And how exactly is this Buhari's fault again?

RETIREDMUMU:
more sorrow for the igbos, feel the change

And what exactly does this have to do with Buhari?

crazymommy:
Well I cannot speak for other celebrities but am 100% certain that toke makinwa and skales are Nairaland members.... don't ask me how I know..

Go on, i am listening...

jasysandra:
Don't get on her bad side. I know, it's impossible but try as much as you can.

So he should spend the rest of his life walking on egg shells around her? is that what marriage is supposed to be or is that living in bondage?

Nutase:
You either get used to it or take a walk.
The truth about marriage is you CANNOT change anyone.
The only attempt you can make at changing your spouse which has a 50 50 chance of working is to Change your responses towards your spouses weakness and this might appeal to the persons conscience to adjust.

Abi o. That's why they say look before you leap.

Captainbells:
She is ugly

Say what?

Jeromegwer:
I think tribalism is getting too much on this forum

Its getting worse.

mencade5:
Please bear with me. The thread is a bit long. This thread is about me and not my friend. (lol)

i honestly need mature advise from the married and matured folks here.

I am in a very serious relationship with this lady. This is our 12th months together and i plan to propose to her in few months time.

I observe that she has hot temper. Each time we had little misunderstanding she flare up and wouldnt calm down for us to resolve and settle it amicably.

Being a gentleman i believe there are no perfect relationships. Quarrels and disagreements must pop up no matter what.

Yesterday we quarreled due to certain issue we had agreed on. I must confess i caused it but i was quick to realise it and apologise but she wouldnt listen. She made an attempt to call a friend of hers to report the issue. I stopped her. She again wanted to call her pastor too i blocked her hands and was surprise why she is inviting third parties to our matter. She was even voicing it out for people to hear us quarreling and i was calming her down to lower her voice.

This lady is the type every man needs. Religious, good cook, prayerful and she gives me advise on so many occasion.

Her parents are late and she was abandoned by her brothers and sisters due to change of religion. I dont know maybe this affected her attitude.

I myself i have my own wrong sides yet i am ready to accept her wrong and hope she do the same to me. But she wouldnt.

I have talked to her about her anger and made her understand that it is not good for us. Yet yesterdays event surprised me.

Please sorry about the long post. I just need advise or advises about how to handle this issue with my woman.

To add she is 23 and i am 29 years.

Wow! she has anger issues and you still went ahead and married her??

Catalyst4real:
Personally i think a Guy who Stares at a Lady Before Declaring His Interest in Her, is a Jackass. To toast a Lady you Need to Activate the Element of Surprise in Her. Staring at a Lady Gives her a Hint that you are interested in her, if you show up before her, she already know what you are up to.
But i wanna hear the Ladies Side of it, Some Say its Sexy, Some Say its Romantic and Mind Blowing. Others Find it Discomfiting. So Ladies How do you feel when Guys Stare at you ?

Wait what??

LuveU2:
Its Luveu2 again

Can we please see them without make up to make a more conclusive decision? Thank you.

ItsQuinn:
If your mum says she's not going to fund your school until you marry him and you're in your final year, it's time to change to the "survival to the fittest" mode. In this kind of situation, you need to think logically.

I would say marry him until you graduate and become independent then divorce him

If dem wan show say dem wicked, you go show dem who wicked pass

Wow! omo see reasoning. Na wa o.

AnneMomoh:
“Too many startups begin with an idea for a product that they think people want.”

That no one seems to want the product/solution you are building, surely any other issues can be turned around. But if your potential users don’t want it, what’s the point.

Trying to address a problem that doesn’t exist in the first place might be a sure way to leave the startup scene at an early stage. A good approach to address this is by confirming that your proposed solution is solving a meaningful problem which people would be ready to use or even pay for.
Launching without validation
Another issue startup entrepreneurs cannot escape for new solution is validation, launching without a minimum viable product (MVP).
Some solutions are designed with the entrepreneur having only him/herself in mind, not considering the product’s potential users customers – and in most cases there’s a clear difference between what the company believed to be a ‘must have’ feature and what the customers are willing to use or pay for.
And the Lean Startup Methodologies are just perfect for this.
Revenue Model

Twitter operated for about three years before even looking into monetising the millions of users on the platform, which is running on a series of funding for three years without a revenue model. One question we might want to ask is – how many African startups can run for over 18 months only on funding without losing a larger chunk of its equity to the funders?
It takes real money to keep a business running, hence the need for an early decision on monetization and revenue model is pertinent. Not sure the make it popular and then monetise is still a good approach though, especially in Africa.
Entry Barrier and competition
When the barrier to entry into a sector is relatively low, that translates to a fierce competition and vice versa. A case of the ever growing number of eCommerce players as well as logistics in Nigeria. And playing in a niche market with an entirely different comparative advantage is key.
Yet, some great ideas go quite far only to discover there are barriers that prevent the team from proceeding. So in this case, looking for ways to enhance already existing solutions rather than compete with them could go a long way than trying to build a solution from the scratch. With that, it’s not going to be a competition. What do you think?
Of course, Tunde Kehinde could have taken on Jumia Nigeria and Konga after exiting the former but these giants already have a common enemy which every other eCommerce players in Nigeria can’t shy away from – logistics.
Funding

In Africa, seed funding and grants for early stage startups are mostly between $5,000 and $50,000. And to keep up with the funding challenges, the only available options might just be to keep your current 9-5 job with a decent pay to support your startup, or take up funding for equity. Losing a larger chunk of the company’s equity when you are yet to go public could diminish your interest and passion, and of course we know the end-result of those.
My last attempt at entrepreneurship was a case of two co-founders running out of funds when the business couldn’t generate revenue after 12 months.

