moyes on rooney tackle

"The boy (Mutch) runs across his path and there's a bit of a tussle, but I didn't think it deserved any more than a yellow card,"

"I don't think it was a lashing-out, I think it was more that he felt hard done-by with the boy running across his path with the ball.

"I didn't think it was a lash out to cause any harm, I think it was more of a disappointment that he lost the ball."

now compare that comment to this one....

moyes on young's diving

Moyes said: "I don't want my players diving. It's not what I want.
"Dikgacoi definitely throws his leg out but Ashley put his leg into his leg."

debosky: Seriously guys, what's up with RVP? Is he injured or what?

Maybe that Dutch coach was right about Moyes and his backward training methods.

moyes has messed up RVP's special training routine. he now gets injured in training, not on the football pitch. RVP had a flawless fitness in 11/12(arsenal) & 12/13(man utd) when he copped 38 league match appearances in each of those seasons ......

maybe it's a ploy to give the fat scouser more games & sideline RVP. moyes' tongue is way up rooney's rectum. he couldn't even condemn rooney's atrocious tackle in his post-match interview. he was still trying to justify the tackle.

yellowpawpaw: Mr Coogar,
I asked u a very simple question two or three days back and I can c u completely ignored it and that made me feel and look stupid.I don't think that to ask someone how he is when he said he is dizzy is a bad statement but I asked the wrong guy else he would hv replied. I'm sure u must hv answered it had it been one of ur "group" asked that.
I don't do group here.

this is hilarious.....
what the heck are you talking about? what question? surely i must have missed it. what i meant by not feeling my face & dizziness was because of the voluminous family debate i had to read & judge. it's nothing medical. how can i ignore a whole you? a ripe yellow pawpaw like you? if it was pineapple or mango then you might have a point but pawpaw?? i like pawpaw with all my heart.

abort such thoughts, it's not worth conceiving

There is what we call simple courtesy.
Its exactly what Dayo did on dat thread where I congratulated him on his marriage.
My moniker became insignificant immediately he wanna reply even though I was d first to congratulate him. Assuming he didn't qoute others I wouldn't hv seen it as an insult to my online personae.

i think you are being a bit sensitive.
there's no reason for dayo or anyone to ignore your comments. the lack of acknowledgement is not deliberate. sometimes, there's a lot on my mind & there are other sections(sports, travel, etc) i visit on this forum and they tend to take my time. how many comments can one reply to?

I've been around here a while to c the kind of discrimination that goes on here which is very unhealthy especially from the men.They select whom to reply their posts or channel their arguments to. Others that chips in r completely ignored. Very few of u guys don't do that.

discrimination in the family section?
come on - are you really serious or you are just yanking my chain? i reply everyone especially if my spider senses tell me the poster is a cute female. don't worry, from now on you are going to get bombarded by me with good morning, afternoon, evening, have you eaten? have you slept? have you peed?

(If u like chew me, ypp cares not. I say it as I c it)

i have no teeth to chew with....i can't feel my teeth.

jennykadry: Abeg Coogar stop that rough play . Male circumcision must go on. No way is an uncircumcised d***k attractive to sh@g

it's not like uncircumcised females are visually-pleasing to the males as well. i cannot count the number of times i have had to wear blindfolds or a ski-mask to complete the task.

kandiikane: Well, yes. they have portable ones for stay at home dads in Asda. Your wife can pump bweast milk every morning before going to work and you can use formula for the rest of the day.

i earn considerably higher than my partner so there's no economic sense in me staying at home. you need to learn some economics & take your sexist views to a public loo.

besides, how do stayathome dads cope with other mums in the nursery school. a man would generally be an outcast singing nursery rhymes with other mums.

the roles are not interchangeable until men start giving birth to babies. the innate ability to care & nurture is exclusive to women. from feeding to cleaning to speech development of the child.

kandiikane: Why don't you be a stay at home father?

would that be because i have mammary glands to feed my baby with? see her mouth like stayathome?

i thought everyone did well. the quality of their work was top drawer. one can easily tell all the contestants were well prepared for the battle - this is arguably the best debate i have witnessed on this forum. TV01 & lerrie-john were very brilliant & articulate with their points. if only lerrie-john could use the "quote" button well, she could have accrued more points.

that being said, efemena impressed me the most. she deserves to make the final for having taken a very strong position and making it into an even stronger one. as everyone would recall, she executed a delicately maneuvering chess move at the rebuttal stage by taking part of her adversary's argument and turning it to her own purpose.

efe, i want to hire you - i need a 20,000 word essay to present to the WHO to criminalise male genitäl mutilation. my fee is decent, N1 per word.

