Hello nairalanders, please I need help on this situation. So I’m a lady in her mid 20’s. I’m actually very much set for marriage in the eyes of my family, since society deem it fit to place marriage as an achievement for women, and always bring up your age to remind you to. Anyways, it’s not a priority for me to get married now, as I feel like I’m not ready mentally,and I have a lot of trauma to work on, but I’m also open to it, if it’s in my face and ready. I don’t stay in Nigeria, so my family don’t know if I have a man in my life, so they decided upon themselves to introduce me to a man who is my uncle’s friend that stays in the same country as me. They were more focus on the fact that he comes from a neighboring village from us and that he was a doctor. (Meanwhile he’s actually a nurse, but he told them, that he was a doctor, he also never mentioned to them that he was married and had a child, before they decided to introduce him to me)

So we eventually started talking on WhatsApp, he saw some of my pictures already and he was mesmerized. In fact he was already kind of making me his wife in that moment. So one day he called me and we were just talking,and I heard like a toddler crying so bad and needed his attention, I asked him who was that , he told me it was his daughter, there was this awkward silence for almost five minutes of us not saying anything, so I told him I’ll call him back. I called my mother that day and was mad as hell, that they didn’t disclose such information to me, but from my mother’s reaction she had no idea, and she was also mad and she told me, she will call me back, so she could verify from my uncle, since that’s his friend. Even my uncle too had no idea. To cut the whole story short, he later called me the next day on a video call, and he started telling me about his wife( Yes! She’s still his wife, because I don’t think he has divorced her yet)and how abusive she was, and how he tried to make it work, but she was so crazy and stuff like that. That he’s actually trying to get shared custody of the child. That he’s no longer married to her. I was not really having it, because I just felt like he wasn’t being honest with certain things and on top of that his wife is still in the picture, and I don’t know if I want to settle for that. Also he just turned 40, and I’m 25. So the age gap is too much for me. Also I have not met him in real life, cause he stays in a different state from me, my family still wanted me to be open minded until I see him in person, then I could make a decision if I want him or not. He always sends me pictures of his daughter, and he recently sent me one with his first wife and daughter, I was surprised that he did, and he said he wanted to show me the daughter instead. I still felt like I didn’t need to see a picture of her. I started seeing the red flags of him that I couldn’t settle with. Also the way he talked about the wife was vulgar, and I felt like he didn’t need to tell me about her in that manner.

Now the most recent thing he started doing was sending me random stuff about marriage to my WhatsApp. I usually glance at it,and don’t reply, cause I don’t know why he’s sending me that. The one that gave me a major big red flag from him, is when he sent where Regina daniels( the actress who married Ned nwoko) was talking about marrying her husband a virgin and how it’s important to be a virgin. He then asked me if I was one. Honestly I felt really numb, because I don’t know why he will be asking me stuff like that, when he didn’t really get a respond back from me, he proceeded to send another message telling me, “No mind them sha, virgin no sabi. With a heart eye emoji. I was dumbfounded, I didn’t know how to reply to him anymore. I stopped picking up his calls and I have no intention to meet up with him anymore. Now my family is mad at me, saying that at least I should see him in person, but I don’t want to. In fact I’m no longer interested in him. Please am I wrong for feeling the way I feel? Thanks.

My sister, please flee now that you can in peace

Well, he should just put a phone pouch then go ahead to live the fake life.

So many stupid comments up there! A lady was trapped at 14 and got traumatized and all some could talk about is how she's dressed in the picture.

My brother, your reasons for wanting to get married is wrong. Stop been in a haste and stop been selective. There are still many good girls out there!!!

USA Judiciary system is not like that of Nigeria... There is something Atiku knows and we are waiting to see the outcome.

Portable on da beat... I am nt his fan but I like his boldness

Jewessgratitud3:
Right now she needs advice on what to do and I'm also going to be sharing what I have advised her so far.

