ladygogo: lol @dbard. 400 guests isnt low key again o! Tips? Start by cutting down on the no of guests, then you will save more on food,drinks and decor.

You dont have to spend a lot on your dress too.

At the end of the day, it all boils down to individual taste. I know i will have spent more if i had had the wedding in Naija, despite the fact that it was small.

thank you.

Lol.. u can say that again
Not wat I had in mind , but a really fair estimate based on d no of 'well wishers', that'll pop in albeit uninvited.
Trying t cut costs as much as possible but....


It is well

Nice..
but really not practical in d typical Naija setting.
For e.g, am planning my wedding n keeping it low keyed, but still expecting approx 400+guests f white n 200+ f trad.
Somethings can't b helped.

Was really hoping f tips I could use.

Doing d S.A.P but d waistlines not bin cooperative

How do u justify d killing of innocents ? How do u justify d deaths of thousands, attimes in dier bedrooms?? Is dre any justification t labelling sons, daughters, fathers n mothers as Collateral Damage
......n yet d world is watching, silently, making excuses behind faceless forums.


For those that are trying t take sides , remember, just a few days ago, scores died when several rockets hit a temp refugee school house shelter..mostly children.

The hostilities Should End..or @least , Israel Stops d bombardment n go it 'old school'.

My biggest issue with that statement has always been; If u expect someone to love u as u are, then try t make d person u are one someone can easily n comfortably love.
Anything outside that is just selfish n wicked.

lakpalakpa: The OP is a foolish lying deeper-life member. I'm sure Kumiyi will be ashamed that a liar like you is his member.

Well God loves sinners so repent before it is too late.

niceeric: [b]

Do u know I found out your post has no meaning?......atleast not d meaning I thought u were trying to pass....u described rebels in your silly way and ended d description with 'such as' Boko Haram lol....ure confused nigga...

Again I never said terrorists are same as rebels.....u should try to read and answer comprehension passages.....try New Practical English book 1(yes,d one meant for jss1).....u need to redo d foundation.....well,all I said is the mode of operation of BH is similar to those exhibited by d rebels in Sierra leone and if you actually look closely(dats if u can see anyway) you'll see that BH don't act in full capacity of terrorists,ive never heard of al qaeda kidnapping school girls,never have I heard of them going to villages to steal food,i avnt heard also of them not knowing Governors of States by names......calling lagos state Governor Oshiomole is wat i'm talking about.....so use ur brain man.

Lastly,seems u dont know wat a documentary means?check ur dictionary.....but heck??.....Don't u watch NatGoeWild??......how old are you? what's your educational standing?did u even go past secondary school?.......damn!
Anyways, 'cry freetown' is a documentary by a reporter who was with the soldiers ryt there in Sierra leone...all shootings. and activities on d tape were all live......I rest my case with u indefinitely......u no reach to dey follow talk [/b]

It's fairly obvious who amongst us is d kid here. Lemme give u some assignments;
*Google, al qaeda kidnappings in Afghanistan, as well as sources of fundings f al qaeda.
*open /Google d dictionary meaning of a movie..you'll b surprised t find out a documentary is actually a movie, but well, u r probably one of those that still thinks 'actor'refers t d main character in a movie..
Finally, dat 2 entities are distinct does not mean they don't 've similarities..any ' organization', that does not 've legal recognition usually 've t source dier funds illegally. ..including Certain rebel groups..
..n f someone screaming comprehension, read d post again, am quite sure B.H was Not an e.g of a rebel group.
Someone more intelligent, I would 've continued dis discussion hoping f a stimulating exchange of ideas, but u sir are Seriously Deficient.
I would rather spend d time watching my fan blades revolve.
Have got work t do...
Glad t 've bin of help.

niceeric: Mr man,you are either a liar or just a stark illiterate when it comes to worst that have to do with d military.....rebels are anti government militias who wreck havoc and go into hiding when external help comes to aid the government they have made powerless....kindly watch 'cry freetown' or any other live reporter's documentary on ECOMOG activities and educate yourself.......rebels in Sierra leone actually had snipers(hope u know wat dat means),they had their bases in different cities in Sierra leone and they raped and kidnapped women and children,they infiltrated villages in search of food too and went back into hiding after having their fill.....Tell me now how they are different from Boko Haram insurgents......

