Annoms:
I'll try to make this short.

Yesterday I was having a conversation with my fiancée about my mum's suggestion about how to go about our wedding which is scheduled to take place Jan next year. My mum suggested that we do both trad and white wedding on the same day to cut cost. She opined that we do the white wedding in the morning and hold the traditional marriage as a reception in the afternoon. I pretty much see reasons from her perspective considering the harsh economic condition in Nigeria.

I was relating this to my fiancée yesterday in a phone call, when she flared up and said I should have consulted her to seek her opinion on this marriage arrangement before going to my family to seek theirs because I said my mum's advise seems okay.

What I deduce from her plight was that she wants the trad marriage at the village (south-east) while the white at the town where we base (South-West). That was what I initially wanted but due to high inflation in the land, I'm actually tilting towards my mum advise because I can't go bankruptcy just because I want to satisfy her. Why not use a stone to kill two birds?

She wants a cream-de-la-cream kind of wedding but she's not ready to assist financially to make that happen. (she's an awaiting corper)

I told her that the cost of transportation and lodging people from the village (hers and mine) to the city for our white marriage alone is gulping about 500/600k. That's transportation & lodging alone ooo.. I'll now spend if not x2 of what I spent on trad for white.. Why not just do everything in the village and move on with our lives? We can actually have it in the village and it will still be all nice and glamourous.

She said she wants to have a say in how her marriage will look like. Her imput is welcomed. But if she still insist on having the white wedding and not putting finances into consideration. I'm thinking that she want the white wedding on the city because of her friends who will attend which is not enough reason to go bankruptcy for.

It was a heated argument yesterday. We both went to bed angrily and not in talking terms till now

Pls advice accordingly. Thanks

Righteousness2:
The flogging is good discipline, Highly commendable! Probably it will Reset her brain.

Folly abounds in the heart of a child, but the Rod of Correction will Drive it far from him/her.

The flogging should not be to the point of death or to kill her.

We thank the police for setting the record straight as corroborated by the eminent professor's son.
No thanks to all the social media propagandists who want to set the country on fire by instigating ethnic violence.

If something goes missing, will you just enter a person compound without permission... SMH. Thats trespass! and its punishable under the problematic 1999 constitution

Kaduna1stson:
Why do you people want to impeach a northern president? We did not impeach obasanjo or Jonathan.

Thats the mindset of every illiterate like u

Nobody is asking about origin, we are asking for good governance... the former 2 you mentioned also had thier own impeachment threats....

At least the nortlh u come from has been taken over banditry...we are fighting for a better country and not tribal war....

blacknp:
A bad orientation, supposed leaders of tomorrow still fighting gang wars in the Universities?

The politicians use them for thier own advantage.. dump them with weapons and leave them to their mercy...

If my own orientation is bad

May be the current is better and u guys will keep up like this... u will beg for the latter

festacman:
The remarkable thing about this Lagos Senatorial election is that the "Sorosoke youths", the "we move youths", the "werey wan disguise youths" who vowed on TWITTER to teach Jagaban a bitter lesson on this election day didn't do any sh*t to help Gbadamosi who counted on their support. I bet most of them still don't even know that the election has taken place until the results are announced on Sunday.

Nigerian youths are not serious yet to use its numerical strength. Believe me, the same politicians will continue rule Nigeria after 2023 elections, moving back and forth APC and PDP to cash out while the sorosoke hype will continue loke loke online thereafter.

An educated and perfect write up.... You said it all.

The change we want will never happen because ofbthe lazy youths

Faber:
He whom the gods wants to kill they first make deaf...

They don make Buhari deaf. The youths expected him to sack the IGP or take other tough decisions on the security chiefs.. but no way. So am disappointed to tell you that the protest will hit a crescendo now

PerfectlyPerfect:
lolz. This one pain me. Anyways, my point is that we should stop saying not to punish kids when they do wrong. Flogging is a type of punishment. We that our parents flogged, we didn't die and it made most of us better people

I understand you perfectly.. what me im trying say is simple.. know when to use the rod but for cases like this and as an adult like that... Floging will make her more hardened... The day she goes to university... her father should just forget her... i support flogging but not all instance.

I remember the day my dad caught me with babe after he warned me... He woke me up by 12midnight to his room, told me to sit down... he calculated all he spent on me that year .. and told me to pay him back... i had to go and do hard labour on the house wey I'm dey build... i carry block tire ... since then I no do again...

These punishments still sinks better than flogging

floging is for instant mistajes and not well planned mistakes

PerfectlyPerfect:
Absolute crap.

you that your dad told to leave here ... with all the flowing did you hear word?