This man has used his foolishness to implicate my sister and their lovely kids. Before I go into details of what happened recently, I'll like to give a quick backstory of how all these came to be and how she even got herself into this mess

Backtracked to 2014 when she broke the news that someone was coming to see the family for her hand, I asked her who the person was but she refused to tell me saying I'll meet him when he comes. I was now like ha... This one you're hiding it. I never knew it was one useless guy that was living in our former area in the early 2000s that all he does then was stand at junctions disturbing girls. He also disturbed me one period like that and I so much dislike him because of his behavior plus he's fair and I can't stand fair guys.

The day came and we started cooking. Already I had gotten a hint from my eldest sister that it's the guy and I said was that why she was hiding it? What's my own there. We move. As the day was approaching, my idowus husband called and told me to warn my sister that that guy she's pulling with is not it. That if she's trying to have something serious with him she'll be making a big mistake. I said, she's an adult and can make choices for herself.


He came with his people and we did everything and she moved in with him. Now, this guy doesn't do anything. He claims he's a lawyer but never goes to work. Most times he'll go for early morning training by 6am and after everyone has gone to work, he'll come home and be sleeping. initially my sister was covering him up that he's doing something but anytime I visit after school, I'll always meet him at home sleeping. I knew my sis was just covering him.

Before they married my sister owned a school that was doing well. After her first child the school was still doing well but they started having issues because she was the one bearing most of the financial burden in the house. Sometimes she would come to school with bruises on her face. Since she refused to talk, me I didn't bother asking because if I do she'll bark at me.it continue like that until she could no longer bear it and started opening up to me that the guy doesn't do anything. Just goes about from one junction to the other.

She took in for her second child and fell sick. The school suffered management and folded up. That was when the guy showed her his true color. They fought to the extent she left her kids and went to my sister's house. My elder sisters husband settled them and she went back.

She had her third child and the guy started his madness again. This time he would leave them and go for hours without food. When he's coming at night he'll buy food and call his children to come eat and leave my sister hungry. So anytime I go there I'll just find her something to eat. Sometimes not always.
The day I said enough is enough and decided pull her out of that nonsense was the day she called me, I was in bus and she said for two days now she has not eaten anything and she's having headache. That the guy said he'll deal with her. I told her to hold on and sent her the little I could that I'll come and see her.

I got there and told her she can't continue like this . I told her to start following me to school to learn how to do what I'm doing and I'll be giving her small small daily pay any day she goes with me and later she can start sourcing for her own schools and be making her own money. I put her through and took her to a school immediately and assigned her to some classes after watching me for a few mins.

We did that for a few weeks and I was giving her the small thing I could after each day. She started going out to look for schools and two schools called her. She now said she can't be following me again , I said no problem. God helped her, She now got more schools and started selling books too and making money.
When this guy saw it, he left feeding and only buys food for the children once in a while. Meanwhile their fighting continued.

Fast-forward to last year, the landlord called my sister that he has given the husband quit notice not because he was owing but he was owing but he was always disrespecting the landlord. My sister tried to plead but he said it's not because of my sister but the husband. Now this guy's is so troublesome and brags a lot. He quarrels with the landlord a lot and always goes against the rules of the compound. I on the other hand have been telling my twin now that she has the money to get her own apartment and leave the lazy thing but she's there.


Last two weeks Tuesday. during that heavy downpour, the landlord came with some police men and threw their things out in the rain as was preparing her children for school. It was one of the police men that now said they should leave the things in the compound and helped my sister to bring then inside the gate. The husband ran away. After everything he called my sister to bring the children somewhere. When she got there it was a friend's house. He begged them to let his family stay the night and till now he's still there. I told my sister, shey I've been warning you about this guy. Bett look for a place and move in before this one's change their mind. Could you believe this man continued his laziness there? When everyone has gone out he'll go there and start sleeping till they come back from work and meet him. My sister said he has started quarrelling the man's wife . Someone who's squatting you you're challenging them.

he's talking about moving them to Mower but sister is not buying the idea and says she wants to get an apartment here on the mainland and move with only her children but I'm of the opinion that she should Leave the children with him because if she goes with the children he'll run from his responsibility and never pay their school fees again.

What should she do because the guy travelled for his brothers burial now and the owner of the house was heard asking the wife why the guy and my sister are still in their house and said let him come back first . Meaning they are tired.

