@ op. Read up the book by william shakespeare "Taming the shrew".

For others not yet married, courtship is not just about the sex, if the op had observed properly art courtship stage, his now wife would have given signs of the traits displayed by his wife, he is complaining about now.

she should not just be relieved,............ I feel she should also be tried in the law court for her weighty and highly sensitive false proclamations that could have destabilised the polity. Sacking her was good riddance to bad rubbish.

A secret security service spokeperson must not talk like a party spokesperson, some of the weighty things she said, i doubt even Olisah metuh, PDP spokesman could have said. She was so nauseating, the final straw was the invasion of APC office and incarceration of the workers in there for days, and also had an effontery calling a world press statement alleging that APC was cloning INEC cards: her evidence was that some of the apc regitration forms had multiple registration by APC members

I felt somewhat awkward and pityful when my gen service man asked if I could help him get a job two days ago.

I have been in a serious relationship with this girl for two years now. i asked her where she was last nite when we were chatting but she didn't reply me.
She left whatsapp after reading the message and then she switched off her two phones. Efforts to called her was unproductive. Instantly, my instincts told me something was wrong somewhere. I called her girl friend if she was with her and she said 'no'.
finally, i went to her house to check if she was at home around 11:30 pm but to my greatest surprise, her room was locked up. I went home but couldn't sleep all through the nite. The whole drama was getting more strange cos i trust her very much and i couldn't comprehend the idea that she was sleeping in another guys room at that time.

This morning around 6:am, she messaged me on whatsapp that she was at home and that she is very sorry for not replying my message. I sprang up from the bed and went to her house immediately but on getting to her house, i found out that her room was still locked.

She later came home around 7:30 am and met me on her door post. We went inside the room and i asked her where she was coming from; after series of lies, she later opened up that she spent the nite at a friend's house(male) whom she visited the previous evening. She started crying that i should forgive her that nothing(s*x) happened between them during the nite.

I told her it was over between us and i warned her never to contact me again. Lo, on leaving the room, she brought out her kitchen knife that she was going to kill her self since i 've broke up wit her.. after some moment of dragging, i was able to resusciate the knife from her and i told her i wasn't leaving her any more.. This girl is very serious about killing her self if i leave her and i love her very much; but the thought of her sleeping in another man's house is driving me crazy. What should i do?

u have done well preventing a seeming suicide by telling her u will not ditch her. who knows if she truly had stabbed herself to death in your presence, you would have a murder case on your head, while u struggle to prove it was a suicide case. Trust Nigerian bloggers, the headline will be like" boyfriend brutally stabs girlfriend to death over suspected cheating". The time to leave her is now, brutally "stab her" with a phone call as to how u can no longer continue the relationship and why she must never show up again in your crib. it is all over bro, don't deceive itself to think you can salvage anything.

quite ironic.

I thought 24 months ago, he said the APC will die soon.

I am wondering what kind of "future leaders" most of you will become, when you cant even read an article, talk-less of reading a Text-book or Novel that could be ten times more voluminous?
You guys need to develop your reading and comprehension abilities, everything cant be in summary or does this look like twitter?

Back tot he article jare.
I dont blame the bankers, only a fool will put his trust in those lying Policemen. Half of the time, they are doing illegal road block, collecting "Rogger", the other half, they are drunk on Orijin or some kaikai.

This reminds me of what Fashola had to do, when Armed robbery became a menace in Lagos state.
He massively funded the Police with resources and setup special anti robbery squads (SARS) with fearless men.
I dont understand why and how Ogun state Governor cannot buy about 50APC (and pay in trenches) so that there is always an APC within each branch?
Does he not know that the state makes money from economic activities which are being paralysed right now?
Invest small money into security and reap it back four fold, Governor Ajumobi, you are sharper than this now?
These things are not rocket science or do we need to invite #SaBaba PMB to declare a state of emergency in your state, if you can provide security for the people?i

As for that Tout in Ekiti state, l have no advice for him.
The people of Ekiti seems to be getting what they bargained for.
When Fayose is done with them, they will be 200years behind civilization.

