My thoughts are that their allowances would've been made top priority considering the fact that most of them are serving away from home and in some cases, hostile environments. With the recent spate of kidnapping of Corp members, they've really become endangered in the service of their fatherland.  |

I feel the submission here by the Op is one sided and almost misogynistic. I'm a man as well, but while there is some truth to his side of the story, the ladies I'm sure will have a reasonable side to the issue as well. Let's put into context that the western culture seems more "gyno-centric" as against what obtains in African cultures, where women are a lot more independent and so, they want to have an equal say on almost every issue. It thus is often a basis for conflict when a couple moves overseas from Africa. In other words, rather than saying that women should marry for love, they should look out more for men who are compatible with their ideals or who's flexible in their thinking. .. my 2 kobo. |

Family › Re: Husband Refused To Pay Money He Borrowed From His Wife by Day169: 10:27am On Feb 10, 2025 |
Telltruth123: Please Nlanders, why some men when they borrow money from their wife and promised to pay back but refuse to pay back when the time is due even when they know that the wife is also struggling. I see it as a wicked behavior,do they feel there is nothing the woman can do to them or they don't want the woman to prosper. These are part of the evidences that the very fabric of society, the family is torn. What better foundation for trust, integrity and harmony is there other than the family but when these virtues are betrayed by the primary actors, there's little left to salvage our moral compass. I'll advise where possible that the wife should forego the said amount but learn a hard lesson for the future. If she's to play a delicate role of holding the family together, she'll require a lot of tact going forward. |

All of these realignments of familiar political foes is like an admixture of oil and water.. Kolewerk! ..do you think that these politicians will place national interest above personal ambition? I doubt it. Once any of them feels he's receiving the short end of the stick from the horse-trading, trust the typical self preserving trait of jumping ship and returning to the ruling party, and betrayal, to kick in. It's just our mentality in politics. Anyway, time will tell. |
Car Talk › Re: Why Does Mercedes Commands Much Respect Than Other Vehicle Products I.e Toyota ? by Day169: 8:56am On Feb 09, 2025 |
Newgoodkk: I don't Understand.. Bro.. 'reliability' is what makes the difference here. With regular use, the Merc would have developed some issues that might require fixing and that's where things could become tricky if not worrisome. As for the Toyota, fixes will be done with relative ease. Let's bear in mind that both cars are probably Toks that may have been bought either as salvaged or auctioned. So, there's a likelihood of further fixes being required within a year of regular use. While the Mercedes is sturdier without a doubt, it's the less reliable and so, the better option for this environment is the Toyota. Hope this explains my claim, Sir. |

And Another Person Bought MERCEDES-BENZ GLK-350 ,With Panaromic Roof ,FULL Option Worth 18 Million .
Can You Imagine, I heard some People Saying Chai ! Merci Oloye , Baba Won ..
Meaning Mercedes Benz is there Father .
Beat all other Car Products,
These Guys are Brothers anyway , It was Fun but the Admirers are the Ones Making the Statements .
One even Mentioned , Mercedes Na Baba Any Day anytime , Toyota Good too but e dey Follow Mecedaez anyday any time..
Is this True ? Why does Mercedes Products Carry so Much Praises even when the Products Compared is More Expensive .
Why is this So... I'll advice you repeat a visit to the brothers after a year to ask the same question again and I assure you that their response will differ from what the 'praise-singers' said earlier. |

Nnamdipapa: So, I was in Walmart to pick up some items. We had already made a list before leaving home of what to buy. As a busy guy, I always like to stick to the list and the budget. After getting everything we came for, she suddenly remembered she had to buy herbal tea and some other items that weren’t on the list.
I stood waiting around while she wandered through the store, looking to add more items to our list. Why is it that women find it hard to stick to a shopping list and budget? This makes me angry, and it’s not the first time. Every time we go shopping, we end up wasting time.
I’ve also heard a couple of friends complain about this same issue. Ladies, women, you need to stop this habit—it drives us men up the wall! Well, it's one of the reasons they say that women may be from Venus and men from Mars.  |
