@bold I don’t even know you. Calm down pls. We’re having a generic conversation so the “you” in my posts isn’t directed at you specifically. I thought I clarified that earlier.

Also as per your last paragraph, most people marry within their social/financial class.

sonofthunder:


All reputable sources madam, you are just too lazy to be objective in the information you accept.

All information can easily be gotten if you are not too lazy to research, just the same way it's easy to research information on women who divorce their husbands for refusing to train another man's children they conceived out if wedlock, women who hit their heads against the wall to lie to police officers, men who endure physical abuse from their wives because the law is "powerless" in bringing the women to book even in the face of glaring evidences, women who falsely accuse their husbands and even other men of rape and upon investigation that it was false, nothing is done to the woman.


But yes, go ahead and bury your head in the sand while you direct your hatred at me.


And in most cases, the woman contributed nothing to the development of the man, the man was already wealthy and well to do before making the mistake of bringing and unfortunate woman into his home but then you can cherry on with your delusion.

That was a very old video. Probably 10yrs cos I can still remember fragments of what happened prior to that sensitisation.
The met police sent them there. He was there with fellow officers.
That time also, met were looking for yoruba people specifically to train as officers who can use yoruba language while on duty.
It was very sensational here that time. (I think those threads were part of lost threads when nairaland crashed)
As long as it does the job. That man on that video was with superior officers. I don't understand yoruba so I can't interpret what was said but that time, Nigerians in uk were on fire and crime rate and report both for frivolities were at its peak.
Don't know why the video resurfaced again.
Hmm


That’s interesting they are distancing themselves from it now. Or maybe they sent him and what he said wasn’t exactly what they expected

I think it resurfaced again because of NL busy bodies and their always wanting something to say about abroad women.

It's not about laws but ability to execute. The laws only protect women and condemn men. We all watched how the law proved a woman falsely accused a famous actor of abuse yet the law did not met out matching judgement against said woman. You want me to rely on such laws. Laws that enable women to cheat on their wives and still initiate divorces and take away more than half of the man's hardwork and lifetime achievements?


Men who cheat on their wives can still initiate divorce. No one will stop them. The problem is y’all want to eat your cakes and have it.

Oh the man’s hardwork and lifetime achievements? Right because the women didn’t work and didn’t have any achievements in the home. Only what the men did matters. Pfft 🙄. It’s your refusal to acknowledge the contributions of the women in your lives that make you feel this way. And it’ll continue to be the root of your (generic) frustrations. You guys have made up your minds not to respect the women in your lives and value their work in the home. That’s why you can take a bold stand in public and claim “all the man achieved”, as if the woman was a bystander the whole time.




Therapy is largely unhelpful and doesn't end up getting results in as much as 60% of cases. Even therapists themselves are questioning their profession.
unhelpful to people like you who don’t see the importance of it


Female therapist are questioning their fellow gender and their desire for the right thing to be done.
reputable sources pls


Your problem is you take the cases of 53 men out of 30million who beat or abuse their wife's and use it to avail women of their hypocrisies.

If only that were the true statistic. I can’t take you seriously if you’re going to be blatantly lying

Coco, is there a special recipe for brown chicken ?

How did you do this ? I like it.

I used this browning sauce pictured below. I added purple cabbage to mine hence the darker color

But prior to adding it, I just seasoned my chicken as usual (season to your taste).

The rice and peas were cooked in coconut milk and a bit of salt. Then I served it with the sauces from the chicken and cabbage.

Steamed cabbage recipe linked below

No points of yours addressed the issue of false reporting of spouses.

I don’t need to address the issue of false reporting. There’s already a law against making false police reports. It’s a crime. Unless you’re asking me to be like you people and assume that anyone who reports domestic abuse is lying. We call that being abuse apologists


Therapy is a fraudulent circus that will be addressed another day.

The fact that you consider therapy fraudulent is a great indication that you might be in need their services. People who need introspection, self reflection and self accountability are often the ones who hate to do it the most

He should have done it on his own time and in his own image not the police image.

A lot of your pastors already preach submission even unto death. No govt has had problems with them and their problematic messaging. If he’s going to go around trying to be a marriage counselor, he needs to remove any ambiguity as to who sent him.

It’s not hard to understand and If you don’t understand that, you have a problem. I don’t encourage anyone to abuse police services or leave their marriage over trivial issues.

I also don’t encourage a person in a position of authority to go around subliminally dropping hints that the whole police department is in support of them discouraging potential abuse victims from coming forward

freshvine:


Beautiful sentimental bullshit!

