This is an interesting one. If, for some reasons, this man eventually gets labelled as a deadbeat dad 30yrs down the line, who would be there to explain all of these his earlier travails in the hands of the baby mama and her mother? |
Smh |
This man! The coming of Dangote refinery really exposed a lot about you guys in that NNPC. Well, of course, by now, you would have accumulated as much money to bribe the whole lot of the rogue EFCC officials and the gangs of useless judges in Nigeria! |
dibunotion:This made me laugh quite a bit ![]() |
ValCon888:Sometimes they try to be proactive but people will try to shout them down. There was a recent case about a Mentorship program (by one Dr John Doe). EFCC tried to alert and sensitize the populace, instead Nigerians began to defend the person, accusing EFCC of trying to kill the man's business or something. Tell me, if this same man carts people's money away, won't they still say EFCC is not proactive enough? |
Cool ![]() But then, when I hear a person built a car from scratch, I always want to know about the engine. Did he build the engine as well? He may have fabricated the body of the vehicle which is, no doubt, a feat in its self and should be praised. But if he indeed built his own engine, then Nigeria and Nigerians by all means, regardless of current woes, must fully support him, against all odds. |
Adakintroy:I was trying to understand your second sentence. Mind to explain a little further? |
I still don't like Fuji tho Shout out to Juju Music lovers #JujuMusicgang ![]() Belurved1:And you had to colour this with religion and not the culture represented in language used to sing, music instruments and more importantly oratory tradition passed down to listeners in the form of proverbs, folklore etc? For clarity sake, my comment is from a personal observation of lifestyles of both genres. Fuji musicians are more of social, party and while Juju musicians also party, they advocate caution/restraint in life. And of course, the folklore. As far I am concerned, Yorubas listen to both. Whether traditionalists, Muslims or Christians. In fact, I know quite a number of Christians who like Fuji more. I know non-Yoruba who prefer Fuji. I simply prefer Juju for lifestyle reasons, not religion. |
These are the sort of things we should be seeing. Not a gang of house assembly members travelling all the way to London and elsewhere for leisure and relaxation and one is left wondering if there are not enough places within the country for their 'retreats'? A country with citizens/leaders who never believe in their own country ![]() |
Weyrey say he wants to 'born' for Burna.. Funny guy ![]() |
How did your clothes get bloodied? |
JAMO84:No bro, this is where you are wrong. Where your religion affects other people, it becomes everybody's problem. If you drag a Muslim to sharia court for blasphemy, it's understandable. I have read that happening in the north. He is a Muslim, that is what he subscribed to. But you cannot apply sharia to non-muslims. Interestingly, the northern mob never spares a non-muslim long enough to even be taken to any court. They kill them on the spot! |
Thank you ECOWAS. It is simply barbaric. Human beings should have rational intellect. You fully agree and say it by yourselves that muhammad is not God. If he was indeed a mere mortal, why do you kill for him? Is this to say that as you go about everyday life, when a person insults you yourselves, you fight with the intent to kill the other person? Or someone insults any one of your relatives, you start a fight with intent to kill? So why kill because a man (a mortal man like yourself) is being insulted? It's really just difficult relating with a muslim, you never know what you'd say and he's already thinking ill of you, waiting for an opportunity to kill and behead. Why is it that when a muslim says 'blasphemous' things he is taken to court but once a non-muslim is accused, even without proof, he is killed on the spot. No questions asked. You have intolerant practices that make other people scared, then you turn around and find ways to kill them. If not totally abolished, basphemy laws should be applicable to only muslims. Just why on earth is blasphemy even a crime?! |
OBA117:Might really not be about the money. Maybe I should add that it's actually 300,000 in total. And asides this, some money would have gone into organising and logistics too. We really shouldn't put people on pedestals they didn't put themselves. That's what she can afford. |

What exactly do you mean by 'de-radicalization'? People who have killed civilians, women and children unprovoked? Don't even compare all these charades with militants being reintegrated. Militants fought against government (security agencies) directly. |
Well, I am curious though. At what point did this plan of hers you discovered come in? Was it a plan she devised after finding out you have sickle cell? Or was this a plan she has always had all her life? If the latter, then you need not worry your head. It's a fair game, life only matched both of you. But if this is a plan she had after learning of your condition, swallow the guilt pill and try to apologize. Nobody likes being used. Thankfully, your kids are ok. |

If you married in any religious/cultural setting that puts a man as head of family, than you are obligated to go along with your husband's decision. However, if there are genuine reasons why you must change church, it should be a conversation between partners. Convince yourselves, if no agreement is reached, you're bound by duty to go with your husband's decision, as he is bound by duty to lead aright. You should not marry a man who cannot lead you. |