ROSSIKE: You are NOT in Nigeria. Look at this welfare benefit claimant claiming to be in Nigeria. Who gave an unemployed, penniless butt scratcher like you money for flight? Who could bear your hideous odour on a plane? Your breath alone is enough to make a plane crash.

says the product of a same sex marriage -

i have been to nigeria more than you have been to college. unemployed? penniless? malodorous? why are you telling us what you are suffering from?

my dog lives a more comfortable life than you do. the frustration in nigeria has transformed you into a nervous wreck. mosquitoes, heat from the dry season & the ancestral curse you have been battling since birth....

how much problem can a midget carry on his back?

Nasty dog/pig combo you. Who caused the 'crisis' and 'invasion' of foreign peoples? Not your slavemaster? We should excuse him because he slaughtered millions of our people in his own unprovoked invasions? Are you really that unintelligent? Look at the MILLIONS of men. women and children murdered all over the world by your bandit looter slavemaster which you happily support, while playing ''civilized'' over an ancient practice by a few villagers. Colonised baboon with the brain of a gnat. You should be in a khaki shirt and shorts like Icheoku, playing happy grinning servant to your massa.

you are a miserable cünt.....
why are you twitching because i am giving you a roasting session on your own thread. since when have imbecilës like you with the IQ of a mollusc started giving opinion on a national issue?

there must be poison in your father's nuts to produce a rhesus monkey like yourself. keep ranting about slavemaster while your brothers are dying in the deserts of libya. bloody hypocrite, i am 100% certain if a slaveship berths in lagos today it would be you & your poverty-stricken family that would jump into it.

For equilibrium to be restored in your head, your mother has to stop screwing stray dogs in your London council estate.

but it was your mother that got stoned to death by 20 able-bodied men at the borders of your village for infidelity. little wonder you cannot be straight with your facts - lying to us libya's population is 4 million & their low population is the only reason they live a prosperous than nigerians.

if the population of nigeria is 1 million, your politicians would steal more, you schmuk. you are too daft to realise you are being shafted on your own soil. you must have inherited the dominant genes of your mother - it's not hard to perceive the apple does not fall far from the tree alcoholic slüt that dropped it.

The remnant of all the millions your slavemaster has murdered are already working on your brain, hence your demented support for global mass murder, you putrid product of a a dog/pig/gorilla copulation.

shut the fück up you homoerotic statutory räpist. if there's anything resembling hell in the afterlife, i have no iota of doubt you and your baby-eating family would be sucking satan's scrotum while being fisted by a legion of goblins.

dayokanu: Whose surname would the baby bear?

idowuogbo's

ibime getting undressed yet again by bitchboy

montelik: fine, he could land on trouble. but I totally agree with him. Martin Tyler spent the entire 1st half. and most of the 2nd half constantly yaking about his tackle. in fact his whole performance was so poor even my sister ( a strong ABU) noticed his agenda driven commentary. it was incredibly off putting.

how do you defend this?

StarBoard: It still doesn't justify Rooney's twitter rampage.
He was foolish to lash out and deserves every bit of criticism for that stupid kick.
We all thought he had learnt from the debacle in Montenegro, but no, the fat runt still lashes out like it is his right to win every tackle.

the match was only 7 mins gone. up until then, there was no incident that suggested rooney could be angry or whatever. what went off in his head that prompted such a disgraceful tackle? frustration after just 7 mins or what?

we were lucky it wasn't webb or atkinson, we would have had to play 83 mins with 10 men & in the absence of RVP. on top of it all, rooney missed a big chance that could have gotten us the 3 points.

sexymoma: sweerie am not that desperate!!

it's not desperation, it's a contract!
better to get paid for getting pregnant than letting a sweet-talking boyfriend of yours do it free of charge & even deny responsibility.