The police officer is an enforcer of the law for a reason and has witness countless number of cases that's irrelevant and putting pressure on the immigrant. He decided to use a Christian platform to speak to people he believes uses Godly standards in their marriages.

If you have issues with him connecting to children of God in the language of marital longevity,then you have issues.

Stop abusing your wives and you won’t be reported.

Ask the women whose husbands don’t threaten them, hit them and don’t abuse them how many times they’ve called police on their men. Zero.

It’s not hard at all. Why would any woman want her loving sugar husband to be taken by the police? If it doesn’t follow common sense deductive reasoning, then you need to question it.

That’s all I’m saying.

don't mind all those oversabi misogynist that call themselves feminist

All those fools with misplaced priorities, this man is trying to make people understand the value of family n raising children together than going apart

He made it clear something's are best settled at home cos if it escalates n it leads to divorce it will affect d children more

That botrneck or botreglad that quoted me is just another wannabe woke man, I guess he doesn't have issues with his wife at home cos if we are to go by his logic then couples should call police on each other at every small disagreement so it won't turn big


I’m one of the useless feminists.

This man has surely caused harm in those years since this video has been released. Some people might choose to stay in a potentially dangerous domestic environment because they don’t know what might be considered serious or not until it escalates and they eventually lose their lives or suffer irreparable harm.

Even if we give him the benefit of doubt that he meant well and was only telling them not to call police for frivolous matters, that wasn’t his place to do so. If there are excess cases of people misusing police services, The police department should hold press conferences and make official statements when they feel there’s a need to do so.

I’m sure there are licensed marriage/family therapists in the UK. He could have recommended their services if he felt there was a need for something to be addressed within the congregation. Or he could’ve addressed it without his police uniform on.

He gave the impression that this information was sanctioned by his police department. Not only was it not sanctioned, it would be ridiculous of them to only single out the Nigerian immigrant population to tell such things. It never made sense from the beginning and I’m glad to see that I didn’t doubt my critical thinking.

So why were people hyping the video all over the internet in direct attack against women by saying “even the UK police has told Nigerian women to stop calling the police on their men”?

As if to insinuate that they are making up stories about nonexistent abuse and lying to the police?
That’s the impression it gave

He's actually talking about home management,nobody is saying they shouldn't report abuse but there are some minor issues that could b managed within the home that are blown out of proportion because the women believe they have an upper hand

Nairaland is super notorious for spreading lies. The MODs don’t even try to verify any information they put on the front page as long as it’s guaranteed to generate clicks like this one.

If I didn’t live in the US, the type of impression I’d have of this country would’ve been WOW. That gives me the ideal that most of the stuff they say about the UK is also probably exaggerated at best or totally made up at worst.

Nonsense people full this forum sha.

Sis I'm sick of it. I remember seeing that video about 6 years ago and it went viral, now its circulating again. If Nigerian men claim to be victims so bad, why are they spinning lies?

The background shows the man is in a church and he's just giving advice to a Nigerian audience. It's just an informal talk. Some of the people that are reposting this video don't even understand yoruba and like some idiots they're using it for their agenda.

This is about the 3rd fabrication they're making go viral against Nigerian women.

'Nigeria has the 2nd highest paternity fraud in the world'

I hope wherever this man is now, he’s saved up for his retirement because they’re about to make this go viral and unfortunately for him he might get laid off for this probably unsanctioned mission he sent himself on. Or maybe he’ll release a statement denying it. Let’s watch and see.

I know that no reputable police department anywhere in the modern world will officially stand behind such a potentially dangerous statement and expose themselves to liability.

I can’t even understand what he’s saying so we’re only taking the words of whoever posted it as fact

1Sharon:


Any news from the 'UK' circulating only on Nigerian online spaces is FAKE NEWS and NIGERIAN HEARSAY. There is no UK article that corrobates this statement.

The 'UK Police' will NEVER say this. It makes no ethical sense. Liars. A Nigerian man made this up for their japa victim agenda.


Just like the "Nigerian women are the 2nd in the world for paternity world" Another lie! No such survey was ever conducted in Nigeria.

I am not surprised the advise is coming from an immigrant.

Don’t be proud of ignorance

There’s nowhere that child support makes up financially for the work and money a single mom puts into raising the kids on her own. You’re just too deluded to believe that men nowadays are actually not evolving hence make bad spouses for modern wives.

Your opinion about what single moms are is entirely yours.
WritterNg:



Two truths can coexist.

Many, if not all single moms left for the wrong reasons, especially greed (divorce settlement and child support). Not because their husbands were abusive or controlling.

Single moms are the bottom barrel and shouldn't even be considered by any decent man. It's just like choosing between a brand new car and a badly used accidented car with too much mileage.
