moca: Lol! So who is the pastor? Cococandy Efe is church admin head. Chilli na choir mistress.
I am the pastor o. At least I better pass you Three years? Chillis 5yrs?
You guys need deliverance. Sherimamamamama (speaking in tongues)
Efemenaxy. Well I'm all in for girls' night even though I'm drinking my own right now (no church today) Drunk pastor like me
Edwife ndo. My own level never reach yours. Still easy for now. Next quarter will be the beginning of the stress. Hope I even find time to be online then
ImBae: Falling in love is all nice and sweet. Finding the right person is the problem. Men have short attention span, today they are in love with you, tomorrow they are chasing after someone else. Not willing to take the risk again, heartbreak isn't fun.
Yea I know. Frustrating right? But believe me not all of them have roving eyes. I've been with both types and I defintitely know.
The more mature that one is, the better the chance that you won't have to deal with his wild-oat-sowing stage. Maybe But that is not a definite cheat-proof technique.
By the way it is ok for you to not want to get married. No pressure. Just that I believe you will find someone and lose that stance. I can almost count on it
Regenerated: Please I have a question! Is it advisable for newly wedded couples to delay having issues? i mean childbearing? for like 6 months or a year? And please how can one go about that?
Of course if you're not ready you can.
Let your wife visit a family planning centre and get the type of contraceptives compatible with her lifestyle and the waiting period you guys want.
henribj: please calm down, its too early in the morning to get worked up yeah sure i will support and provide for my kids but what i will not tolerate is for the ex wife to sit back, fold her arms, cross her legs, and just be depending on me cos of say she born pikin for me na im be say she just chook pipe/hose for my a..hole and just dey suck out all my brain matter
We are talking about supporting your kids and you're saying spending on the man. Depending on him for what? To take care of his kids? Is he doing the woman a favor by helping to provide for the kids they birthed equally?
henribj: yeah women should stop f..king depending on the man to foot all the bills shey the woman no go school nii? her certificate na for decoration she no get business sense nii? make she start up a business because she born pikin for the man and then they divorce mean say the man go turn father christmas on top her matter? if she no fit train the kid/s make she hand am over to the man case closed
Onegai: I don't know if he is, but she's right about one thing: his writing feels very hollow, like someone trying constantly to stir up emotions, not like someone inviting you to deep introspection. I can rarely remember what he wrote and I read last year. I remember being all hyped up about him and now I read his tweets and usually roll my eyes and move on.
Like if he was on NL, he would constantly be writing to gain likes, not say anything meaningful.
I'm no fan of Ms. Adichie but she's right about it.
Also why be so offended by "boy"? If the biggest publisher in the world (who happens to be male) said to a crowd of hopeful writers "I'm proud of my boys" referring to them, won't they have swallowed it and laughed and brushed it off in the quest for greatness ?
Exactly what I said too. He has a problem with the term because she's female even though he's clearly under her,was her protege for a while and was also seeking to use her connections to rise.
Just that in such matters, wisdom is profitable to direct. She's not familiar with the nigerian terrain of expression so even if she meant no harm, it is lost on the populace because of pre-conditioning. In her oyibo mind, he should be fine with it because his status as her underling in not secret but she over estimates enlightenment about such matters
Like a negro can call another nigga but a white folk would be committing career suicide if he does.
You're kinda right about his writing but then his satirical and witty approach is a unique talent in itself.
coogar: it's ok - she's one of those folks with no netiquette. they ignore the message & go after the messenger.....if i go for the jugular, SJWs like cococandy would say men start the verbal abuse the most on this section.
Whatever that means sha you're part of it too because you only notice when the lady insults first but excuse the guy for 'having history' with the recipient even when she didn't throw the first bomb.
freecocoa: Chimamanda is the bomb any day but I don't think it's appropriate to refer to the guy in that manner, especially given in the Nigerian context she talked about, they don't have that kind of relationship as one can only refer to a bosom friend or subordinate as such.
For dough. 2 cups pancake mix. Level Teaspoonful baking soda 100g butter (melted) Half cup sugar Little Warm water(like quarter cup)
Mix one cup of pancake mix with the sugar and pour in melted butter. Dissolve the baking soda in warm water and pour in. It will be runny. Keep stirring until all the lumps disappear. Add the remaining one cup of flour and stir with a wooden spoon until stiff. Knead with your hands for a while then oil a bowl, place it in the bowl and refrigerate for 4-5 hrs.
Filling. *One Ground beef *One cup mixed veggies of your choice-minus *broccoli and its family members. *One medium onion *Half red bell pepper *Seasoning and pinch of salt. *Two tablespoons vegetable oil.
Heat the oil. Fry your diced onions until tender. Add veggies and key cook for 5mins. Add the ground beef and cook until it is all brown. If the beef is the type with plenty oil, you might wanna cook it separately and drain the oil before adding to your source.
Season the source to your taste.
Bring out dough from the fridge, dust your board with some flour or pancake mix and roll dough into a square.
Sprinkle grated cheese ( I used montery jack and cheddar cheese) lightly on, spread your filling on top of the cheese and roll the dough into a cylinder.
Brush with raw egg and sprinkle sesame seed from end to end.
Then cut into desired sizes.
Bake in a well oil baking pan for at least 30mins at 360• F.
Make sure to have space between the rolls as they spread during baking.
Remove from the oven when brown( 30 mins should be enough but allow a few extra minutes if not brown enough like in the picture)
Allow to cool.