sexymoma - you should consider!

sexymoma: While you guy are here interrogating him... some ladies are already typing to his e-mail address. My own question is when she gets preggy will you introduce her to your parent?... For Future Purposes. i think ya wealth is intoxicating you.

you mean you have sent him a mail already? you don't waste time, do you?

explorer001: hello nairalanders, i am new here and i joined this forum because of my desire to find a lady that will be interested in us having a baby together. I am ready to take care of her during the pregnancy period and after child birth and also take full responsibility of my child. I am working and financially stable just that i don't believe in marriage...don't see myself signing a for life agreement that i know i can't keep. However, i love to have a baby of my own even if its just one before i'll adopt one or two more as planned. Please friends, i am serious about this and i only want a matured lady between the age of 26-35. I am 30yrs old. Interested lady can contact me on this email.....diddy.diddy@yahoo.com. Thanks.

how are we sure you don't have staph, herpes or even HIV? can you post the results of your last comprehensive medical checkup?

this rooney is an idïot....
he went on twitter to start talking shyte about martin tyler & graeme souness. the FA can actually charge him for that now & suspend him. why is this fatfück out of control?

www.nairaland.com/attachments/1433179_image_jpg0d5b1c4c7f720f698946c7f6ab08f687

calling souness sourness? hmmmm.

StarBoard: How about our forward play?
any positive going forward?

forward play with rooney deciding to pass when scoring was the easier & logical option?

ROSSIKE: Thanks. Your mum gives free head to council estate stray dogs...that's why you're so rabid.

enough of your idiöcy on this thread - you are a patient of trisomy-13 & this is why you throw fits similar to a photosensitive epileptic patient.

A London based asylum seeker for 30 years straight has the nerve to question Nigerians? When last were you in Nigeria?

i'm currently in nigeria & the heap of corruption is the worst i have seen. no wonder transparency international ranks nigeria 172nd out of the 215 countries surveyed as far as international financial corruption is concerned. the country is derelict, dysfunctional & downright dangerous - animals shouldn't even live in nigeria, let alone humans.

Who prosecuted the following for their war crimes in the massacres I'm about to list?
All the massacres of Africans and other native populations across the world were justified? The massacre of a million Iraqis was justified? The massacre of millions of native Americans was justified? The massacre of millions of Congolese by the Belgians was justified? The massacre of the entire city of Benin in 1897 was justified? The massacre of thousands of Zulus in SA and Shona people in Zimbabwe was justified? The massacre of 60,000 Japanese in Hiroshima was justified? The massacre of the same number in Nagasaki was justified? The massacre of millions of Europeans by their own people in the Crusades was justified? The massacre of a combined 100 million Europeans in European War 1 and European War 2 was justified? The massacre of 30 million people during the Christian Inquisitions was justified?

you are a ruminant animal....
look at the list yourself & compare to the deliberate killing of infants at birth. no crisis, no invasion, no civil war. babies being maimed like people give hugs & handshakes & you are not even ashamed to defend this practise?

But the killing of a few babies in a remote corner of rural Igboland was monstrously evil and barbaric! You really take the biscuit as a colonial slave. Somebody needs to declare war on you and bomb you and your entire dog peee drinking family to smithereens and call it "justified", you two-faced, repulsive animal.

for equilibrium to be restored in nigeria, an asteroid must collide with all the members of your baby-eating family members & burn all of them to ashes.

the souls of the babies your entire family tree has killed would cry & wail to prevent your ancestors from resting in peace, you product of a bestiality union.

dademola: like ruddie rightly pointed out; assuming twas kagawa that made d pass, u'd hav uploaded gifs frm different angles! I still reiterate; giggs produced a moment of genius wif that pass, and it was worthy of a goal!!

because kagawa would have passed the ball more accurately during the course of the match. kagawa would have contributed more than giggs. he would have pressed the ball more & he has a bigger fear factor for the opponents than giggs can ever be.

ROSSIKE: Thanks, and your mother is a lobotomised gorilla. Your father a kangaroo/dog hybrid, and you, a nondescript, ugly mongrel of indeterminate species.

this is rich coming from a product of a polyandrous marriage. your rants here simply suggest you lost your virginity to one of the several husbands of your mother.

onye nzuzu....

