should send her money to remove it. I was like "just like that"? We didn't discuss about it, how will you just tell me you want to terminate my pregnancy, I told her to go to hospital and confirm it and also get the test report, she did this and sent to me, it was true she is pregnant, but she insisted on removing it, I persuaded her and she still refused, claiming she can't be a single mother. I told her I will take responsibility, but she insisted on removing it, I told her to go home and think about it, and she told me she can't leave there without removing it. After so much persuading I decided to give her the money, and told her if she removed it, that it's on her, that I didn't consent to this.

I asked her why we can't keep it, and she said because my family is bad, we support evil, if the sky is blue, we say it's red, that my mother is a bad woman, and she doesn't want to come there. She said so many bad things about my family, I was shocked! I asked her, how are they bad, she said "how can my mother be telling her to wash my clothes" I was just confused, After all I have done for you, is it bad if you wash your husband to be clothes, I left her!

Later she told me the doctor referred her to another hospital, I still tried to persuade her and she said her decision is final. She asked me to give her money to go to the hospital she was referred to, I refused! I insisted that we keep the baby, she told me "I'm a nobody, that she will call now and she will get money to go" I angrily blocked her. Later, she called my other line and told me, she went to the other hospital and the doctor told her, the cost to remove the pregnancy is 125k, she told me and I insisted on keeping the baby.

Please guys help.me, I don't want to terminate my first child, the girl is too disrespectful and rude, I don't want to continue with such woman, but she is carrying my baby, what do I do? And if she later agree to keep it, how do I go about it?

You all are just saying "don't marry her" what about the baby? Should I agree to abort it and give her the money?

MODIFIED

Long and short of the whole thing is this: SHE IS NOT PREGNANT. SHE KNOWS YOU ARE NAIVE AND WANTS TO PREY ON YOU. Send her no money and don't reply her calls or messages any longer.
Save yourself from heart attack and early death.
RUN FOR YOUR LIFE.

That's if you really want to live long.

MRAKPORS:
I read my wife's chat with another guy, apparently an old school mate
In the chat, the guy said he misses my wife
And my wife said she misses him too

Please is this proper?

Be sincere with yourself.
Is there no friendship you had before you got married that you still miss?

Wait o, what does I miss you mean to you?

If you like destroy your marriage by coming here to seek advice from all these agents of destruction that is all over the social media.

My point is this.
There's nothing improper with that chat unless they talked about their past sex life.
But once it has nothing to do with sexual impurity, Oga go and enjoy your marriage

SultanOfPuna:

Christistruth00:
There are hardly any in Osun and Ogun states too especially as the Schools are free

And you don't know that basic education is also free in public schools in Anambra State.

Nyamuri:
Lol you can't give what u don't have! Datti is not known in the north and he knows PO is just wasting his time

Funny you.
A former House of Representatives member and a former Senator is not known in the north.
And he achieved all these before he was 40 years.
Think again.

North is not noisy like we in the south.
They are strategists than we in the south.

Do these guys realize that Nigeria has an embargo at its borders!

All these business men disguised as pastors are shamelessly coming out of their shell, you'll never find my pastor in this kind of mess.

I am sure you didn't read this post.
You just saw Enenche and your lazy mind concluded it is Pastor Paul Enenche.

Say NO to laziness and read the post and stop disgracing yourself here

chegzyshade:
Good evening house

I will be straight and brief with my explanation


I dropped my kids in their school early today. On my way out of the premises, I over heard the HOS/HM telling/asking a particular child " WHY ARE YOUR PARENTS SO STUBBORN?" because the child wore a black socks instead of white. That word strucked me and I felt pained cos, I won't take such.

I intervened immediately and correct her manner( I told her that shouldn't be coming from her as the head teacher).
Though she felt remorsed, but she was like the said parents are always proving hard. She told me she has had several encounter with this parents on this but they always complaining that the road to the school is very bad that whenever it rained, their child will come in black socks.