Texture will be cakey on the outside and moist on the inside. Enjoy.
Chimamanda hasn't fully realized how much ego even the most enlightened of Nigerian males is.
I blame her.
Next time she should thread carefully and avoid assuming that others are operating on the same frequency as her. What constitutes a joke to her may mean more to him. Even as her protege, he doesn't see himself as a learner under her.
Because I'm quite sure if she was a man, he would have problems with the term 'boy' even if it wasn't meant as a joke.
BCF1: Naturally we assumed she may not have a lawyer. But if she does we believe it would make our lawyer's job much easier.
The legal protection for her is in the payment of all her fees as documented as well as see to it that she comes out of the whole pregnancy in good health.
We are not 'tribalistic' my wife and I as we both come from different tribes in Nigeria. We are open to all tribes as long as the person is healthy and okay with our terms and payments.
1. The child would be genetically ours. You would not be sharing any DNA with the child as you/or the participant would simply be the carrier of the child to term.
2. There would be no restriction of movement. However we would be in the know of all your movements for obvious reasons.
3.There would be no restrictions in communication however we would prefer that all communications be about other matters and not of that which you/ the participant has signed a non disclosure about.
4. Compensation for possible complication can be discussed. However it is important to stress that your health is our utmost priority. If it ever comes to a decision of our child you are carrying causing you irreparable damage we are willing to forgo our ambitions to see that you pull through.
5. While we may prefer persons who has less family responsibilities like a mother my wife and I have nursed the possibility that this may be the case. In which case we would make arrangements that suits all the parties involved including the husband.
I hope I have answered all your questions satisfactorily.
Speaking of which, I couldn't believe my luck last week. Famous shoes outlet in our local mall was closing that branch of their business.
shoes were giveaway/dirt cheap. I almost got carried away with greed. Wanted to pack all of them at once. Anyways I got very good brands for as low as $20/30.
It was like a one time opportunity How many times does one shoe shop close in a year?
It's quiet in the dressing room today. Hope we're all good?
Went shoe shopping a few days ago at a local departmental store. Couldn't find my shoe size nor did any of the shoes on display particularly catch my fancy. However while browsing, I did see some really tiny (adult) shoes. One of the size 3's immediately got me thinking of Edwife...
dearpreye: I'm still seriously laughing. None can be more pleasurable than watch a people given a taste of their own medicine. That's the position the APC and its supporters are in at the moment.
This is election period; propaganda and lies are even more common than green grass.
The APC and its supporters are working tirelessly to ensure the masses understand that Mrs Buhari was quoted out of context. They're afraid such a misrepresentation of words can be fatal to their Edo state campaign, and may ultimately result in their losing Edo state in the forthcoming elections. Actually, its very painful to have one's words twisted and quoted out of context, with the demonic intent of using same words to taunt and smear whoever said them. Its an unfortunate situation,but that's the way it works!
That where I come in!
STEALING IS NOT CORRUPTION
I believe no single statement or sentence has done more damage to the President than these words. I watched that media chat myself, and couldn't believe what I heard. I wondered why Mr President spewed those word. This statement estranged scores of persons form the camp of the President. Even when he recently claimed to have been quoted out of context, nobody was interested.
Despite my anger at those words, especially when its common knowledge that corruption is the bane of this nation, I tried to look beyond those words to actually understand what GEJ had in mind; his words may have betrayed his intent. He was simply quoted out of context! He may have tried to differentiate between corruption and stealing' but he missed it. And till today, very few are dispassionate enough to look beyond those words and see what he had in mind. CORRUPTION IS THE MAIN PROBLEM OF NIGERIA!
Once I understood that intent, my perception of that sentence changed. Trust our media; they blew it out of proportion, and rightly so, and the broom wavers went mad with it. Till date, you hardly see a day pass here without an APC supporter dropping that line. Today, Mrs Buhari was quoted out of context, and they are wiling to attack and quarrel anyone who rightly lampoons her for those words. Words are powerful; once misconstrued, very difficult to put in perspective. The APC is feeling the agony PDP supporters including me, feel whenever STEALING IS NOT CORRUPTION is dropped.
BISHOP OYEDEPO & THE GATES OF HELL
This was another talk that was abused, twisted and used effectively by the APC goons. I didnt even have to watch the video before believeing Pst Oyedepo COULDNT have said HE WOULD OPEN THE GATES OF HELL ON THOSE WHO OPPOSED GEJ's REELECTION BID. It wasnt just possible. A pastor of his calibre, who is ever conscious of his words, couldn't have uttered that. The APC folks would have none of it. Even when I told my APC friends it was not possible for Oyedepo to have said it, they dismissed it, and further went to denigrate and attack the person of the Man of God. His words were twisting by one APC supporter, and it went viral. The man of God didnt even bother to reply the attacks. Trust him for that! Oyedepo wasnt even quoted in context per see; he was lied against, and it went viral.
CONCLUSION
If the APC and its supporters werent mature and patient enough to have really understood these two persons, but instead went viral with them, and shared and shared these words with fellow supporters, why do they expect the average PDP supporter to believe Mrs. Buhari was quoted out of context? They are being paid in their own coin, and given a teaspoon of their own medicine. Thats the way it works. Its called Karma, and she is NOT affiliated to any party. They should deal with it: Buhari will put an end to Edo state Prostitution! A very good agenda, I must say.