Yes. TELL US WHAT PART OF NIGERIA YOU COME FROM. Personally I do not believe you are a Nigerian. Prove me wrong. What have you got to hide? I am Igbo. What ethnicity are you? We want to know why this topic is of interest to you. Who are you?

anuofia, you are igbo?
the ndigbos reject a bastärd son like yourself. what about you is even remotely igbo? look at this cameroonian refugee claiming igbo? just because nigerian soldiers rescued you doesn't make you igbo - go & adopt another country.

You are saying all war is justified? You are an even worse vampire than I thought.

all the world wars are justified - both parties enter a dialogue & choose the battlefield to settle their score. all is fair in war & any criminal activity during wars get prosecuted after the war. all the known war criminals during the holocaust were convicted, some got executed!!

it stands to reason that if you are exporting as much oil as Nigeria and have just 3 or 4 million mouths to feed, your people will live a more prosperous life than 170 million Nigerians on the same income. Even a bonehead knows that. Or are you on drugs?

so how come your staggering population of 170 million does not affect the wages of your politicians? what a mongolian idiöt you are.

if the average nigerian cannot have a more prosperous life than the average libyan then so should the nigerian politicians not live better than the libyan politicians. a nigerian senator earns £122,000 per year while the minimum wage in nigeria is £1,000 per year.

can you not see the ridiculous range?
like i have said, you have no common sense.

Thanks. Now tell us who you are and what part of Nigeria you are from. Can you speak any Nigerian language?

onye ara.....

dademola: this is very unfair! Wot abt d games against soceidad and liverpool at OT? Giggs was one of our better players in those matches! Assuming rooney wasnt an 1diot yestdy, giggs wlda provided d match winning assist! Though i Agree he is clearly past his time, his overall performance in d games in wich he played has been faaaar better than that of a good number of our players who are playing regularly!

this is my problem with arguments like this.

does one good pass compensate for pot passing accuracy, inability to close down, lack of energy, lack of drive & increase in the pressure the opponents mount on our defence?

basically - i am a good player as long as i provide one or two assists & regardless of how many times i have given the ball away, put my defence into pressure, lacking the energy to track back, etc.

ROSSIKE: Low IQ alert. All our roads have to be tarred first before they can show ONE tarred road. Your parents need a refund on your education. You reason like a reta.rded brute.

so i need a refund when you cannot even get your facts right. what a lout!!! one needs an electron microscope to see your IQ.....better go home & nurse the grievous body wounds i have inflicted on you.

the next time i see you praise-singing your idiotic country, i shall piss in your nostrils. i am your nemesis on this forum for as long as you keep fawning your greedy politicians.

ROSSIKE: Foreign dunce. I thought you claimed millions of babies were killed by Igbos? I then broke down the numbers and now it is merely a "widely accepted practise". Have you ever picked up a single book on African history in your entire worthless life to know what was what? You are not even a Nigerian, as I'm starting to conclude. Tell us, what part of Naija are you from? Can you speak any Nigerian language? I know the answer. No. So who are you really and what do you want here?

when your creator was distributing intelligence, you were at the back of the queue picking your nose & throwing temper tantrums. what did you break down? how in the name of common sense can you come up with a figure when the practise had existed before the white men arrived. do you know for sure if the practise started in the 13th century? 15th? 19th?

you are a lobotomised ape!

Really? Care to tell us where in Nigeria it is a norm? Where and where do you even know in Nigeria, Mr JohnnyForeigner pretending to be a Nigerian?

what has this gotta do with the debate? why do you wanna know where in nigeria i come from? does this advance your point about the poverty levels in nigeria? if not - go eat a dïck!!!

All fair in war. Is that what your blood-drenched masters taught you? Just call it a "war" and you can kill as many millions as you like? Dumbito x10000.

yes - a war is what it is - a war!
people die in war. because of these wars, human relationships have become better. without wars, your arochukwu brothers would have sold your grandfather as a cotton-picker in southern texas.

May the blood of the millions of victims of western massacres which you dismiss as "just wars" return to haunt the rest of your days, you demented, worthless, drug addicted prostitute-born pretender who's never been to Nigeria.

the same western massacre that stood as a united front to fight nazism. the democracy your country is practising today would not be without wars - recite your national anthem again, you homoerotic nuisance.