I've told her to get an apartment now o.

You can force a horse to the stream but you can not force it to take a drink of it. You have done and said your best as a good sister. Let her do her wish!

Like seriously? Without any hint about the business.

Wahala never left the Mandela's family and I wonder why!

Such a prestigious family with so many unfortunate incidents.

In another news, I love her handwriting.

That's so unwise! He should just have changed school

You have time to have been replying to his nonsense... You had better block the mad man!

I always love helping people and felt it will be better I empower individuals instead of doing giveaways which will not yield any meaningful impact at the end of the day.
I came up with an empowerment of 100,000 naira and expected the money to move from one individual to the other.
The first person to benefit was Mr Dexcelin and he said he was good at garri processing.He was initially given the sum of 100,000 naira transfer I did but some couple of days later he said he was stalk and would need 10,000 naira for transportation which I first sent 10,000 naira to him but network bank issues occurred and I sent another 10,000 naira to him again which he received and claimed he didn't receive the first 10,000 naira.
To cut the story short this Dexcelin stopped communicating with me and his phone went unreachable.
A couple of weeks later he claimed he received that 10,000 naira and he has used the money to buy a phone.
Couple of days later Mr Dexcelin blocked me on whatsapp and through phone.
I had to tell a police inspector to call him and when the police inspector called him and told him to pay me back my money.
Mr Dexcelin called me and promised to pay me in 2 days time and in 2 days time Mr Dexcelin did not pay me and blocked me and blocked the police inspector also.
This necessitated me using my connect to track him down as he was tracked and arrested at Portharcourt yesterday.
You can now see the way people use in blocking the way of other people. It is well.

Some people are ingrates and foolish. But, don't stop helping others all the same.

So he could succumb

I have received the same message from 3 different numbers not in my contacts. They all claim they want to introduce online business that I will cash out at every month end. They will then collect 30% out of it. I blasted the first 2 and blocked them. Then another one came in this morning. I decided to play along to know what is it about.
See below the screen short of our chats.

I have received a whole lot of it... They are mostly people from a whatsapp group or the other.
I block such pple rightaway

My daughter was asked to go for scan today but when the doctor was not available, the Matron attended to her and I was not too sure of what was written there.

Instead of her to ask my daughter to see the doctor tomorrow, she went ahead to recommend drugs for her:
Promolut

Please can a Medical doctor help to interpret this?
See the result below...

Which drugs did she prescribed?

Hi Nairalanders, I have some money (naira) in savings.
Considering how naira keeps depreciating against the dollar, I am hoping to convert it to dollars and save(not trade).
I want to know if buying USDT on Binance (at least it's trust worthy) translates to saving in dollars, because I learnt it has same value as the US dollars.
And I don't want to use any of this Nigerian fintech app, to avoid stories tomorrow.
I am not used to crypto trading and don't want to get involved in it.

Buying USDT is equivalent to buying Fiat dollars as they are like the same rates. Although, Usdt is mostly higher in value sometimes

Interesting piece... Heard this for the first time

Am I the only one that have not seen an hausa person listening to the general pop or afro music? Not to talk of other genres like jazz or Rock. They seem to prefer songs in their language that make use of their traditional instruments. I don't even know whether there is a recognised name for that music genre.

Both the formally educated and informally educated have a patriotic love for their traditional songs.

Is it just me that havent seen one or are there actual hausa people who vibe to the likes of wizkid and the likes?


PS: This is not a shade on hausa people. It's just an honest observation.

They do listen to it but sometimes, you just wonder if they are listen to it the other way round.

Why is that when I give my parents money like 50 to 80k for upkeep within a month it's finished and I start getting calls and so forth which is quite okay. But when I am broke as in really broke that I could even carter for something's myself my sisters comes in and for her low paying job she drops like 10k or thereabout that can take them for sometime with enough of gratitude from them and they spend it quite well . But mine is just like seen normal and it's almost likes it's lessed valued I mean that's how I feel.

Nlfpmod

I understand how you feel... I believe they just expect more from you because they value you more in terms of worth.

The why some men would rather get married to ladies from their hometown... Biased tradition