To be honest, the road is so mouldy and messed, very unpleasant, you find it so hard to walk through the road in raining periods. If you're so familiar with 'QUEENMARIS SCHOOLS' along ikotun-ijegun road, you'll understand better.
She also complained that this child will sometimes wear bodyhug under the unform or improvised cardigan to prevent cold cos the parents refused to buy the school cardigan claiming it's not priority. That they'll rather pay their child school fee than buying cardigan when they can improvise.

I was speechless though, but, I told her what she said is not good enough.

How will you feel and how will you react if your child told you someone in his/her school tell this

Ị will examine myself to know if I am actually stubborn.
And if I am, then I have to start amendment process

All this roads .. after Obi don turn Anambra to Europe .. still run go dey hide for Lagos

Power to the people
North 2023

Lol
Did you ever listen to Soludo during his campaign?

I know you didn't, because if you did, you would not have spewed this poo here

Corridon:
He should complete the projects initiated by his predecessor.

Which project did his predecessor start?

Anyway, Soludo has asked all the communities to report every uncompleted road project in the community

greatiyk4u:
After my visits to 30 states and the federal capital city of Nigeria covering places in all the geopolitical zones, I discovered that these ugly situations exist only in other geopolitical zones even in this 21st century....what an unfortunate condition!!!!

I can conclusively attest this situations to bad governance

1.You can't find a whole local Government area in the Eaat without electricity, infact, hardly can you find a community in the east without power supply courtesy of government and individual efforts

2. You cant find a community without resident Doctors and other health workers either in a government health centre or a private and church owned hospital courtesy of Government, private sector and religious organisations efforts..

3.you cant find a family in the east no matter how remote the area is without a graduate of higher institutions that's why others are amazed when they see igbo graduates into business in remote areas in the west and north.

You can't find a village without multiple duplexes and other high profile bungalows scattered all over the places, courtesy of individual efforts

There is no igbo man without a relation that worth's atleast 1M and a car not minding how low the car brand may be.

Finally, the availability of igbos in all the nooks and crannies of the country and beyond is as a result of the adventurous nature of the people that make them come to your environment and discover the hidden potentials there that is untapped by the locals to achieve greatness, this is the reason for envy and jealousy metted on the people of the East.


Give Peter Obi the Nigeria leadership and see him tap into Nigeria's real potential and reposition the country and Africa at large.

You are campaigning for PDP with Peter Obi's picture.
E no go work for you.

Before election people will know that Obi is no more in PDP but in Labour Party

Tunjibalogun:
I'm a Catholic but once in a while I get to attend pentecostal churches when invited by colleagues though. So I went to this very well known pentecostal church. I found out the following:

(1) They've now modelled their church into several services just as it is done in the Catholic Church unlike before when they go to church by 7am and return by 2pm

(2) They have the pictures of their daddy GO inside the church just like the Catholics use those of Jesus

(3)They also had ornaments like holy oil just like in the Catholic church

(4) They have communion service just like in the Catholic church. I took their wine and communion though

It seems to me like the essence of the pentecostalism is now been defeated because the pentecostal churches we knew when growing up never had these aspects that resembled the Catholic Church practices. To add to it some pentecostal churches now ordain bishops too which were never existent to them them except to the orthodox churches.

Wait o
Was there a time when Pentecostal churches don't take Communion?

Is it this 2022 that you found out Pentecostal churches have different services on Sundays?

It's a pity how things that made no sense make front page in nairaland.

Nonsense and ingredients

How can a person of her status who is a schorlar at Carnegie Mellon uttered such a despicable statement

IQ without Emtional Intelligence is disastrous

Dr. Uju Anya is a university professor and researcher in applied linguistics, critical sociolinguistics, and critical discourse studies primarily examining race, gender, sexual, and social class identities in new language learning through the experiences of African American students.

Nigerian again for the wrong reason!

Thank God you said she is a researcher.

If you know the secrets she knows, you will write more than she wrote