Illiterate turned economic analyst. Libya's population, like other North African states, is limited to the thin strip of fertile land to the north, with the rest of the country empty desert. Libya has a population of under 4 million, around the same population as Abuja. With even bigger oil reserves than Nigeria. Why would they not live like kings? Meanwhile the west whom you worship have gone in there, and used Al Qaeda terrorists to destroy the person who gave them that life, Ghadaffi, and destroyed the country itself.

libya's population is 6 million...
divide the benefits they get by 30 & the average nigerian should be getting around that. every libyan citizen gets a percentage of the oil proceeds directly into their account. if every nigerian newlywed couple are getting $1,500 bonus, there would be no poverty.

how can you blame population? so population is the reason newlyweds in libya get $50,000 to start a family while an average nigerian gets none? the reason a libyan studying abroad gets $2,000 allowance while the average nigerian student gets zero.

the reason there's no utility bill in libya, the reason there's no interest rates in their banks, the reason there's light & water everywhere, the reason unemployed graduates are paid the same amount they would have gotten if employed?

rossike - you are a disgrace to the citadel of learning that trained you. you should get a refund. every single human being that managed your child development should be arrested for child abuse.

Meanwhile, prove to us you are a Nigerian. What language do you speak?

what a tyke!

Promhize: Now it is confirmed that even though you can write good english (just as stammerers can sing without stammering), your sense of reasoning and comprehension is below 0, cos OP blamed no one for anything.

your comprehensive skills are zero...
yes, the OP blamed the west for negatively projecting nigeria to the rest of the world. the pertinent question remains - is the western media projecting a false image of nigeria?

if all our roads are tarred, would the west show the dusty road in congo & claim it's nigeria? until you start to admit there's a problem in nigeria, the road to redemption would keep growing longer.

Promhize: Woe betide you from this day onward for taking this to where you just took it.

may the gods of your land destroy you!!!

Promhize: What stup.id, foolish minority are you whining about? So to you only those living in lekki, magodo, GRA are the well-to-do ones.

Same stu.pid statistics, 70% under 1$. My friend you are foolish, I won't say more than that. That you even believe the $400b, lmao, $400b! You are sick.

i don't blame you - the recipient of your y-chromosomes should have used it as listerine to floss her plaque-stained teeth.

ROSSIKE: Slave. You think only 1% of Nigerians live in proper houses? Dumb cretin with nothing upstairs.

i already told you your standard is in the sewers, no wonder your countrymen prefer to walk bare-footed on sun-baked sands of libya & hundreds died while crossing to europe.

you are a cretinous charlatan...

Uncle Tome. Who is referring to your cosy group of sandal wearing cosmopolitans? Dummy. We are talking of the man in the street on the west, and indeed throughout the world, not your narrow circle of pampered contractors and NGOs.

you should have been aborted - the man in the street knows africa isn't where wild animals roam. gone are those days - you must be talking of the last century. stop feeding us nonsense with your subzero intelligence quotient

Reta.rd. You actually think a few Igbo villagers killed millions if babies a year? Talk about colonial miseducation gone wild. Pray, where are the ass graves of all those "millions of babies"? What was the population of all Igboland in the 18th century? Probably less than a million. How many would be twin babies in say a 5th of the territory? Probably less than a 100 a year. So what madness would drive you to claim "millions" of babies were killed if not for your slavish ignorance and stupidity?

it was a widely-accepted practise. history only documented where it was stopped - not everywhere it was practised. till this day, human sacrifices is still a norm in nigeria so continue to plumb the depths of idiöcy by denying everything presented to you.

Uncle Tom self hater, you really wish to compare the millions of infants slaughtered by the west in all her massacres of foreign populations with what a few villagers did in a remote corner of Eastern Nigeria in a few years? Where does one start educating a slave dullard like you on the scale western barbarism? Should we start with the Holocaust? Do you know how many children were gassed by Europeans as recently as the 1940s, and thrown in mass graves?

look at this homoerotic peasant......
it's all fair in a war. how can you compare world war 2, holocaust, etc to a cultural practise? what war were they fighting in eastern nigeria when children were being murdered. even in the last 5 years, we have heard of people like you maiming children who have been branded witches......but i expect you to deny this as well.

rossike - you are the spërm cell your mum should have swallowed with a cold glass of milk. there's no point allowing you to live & exist in a world of humans. you are a decomposing sore on the face of humanity. i hope you catch a stray bullet for justifying the killing of babies in your village.