Ajimobi is governor of Oyo state and not Ogun state. his first tenure from 2011-2015 was bank robbery free, it was one of his achievements he used to campaign. in 2012, he launched the Oyo state Security trust fund. As for Ogun state, the governor is Amosun, I am aware he invested in tens of APCs for the state security from proforce, and I doubt if there was any successful bank robbery in Ogun state thru out his first tenure too. The problem of the people is more of a psychological hangover from past robberies, as the casualty figures were usually high

about 70% of the period in review (2nd quarter)was under Jonathan.

for trolls and idiiots with mob mentality, 2nd quarter starts from April, may and June.
to even hold the govt of the day responsible, then it must be the 3rd quarter of the year. (July august sept)

from the front page comments, I can see virtually all of it reveals comprehension issues.
to summarise what she said " my sex appetite currently is somewhat low, I am yet to meet a man with the attraction that will Inrease considerably my sexual appetite.".

SAMBARRY:
they do everything that impoverishes them now blame government

1.they will not save or invest.a janitor in my office bought lace of 25,000 meanwhile she earns 10,000 per month. She was able to pay 3000 and whenever she sees the woman coming she will dodge. The people collecting her salary times 10 will save o

2.you know your mother was a poor tailor struggling to survive, your father is a bricklayer na them go do third wife for a bus driver who can barely live up to his responsibilities
3.na them go born full ground and be distributing children about

you go and do house help for chief tayos family
you go and do labourer in so so factory
you go and do sales girl in alabas saloon
you go and sell clothes

then when society abuses them and takes advantage of their poverty they will blame the government


God gave us a brain to be used

I had to trace this post and quote it to say touche !

what low income earners needs most is to be taught to apply common sense the better in decision making. in fact poverty alleviation programmes by govt & individuals must lay emphasis on good decision making within family units. Distributing bags of rice and cans of groudnut oil will not take any one out of poverty, it will only make them feel good for a short while.

seriously?? a 12.5kg gas lasts over a month for a family of 4?? I think you need to ask questions.

enough of the back and forth, it is you that needs to ask questions and also ensure you answer them objectively.
I earlier said many Nigerians are averse to change and very stiff minded to ideas challenging conventional beliefs, that is all over your posts. Even firewood comes at a cost for most of the users ,
I said earlier the number of the household barely matters, except for very high numbers , yet u still kept mentioning family of 4. you will find out that for so called poor households, there is negligible difference in cooking patternof family of 1 or family of 4, in such households u will barely see cases of each member of the family cooking different meal at different times. I even doubt the cooking will be thrice in a day for obvious reasons. I have used myself as an example, my cylinder was refilled 3 months ago, and it is yet to be exhausted, I am not saying it is going to be the same for every household cos there are days I am
not home, but nevertheless 1month+ is very realistic.
man by nature likes to resist change ,even when he barely understand the rationale guiding the change, but the essence of education is to teach you to be open minded, so u can learn and relearn.

opeaceo:
for a family of 4 or 6, a 12.5kg cylinder won't last a month.

the size of the family barely matters, more often than not the meal for the household is cooked once, whether they are 1, 3, 5 or 10, as long as the meal fits in to a single cooking pot. There is a very good chance it would last well over a month,even if the family cook thrice in a day..
I bought my last refill may 15, and it is not yet finished, although I don't cook heavily

opeaceo:
You're still hammering on the gas cylinder, assuming it was given to them for free, they'll use around 9k to refill in two months, that is huge.

it doesn't have to be given to them for free, virtually every poor family has at least a mobile phone., a household can afford to buy a gas cylinder, if it wants, the same way it can buy a mobile phone., while a mobile phone will last at most 3-4years, or even stolen in matter of days, or spoilt in matter of months, if it buys a gas cylinder of at most 8,000 naira , it can be used for over 20 years. refilling a 12.5kg cylinder fully costs 3,000 naira roughly, I bought mine 2,600 the last time. . all things being equal a filled 12.5kg can last a month or more sef. for a light cooker like me, I use a 12.5kg cylinder for 3 freaking months on the average.
the so called poor people needs to be taught to activate their latent common sense. the stress, strain, and the resultant health complications and even treatment costs outweighs the myopic firewood culture., they look up to educated ones like u to enlighten them, it is important you don't fail them.