Have you read the Lean Start up before?

AreaFada2:
Who knew about Zahra until late in last election campaign? If Buhari had lost, she'd be long off the radar.

And you know this how again?

Blade21:
nice make up fine girl FTC yeaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhh

WRONG!

Now this is what you call excessive make up.

CHEI! This is crazy.

Zetra:
me self wonder, after Edo is drilled of its resources
my own pain is that LGA that needs this funds for grassroots development will not see anything from the various Governors

Reconstruct this Nation, each State should generate, fund, and take care of itself from its IGR.
then pay tax to FG, you will see every State Government will quickly find ways to generate revenues and indirectly more jobs and infrastructure in every State.

Stop giving them fish, teach or force each State to learn hope to fish

Abeg tell them o. Guy the fact that some of this politicians still can't see that allocations is the main reason why this country is still poor is baffling. I guess at times this is why you need an outsider who has been exposed to show you your unclothedness every once in a while.

Development needs to start at the grassroots. Let the local govts be autonomous; raise there own revenue and take care of themselves. This is how things work in most advanced countries. The local govt provides education, water, roads e.t.c and if the local govts can't generate enough revenue to stand on there own then they should merge with neighboring local govts. The baby has to be allowed to walk at times biko.

Local govts should provide there own police force under the oversight of the state govt and they should elect there own police commissioners, judges, local govt chairmen and perm. secretaries.

And they wonder why Naija is still poor and very corrupt?

They need to stop federal allocations.

WOW!!!! Really?? at someone's wedding? Na wa o.

SamuelAnyawu:

Dude, this has been going on for decades.

Also, if GEJ was such a great President, why didn't he make any attempt to stop armed robbery in Naija?

Omolola1:
It's so obvious she has a waist trainer on and she is so uncomfortable in it...chai

Man, it's amazing what some girls do.

Wait! So let me guess this straight, according to this article, this guy's are supporting an administration that was highly corrupt and did little to improve the lives of people in there region and yet they are still standing by him? See reasoning na.

baby124:
She is. Who do you think comes close? Those over bleached yellow paw paw that never even come first 20 in world wide contests? Believe it or not, non Africans don't believe light skin is beauty for Africans. She is dark and very beautiful. She's gorgeous

Bros, you would be amazed at how some oyinbos looooove dark skin. The same dark skin some of us even look down on at times. It's crazy how the world can be.

SailorXY:
One of the best no doubt. But mehn why can't we fancy our complexion down home?

Jochebed7:

It looks like she got a waist trainer on.

eezeribe:
I support the Minister, Nigeria likes copying sheepishly. There are many countries that don't even have plans for the world Cup.

We can as well channel our scarce resources to more productive Ventures. Do you know how many billions of Naira is wasted legally and illegally during such jamboree Tournament?

I DEDICATE MY FTC TO ALL THE LOVERS OF FOOTBALL....SORRY THIS POST WON'T AUGUR WELL

Why would Nigeria win a world cup when you don't have a good league? And how can you have a good league when almost all the clubs are run by the govt?

EgusiSoup:
By 2019 it is either Atiku or my hero Goodluck Ebele Jonathan returning for the Presidency seat. One Atiku or GEJ is far better that a million gworo chewing ajala kunu drinking dullard leading us without an WAEC Certificate

You mean in a country of over 150 million people that this are the only options we have? Na wa o.we truly need to change the primary process and let the people vote for who wins the primaries in each party as opposed to leaving it in the hands of the party insiders.

iamharkinwaley:
Africans won't stop amazing me....
lolz

Hahaha, abi o.

LadyExcellency:
Buy Nigeria, marry Nigeria, the rich no go hear.


Buhari should kukuma impose an unbearable tax burden on imported wives.

After Nigeria don make him mama rich, Na so he come dey pay we country.

And how is this your business again?

baby124:
This groom knows it's not love. She would not have married him without the money. An Iranian Lol.

And you know this how?

MrPresident1:
Provide proof where I implied this Clinton victory, or please get out of my thread. This thread is for the willing and the malleable of heart, not for stone hearted disbelievers!

If you are so weak-minded that at this very point in time you still cannot see that Obama will NOT hand over to Trump, there is no need engaging in any conversation with you or trying to make you see reason.

Obama will not hand over to Trump? You think this is Nigeria or some African country where the President can do whatever he likes?