You know NOTHING about "terrorism". You are a media influenced buffoon led by the nose. Liar. Like your slavemasters.

like i have told you, i would school you & your entire ancestors about terrorism. you should be ashamed of yourself & the country you are defending. i am starting to think your tongue is a permanent occupant in the arsë of nigerian politicians.

We know you have a low IQ, but among intelligent people, that a country is developing does not equate it to a place where there is nothing. 80% of nations on earth have challenges on power supply and such infrastructure. We will not be insulted or made to feel uniquely bad because we are in development. Every nation passed through our stage. Slaves like you are irrelevant in our match to progress.

and he further exposes his folly yet again...
are you not ashamed of yourself? a country as rich as ours, blessed with infinite natural resources & human resources is developing? compare your country to libya.

they both produce oil.....libyans don't pay utility bills & yet there's power & tarred roads everywhere - libya is 2-4 times as big as nigeria in land mass. they have clean portable water, constant power, etc. why isn't nigeria like this? rossike, you have the intelligence of a mosquito.

Shut up your dirty stinking mouth... miserable self hater. Remain in Europe hating yourself, while real Nigerians continue to grow the economy.

grow the economy or die in abject poverty? your life expectancy is barely 50. if you are 40+ already then there's no hope for you. you better start writing your will before armed robbers put you 6 feet under, you miserable sod.

how can you defend a country as soulless like nigeria? how many months now has ASUU been on strike & yet your politician acquired £1m worth of bullet-proof vehicles as if that's the primary concern of the average nigerian.....

Keep pulling out phantom statistics from your stinky backside and expect anyone here to take you seriously. Worthless Uncle Tom.

in the punditry of hard currency, your intelligence(at best) is the zimbabwean dollar.

if you have a problem with me speaking the truth, please write it nicely on a piece of paper, fold it up, and shove it down your throat, you recto-cranially inverted aśswipe!!

Promhize: As dumb as your username sounds, foreign aid? CNN profits from just ads? suck your foreign aid up your shithole, biatch!

look who's talking - you have the intelligence quotient of a pubic louse. what do you know about the topic of discourse? do you even have the mental capacity to understand or you think this is a paraga joint where urchins of your ilk can speak?

ileobatojo: I understand that. But what I was trying to say is that respondents to surveys are usually savvy in the US and Australia where the study is from. So say for instance, they had the respondents fill out confidential questionnaires answering questions about abuse, I don't think too many women in these parts would decide to lie about that even if they were married. Remember, for anything to be done about the marriage, the abusee needs to come forward and specifically press charges or something. The women know that researchers cannot just come and interfere with their marriages because of what they put down in a questionnaire.

On the other hand, if the data was obtained from police or court records from abusees who came forward, I could see how there might be some discrepancy between marrieds and cohabitants.

even in these countries there are underlying issues. i once read a report in california where domestic violence workers were telling abused women not to disclose the abuse they have suffered to mediators.

women received worse mediation if they reveal they were being abused/had been abused in california - perhaps because millions of people continue to use this technicality, it has gotten to a point that mediators don't longer believe such tales unless there's a police report.

ifyalways: I'm curious. Who is Lerie?

Where dem nld resident cohabiters-in-sin, Dayo,Coogar and co? Lerie has "spokes", y'all should stay still,listen and amend your lives.

nothing can make me change my cohabiting habits. think about it - cooked food, sleeping on fresh sheets, well-ironed clothes, clean apartment & quality sex every evening. lerrie is only preaching to the penguins.

ileobatojo: Hmmm, possible. So perhaps, the numbers may be spuriously inflated but I would really think this would be negligible unless the data was obtained from police reports or something. A married woman who wants to save her marriage should still be able to give an independent interviewer the correct answer as long as there would be no legal repercussions.

a married woman is more likely to want to work things out than a live-in lover. most women won't admit things are bad until things have gotten really bad. the numbers are over-exaggerated.

