What's the big deal? Sunny Ade is old enough to be Wizkid's grand father.

toshmann: For this country (USA) if you divorce ya wife, and you have a kid, the first thing the court go do na to collect ya kid and house take give ya wife
If you get solid lawyer (wey go cost you hell) you fit manage hold ya house, but ya wife go carry the pikin and court will ask her to get another house where she will live with the child and YOU pay for the new house ( trust her to get expensive house) lol

Even if court gives her your house, YOU still pay for it

Now many young people just live together without getting married.
Marriage don die for here.
Ya wife fit cheat on you, claim say she no dey happy, file divorce, get better lawyer. . . . Ya own don finish

shymexx: This is more of a political statement than anything else.

I believe a mini-martial law has been effected in those states for some time now, and nothing has changed. It's still the same thing. And a full martial law without rendering the governors "impotent" is just going to end up the same way.

You lot need to thread carefully before the BH thing consumes the whole country.

joeydozzy: my point is with the degree, he coulda still had a chance to
get a white collar job influenced by his status quo,
open a profitable business or
invest it with his income as a footballer

those university graduates don't have these

Kirinwa: The problem is rather that we lay too much emphasis on material wealth than intellectual wealth.
The bulk of Boko Haram, Mend foot soldiers are illiterates and drop outs.What of Area boys?Same applies.

InvertedHammer:
OK. You dropped out of the University.
As long as you are not looking for employment anywhere you should be fine.

nolly042: sir i great you

toluene12: The issue is despite our high moral upbringing in nigeria, why do we have one of the most morally corrupt society in the world?
If our kids are well brought as we claim, why do they leave home to join cultism or become aristos
If they are thoroughly disciplined and chastised, why do they grow up to become armed robbers, kidnappers, fraudsters, embezzlers and prostitutes?
We insist on spare the rod and spoil the child, yet nigeria has a very high percentage of spoilt and uncaring adults.
So then, what really is the essence of our discipline at home? So the child do not talk back at you and is forced to do domestic chores. This is good but discipline goes beyond that, it should last a lifetime.
New generation parents needs to review their disciplinary approach, our new motto should be 'teach a child the right way he should grow, and when he becomes an adult he wont depart from it'.
We need to start raising kids that will be better adults, this is what our society needs, and the lack of it is our bane as a nation.
Instill into the mind of a kid qualities such as integrity, honesty, truthfulness, sincerity, selflessness, service, responsibility, fairness, benevolence and other good characters along with respect to elders and suchs.
Lets stop lying to our kids. Stop exhibiting aggression, violence, deception, selfishness, intolerance and other vices in their presence.
Do not use foul languages around them and stop cursing them
Parents should raise their kids for the common good of the society. I know parents that buy waec and ume question papers for their kids, they organize special centres for their kids' waec exam. What exactly are they teaching this teenagers? CORRUPTION and LAZINESS.
kids learn faster with action than words and those things they see sticks more, and helps shape their personality.
Lets focus more on a kid's personality and less on the rod. His personality determines his contibution to the society.
The rod has been shown to be useless, if anything it inhibits a child's ability to fulfil his potential.
I was happy when I heard fashola has outlawed whipping in Lagos' public schools. Whippng had never worked, and will never work, it only breeds heart-hardened students, fearsome and unapproachable teachers. This atmosphere isn't conducive for learning.
Other forms of punishments can be introduced into our schools as a measure of discipline.
The most thrashed students in my class then are now the outcasts of the society, still grasping with their lifes 13 yrs after.

dayokanu: But the same children they didnt spare the rods for turned out to be Agberos, Militants, Yahooyahoo, Boko Harams and Pr0stitutes all over Nigeria and abroad

Kgdavid: and i sing to myself...what a wonderful world! this story is just odd from begining to end.

45 mil and yu still went on another operation for 500 k? 45 mil and yu shuld be set for a new life.

how does pastor and spiritual items even fit in the same sentence?? do pastors also give out charms now? amazed

finally the police acquired information from a corpse? lol either our police or our journalists(probably both of em) need to have their heads checked properly.

dare2think: Regardless of what may have happenned, I would have invited him anyway and leave him with the option of attending or not.
Most of the people who attended are there only because of his status and the status of the wedding.
Bar a few, majority are opportunists. They are not his friends.


Never in a millon way will I neglect to invite someone that I suffered with and had history with. Even if we are not talking, I may even use this opportunity to mend the issue.
Only reason I may not invite him is if he had plotted my downfall or death, or tried it with my woman.
Anything else, I'd have invited an old buddy

Life goes on and it does not end at a particular point, it turns.

baby_123: It is, to a woman it is a serious slight and insult of the highest order. Some of them keep quiet and live for their kids, others it is even the second wife that kills off the first wife and kids. Some others just kill the man silently, to speed up the sharing of the property before he brings in 3rd and 4th wife. The first wife is mostly pained because 90% chance she married for love. The others coming dont care as the probably married for convenience and the money. Any woman that tells you she is ok with sharing a man she loves is a very big liar.

fashizie: Our mindset in this part of the world is so pathetic.firstly,its not rite to bring in a 2nd wife because every human is jealous.the husband wont even take it.however,tryin to justify murder because a man is plannin to marry anoda is insane.dats why women in africa ve lost all form of respect from the men.dey cant jst let go,even when the union is becomin unbearable.all because of status n wot people will say.
Thats why u ll see a woman cheatin on her husband n still protectin her marriiage wit. Iron fist.we shuld all learn to let go of sumtin aint workin out.if u go check,dat woman mite ve defiled her matrimonial bed in time past.those type are the most jealous.
Not surportin nobody.jst my 5cent.

e-talker:
Let him come to OAU and we'd see if he will graduate with a Second class Upper


Congrats to him (Private school and their hypes)
I pray he actualize his dream of becoming a World Bank President.

Davico: Come to OAU Ife(great Ife)