I believe, if a corn seller gets the maize supplies from a farm at a cheap rate, (s)he can make avg profit of n20/ one roasted corn, and can sell over 500 corns from morning to evening. 20 * 500 = 10,000 daily

10,000 naira daily no be joke o. in a month, with 25roasting days, that is 250,000naira. The location of the business is very important sha.

[color=#27408B]I haven't read a greater lie than this in a while! [/color]

I think he has truth all over his post bro. mortality rate was also high then, many were attributed to village witches though, but the village ones also had other advantages like not getting stucked in traffic for long inhaling exhaust fumes, not striving too hard to chase money,fame, consequently less worries or high blood pressure, not eating canned foods with dangerous preservatives, not exposed to generator fumes, e.t.c. all in all the net emissions then was low, but if you are living g an urban or semi urban life exposed to modern envt challenges and still stucked with cooking with firewood, na sorry be the person name

opeaceo:
they'll refill the gas won't they?? and a 3kg gas cylinder won't last a month for a family of four.

I don't get ur point. if it finishes, they can refill na. abi if firewood finish, they no dey buy another one. in fact there is nothing stopping a family from saving up 8,000 to buy a standard 12.5kg gas cylinder, or even 5 to 6k to buy a fairly used one. no excuse please. a cylinder for the family that can last 15years or more. baba, no excuses, I think the problem is more of poverty of good reasoning, such kind of poverty abounds in the educated and well to do minds too.

opeaceo:
The writer of the article is promoting the use of gas which is good, but how many people can afford the gas cylinders??
Kerosene is the preferred alternative here and not gas.

the how many people can afford gas cylinder statement is a fallacy. A 12.5kg brand new gas cylinder cost less than most mobile phones in the hands of Nigerians, it is roughly 8k. , moreover they don't have to buy that size, there are other smaller sizes , even 3kg gas cylinders, that can't cost more than 2.5k
the problem is more of ignorance, and a culture some people have being averse to change.

sorry o but I can't eat made in Nigeria sardine. Some things are not just meant to be produced in Nigeria. Our hygienic standards have to Improve

bro, do u eat, made in Nigeria tomatoes and pepper, drink made in Nigeria garri, eat made in Nigeria sausage rolls ( gala, e.t.c),..... if ur answer is positive to any of those, you are deceiving yourself

soyinka, as a postgraduate, I get disappointed in you each day.
You have become a full fledged politician, and I suspect you have always been.
Soyinka, you are far from being the intelligent man I thought you were.
For your information, soyinka, the word corruption doesn't have a universal meaning. Indeed to heterosexuals, homosexuality is corruption, to passionate musicians singing with the help of electronics is corruption, to people against alcool, drinking alcool is corruption. And depending on your religious beliefs, corruption can mean different things. For muslims, eating porc is corruption, speaking ill of mohamed is corruption, not being a muslim is corruption. For christians not being a monotheist is corruption, not going to church is corruption. for atheists being religious is corruption. Also when a thief is being arraigned by the police for stealing an orange, nobody considers that thief a corrupt man. When someone rubs a bank and steals large sums of money, nobody calls him corrupt. I expected a university professor to know all this. How dissappointed I am in soyinka who I thought was a world citizen and an intelligent man.

to every sane human being, stealing is corruption.
your attempt at calibrating stupidity is laughable and only meant for the very gullible.

as a 12 year old boy, I was In senior secondary school 1. a girl starts developing breast at 8 years. The father has simply failed to draw the line that his baby girl is no longer a baby as he perceives. the little girl is most likely not been taught to be assertive , if she was, she would have refused been bath for sternly.