Have you read any abuse threads on NL? It wouldn't seem so!

i have but the nigerian scene is different. marriage is like religion to us. the pressure heaped on women to get married in Nigeria is ridiculous. the society is harsh on them thus making them choose wrongly or believing with fasting & praying, mike tyson might become kirk franklin.

Hmmm. Do abusers really outgrow their condition? Or does this only happen when other factors for instance alcohol and drug use contribute to the abuse?

you are more likely to find a 21 year-old live-in boyfriend than you would find a 21 year-old married man. most males in this age bracket are hardly mature. they drink, use substances & mostly are not responsible enough to take care of their partners.

in any case, it's important not to mislead women to avoid live-in boyfriends & only shack up with husbands. things like how her partner manages anger, his drinking habits, etc are more crucial issues. a wedding ring won't make an abuser decent & the lack of a wedding ring won't turn a decent guy into a monster.

ileobatojo: Stunning numbers. Any theories from the study as to why this is so in these two countries? Is there a certain profile of women that choose to cohabit that puts them at increased risk to be abused? And the men? Why are they more abusive in cohabitation arrangements than marriage?

it's a no-brainer.
marriage complicates things. a married woman is less likely to admit her marriage is abusive to an interviewer than a live-in girlfriend.

besides, abusive boyfriends are also less likely to get married because no woman would commit herself eternally to an abusive loser but willing to do a try-out or experiment(cohabiting)

age is another factor. the average age of a cohabitor is 30, the average age of a married person is 44. maturity = responsibility. one would expect a 44 year old man to be more responsible than a 30 year old on a level playing field.

ROSSIKE: Dullard alert. Common sense should tell you that if it is shown one in a thousand times, it might as well never be shown as its impact is neglibible.

what a ridiculous thing to say - if it's shown one in a thousand times then it simply means far majority of nigerians live below the poverty line & the gold paved houses are only exclusive to the elite (1% of the population)

besides, it's irresponsible of you to claim it's 1 in a thousand. i am very sure the ratio is way more than that - you are a pathological liar so why should we even take anything you say seriously?

Which of course is why so many people overseas think all Africans are at war, have AIDS, and live on food aid.

only the semi-illiterates like you think that way. educated europeans know what's up. i stay in europe - i know europeans that have been to nigeria to work as contractors, NGOs or UN assignments and they do not think wild animals roam in our streets.

ROSSIKE: ''During wars''? What ''wars'' did anyone declare against your oyibo masters? Surely you don't mean their massacres of foreign peoples in conquest to appropriate their resources? You really take people here for fools. We should hate our own who killed a few babies a year out of ignorance, and love those who declared ''wars'' on us and other people across the world, slaughtering countless millions, including millions of babies, twin and single? Obviously your brain is working upside down.

you are a pathological liar....
few babies a year or millions of babies a year. that you are even comparing slaughtering of babies to world wars suggest your tësticles float in your cranial cavity. tell us which wars in europe had soldiers maiming babies for the fun of it like your ancestors did?

Forget this terrorism topic. It's way too advanced for an unreformed, mainstream media hypnotized dullard like you.

you are an odious charlatan.....
i would school you & the generations before you about terrorism. you have shown no nous or any common sense on the topic - you just keep throwing conjectures in the air - like drunkards in a beer parlour.

bragging about the quality of life in nigeria is akin to how swines at a refuse dump are oblivious of the dirt/scum they inhabit. this is a country with no ambulances, constant power supply, clean pipe-borne water, fire service, and schools, security, road and rail transport and a functioning judiciary.

the biggest surprise to me is not so much the state of nigeria but the obliviousness of many nigerians to how bad things are. it's either rossike is just trolling or he's genetically rëtarded to actually believe nigeria is el dorado.

if rossike is not ashamed that life expectancy in nigeria is barely 50 and that 99% of the communities in nigeria lack basic amenities then there's really no point engaging him in a debate about the state of nigeria. the troglodyte should be ignored - we should let him wallow alone in his lunacy.

too many info to process....
i feel dizzy & i can't feel my face right now.