Jamiejames:Chief, you sound like a rational man. For whatever it's worth, let me drop you a word. You have shown yourself a honourable man, having made sacrifices and provided support to the young child and her mother both in care and with finances, over the years. This is commendable. In caring for her, you have shown yourself a caring dad. But you are not her father. These narratives peddled to legitimise you as her biological father does not stand any logical argument. Not a scientific, religious or any other argument for that matter can substantiate you being referred to as her biological father. In this angle, she will also feel incomplete with a void only the truth can fill. Don't attempt to smuggle yourself into her heart on wrong premises and in due time this might reverse all the credits you are worthy of. And in fact, you can't tell how she'd perceive the issue. Possibly, as lies? She may think of herself as having lived life on lies. This could be traumatizing. In the end, affecting same mental health you care about. Truth is truth. At the crux of creation, it takes only one sperm and an egg to produce a foetus. If it's not your sperm, it's not your DNA. If it's not your DNA, them it's not your child. No guise can stand as truth. In conscience, as with any sane legal court. Except, of course, we go 'woke'. You must desist from that fleeting illusion, and face reality. You owe it a duty to let her know. And genuinely let her come to terms and decide what path she forges. You and your wife should not box her into your false narratives. Face your reality and not shy away from it. You can hate this all your want, but she is your step-daughter. And you, her stepfather. If you cannot ponder the difference between stepfather and father, then you do not deserve any further counsel. |
3Csbutterfly:Bro, you should have sensed the type of gang that are about to be unleashed on you. More of the other may arrive later, so brace up for their bile. You should be mindful of boards you post topics. Since what you seek is almost entirely medical, you should have gone to where there are more chances of getting responses from medical practitioners. These ones will simply trivialise your issues and ridicule you. In the end, instead of helpful suggestions and advice you seek, the thread will degenerate into a toxic banter over this gender and that gender. |
Juliearth:Whoever is behind that moniker lacks emotional intelligence. I have seen you try to engage her on a another thread. She is brilliant (maybe, even AI assisted brilliance), but not intelligent. |
All hail the king! Ki ade pe l'ori, ki bata pe l'ese. |
Authorities and thoughts leaders worldwide need to start looking into 'False Accusation' with a view to consider victims of false accusations. |
abobote: ![]() I laugh in Turanchi! |
When there was rumours of military coup, genuine Nigerians were concerned. Concerned because, having democracy in mind, we do not want the military anywhere near power again. Then Tinubu carries raw meat dripping with blood and hands it over to a lion cub to look after. After this civilian coup Tinubu has done against Democracy, how will the people resist a coup when the person they feared for is the one inviting them to taste power all over again. What moral justification will you have against a military coup? |
If you are not the one experiencing a situation you want to post, or it's a copied post, simply indicate it. Else it makes mockery of people's suggestions, advice and time. |
Whatever solutions/advice you seek will always start with you shedding more light on the issue. Have you had conversations with her about this, how it happens, how she feels before and after it happens and what it portends for her, you, the children and family as a whole? What are her chain of thoughts like before and after the act? Is it impulsive or premeditated? Are there signs of remorse? Are there particular items she specifically takes? Does she have need for those items or just random items she does not need. The answer here is a pointer to whether it is indeed kleptomania or not. Kleptomaniacs have no material nor financial need for the things they take. They mostly can conveniently afford them. Also, is this a recent development? I mean, did she just start this? Or has she always been like this, while courting? What triggers it? Hopefully, telling her parents is not 'reporting' her but a loving way to find a solution/better insight. This will need you to be really calm and patient. |
Kobojunkie:By all means, allow people their opinions. At the very least, you can ask them to explain their perspectives to understand better before you counter. You exclaimed 'nonsense!', went ahead to give an opinion. You expect that nonsense you wrote up there as an opinion is right? I'd allow you have that as your opinion. But please, don't quote me again. I no get energy. |
Hello Spectrix, I could give you some paid advice. But I will give you one for free. Don't do porn. As you have rightly found, it doesn't help. Although a decade is quite some time and being 'used to each other' could bring in the lacklustre, F has a lot more to do on this issue for a mutually enjoyable experience. By the way, what's 'bullet' expected to do? Help you enjoy it more? Or help you get better at it? lol The man with whom a woman has her first experience matters. |
Yes, I agree with you. Those that killed Deborah are not bigger than Nigeria. Please bring them to justice. |
Spineless lots. It will be a big shame to you all if Tinubu opens Deborah's case and brings the wrongdoers to justice. |