CuteMaryJ:
Most times when we walk into big malls, boutiques, supermarkets, we never question their prices. We pay exactly what we see on the price tags and even hand out tips to the staff. But the moment we are out of these shops and want tobuy banana, our bargaining game gets off to the roof.

Poor widow with 12 hungry children at home tells you banana is N100. She even takes out her time to explain how difficult it wasfor her to even buy it, how the economy is so tough. But we insist that if it's not N50, we are not paying. Some of us even step back into our cars and make to drive away.

But because 'half bread is better chin chin', this woman is forced to call you back and sell to you at little or no gain. In her heart, she cries, she's worried about how she'll survive with her children. She silently reassures herself that 'It's well. God will definitely provide.'' While you happily chop the luscious banana.

Take some seconds out and think about this, guys. Please don't bargain hard with small vendors like this. They do business not to buy designer bags, Gucci shoes but to LIVE and EAT!

Love,

thought provoking! and agree with your postulations. what i disagree with is your sample of a poor widow with TWELVE children. Anytime I see poor folks with lot of children, instead of pity for them, anger arouse in me, and I sense selfishness and wickedness on the path of the parent. children are Gods heritage and didn't beg to be brought in to the world, no one should bring in to the world what is clearly way out of your provisions ability. how can a man carrying a very heavy load and weighed down by it , decide to add more load?

No vex u don make anything worth commenting before...see bros let me tell u one funny thing abt life if u see nothing good in the small gud that ppl do no one may likely celebrate d good u av done...sometimes carma tells us that we see sense in d little nonsense dat we say ppl av cos in every nonsense there is sense

I hate emotional beings, you are writing Bullocks! my last post is clear enough, instead of trying to make rocket that will never fly or be launched, focus on making stuffs that can be readily put to use and solve an immediate need, no matter how small the invention might appear.

Where did u get the stats that they are d most loosed in d world?.......na wa o

there are lots of empirical evidence, this thread is one.
HIV infection rate is another one. at a point in Botswana, over 40% of the country were infected with Hiv. South Africa has the highest number of hiv infected individuals for a country in the world, Namibia, share similar high rates. additionally, I have had personal encounter with some, their perception to sex and practices is way too liberal for comfort.

so sir in ur mighty wisdom u think a man who was not in the 18th century who didnt even go to school like u sir n still built something like dat cant do more with little brushing n training? bros a computer scientist in nigeria is still learning fortran basics etc dat was left in 1980's a mechanical engineering students is still trying to produce cars dat cant move while electrical engineering students are battling with producing reading lamp dat uses battery something a primary schl child in china can do...n here a person who knws nothing abt schl expresses himself n u wyne ur tongue...?? u r a joker

hey! go and sleep, you are the joker here. he should apply his creativity to solve peculiar needs of Nigeria and Africa. i repeat there is no point trying to reinvent the wheel and developing a plane worse off than the one built by the wright brothers in 1903, there is absolutely no innovation in building that trash, all I see is vain glory and ego tripping. I read here some days ago that a policeman developed a bullet proof using local materials, I want to believe that can be readily put to use as it is expected to be way cheaper than imported ones and it will still provide about the same utility , that should be celebrated!!! many people still suffer and die from drinking dirty water, a local technology that develops a cheap, cost effective purifier should be celebrated

southern africa women are the most loose women in the continent. HIV rates are also the highest in those places, s.a, Botswana, Zimbabwe, Namibia, e.t.c

this is the kind of local technology that should be encouraged, not someone building 18th century motor helicopter that can't fly.

bulllshit !!! , this kind of nonsense should not be encouraged., reinventing the wheel with something some one might have done in the 18th century is not innovation.

what we need is local technology that is truly applicable and beneficial. e.g local rice thresher, farm scare crows, e.t.c not these buffonic ego tripping.

I wished it was 100,000 pipeline vandals sef. they all deserve to be roasted like suya.

the only frank Edwards I know is the Namibian, who was once 100m African record holder