If I were u anyway, i'll start seeking for knowledge about ECOMOG ryt now.....education helps

U seem t b d ignorant one here.
there's a world of difference between 'rebels', which are basically an informal, irregular STANDING army , sort of like militias and Guerrilla organizations such as Boko Haram which are basically armed bands, mobile, with a very loose command structure.
The former engages in battles..d latter , mostly skirmishes. One has a face , d oda is faceless.
Quoting movie sources as d basis of ur position is laughable.
Its called 'Intelligent Discourse ' f a reason.

Educative thead...
Nice one

It's fairly obvious wat d problem is and wat d solution shld be........
Ur Husband DOES NOT Respect u and u 've got to go earn his respect.
No matter wat he says , most men do not appreciate a stay @home , not doing anything, waiting f handout wife.
U should be seen to b Doing/contributing something.The presence of d housegirl must v've brought out ur faults esp if he didn't c d need f one from onset.
A man that has t 'hustle' from state t state while his wife sits @home not doing her own part, is bound t build up resentment..n obviously, he as well isn't handling it well cos, as peeps 've stated earlier, u both lack good Communication.

my advice; Earn his respect, start bin a bit more hardworking n industrious , and build a stronger communication wit him...that way he can understand n unlearn dse bad relationship habits u complaining about.
All d best

jpphilips: There is no doubt you may be a guru in Biochemistry or physio, but Imagine where the doctor has to be a guru in your field and other fields you may not have heard of?
so tell me honestly, who deserves to own the patient on merit? you "one way guru" or the doctor who happens to be an "all round guru", answer honestly.

The day a physiotherapist heads a hospital and a Biochemist owns a patient that day will be my last in any Nigerian hospital running such insane structure.

the problem with Nigerians is that they don't have a fore sight, they don't know how to analyze scenarios and fix culpability where it belongs, It begs whether the average Nigerian is even educated.
JOHESU's demand will kill more patients than this strike, but you guys refuse to see, when it manifests you run to courts and ojota in protest, or perhaps, run to the church as usual.

The subsidy removal was announced April 2011, Nigerians being dumb people did not protest, why? because they were not able to string the relationship between subsidy and increased cost of living.

January 2012, they went to the gas station and met triple the price of gas, they went to transport companies and saw triple the fare, they took to the street and started disturbing Ojota, meanwhile the 2012 budget did not even carry the so called subsidy because the Govt thought the people were Ok! with it.

the demonstrations even came to the politicians as a surprise which begs the question? why was there no protest before January?
Ans: the average Nigerian is a m0r0n who doesn't know, foresee or understand how govt policies affect him, fortunately, Our doctors have proved they are no ordinary Nigerians, they have shown they have the academic will to look into the future to analyze the demerits of this Govt senseless policy and have the strength to stand up to it.

Liken this present scenario with President Sarkorzy's Labor law, in less than 24hrs, Paris was shut down in protest, people were able to analyze critically the demerits of the law because they have functional brains, what do we get in Nigeria, people who cannot think beyond their lips insulting and crucifying doctors, for fighting for their own future.

If Nigerians have sense, they should be on the street with placards protesting for the law to be reversed, the TUC and NLC should be on solidarity strike, that will spare the doctors the stress of going on strike and concentrate on their jobs, but hey! we are Nigerians whose IQ rival that of a Nematode for us to have the temerity to insult doctors for saving our future.

Has any of you including the Sun news writer taken time to juxtapose the curriculum of the Doctor with that of JOHESU members? none of them came close at consultancy level, and I will challenge any of you to prove me wrong. with such ridiculous curriculum you want to head the hospital and own the patient? kai, Nigeria is a disgrace as a country. As a matter of fact, the Health minister or whoever proposed that nonsense should be jailed without trial.

A consultant lab scientist can never own a patient, not any member of my family, God forbid! and forbid again. The NMA MUST not allow this sacrilege to happen, unless they expand their curriculum to be a par with doctors, anything short is not acceptable!!

but then, what do I know, JOHESU is interested in only the benefits, that is why they say the doctors are stopping them from getting a higher pay, when will JOHESU strike for their curriculum to be broadened so they will be a par with the doctors in academia? I am still waiting for that day!!

To JOHESU, it is about the benefits and money, to Doctors, it is about a senseless govt who wants to torpedo academic superiority and enthrone mediocrity in our health care delivery.

God forbid!!

U sir are one of d few with understanding..not necessarily cos of d support but because ur views are borne out of a critical understanding of d issues @hand.
Thank you.

warrior01: Hate doctors? The fact is those people in Nigeria that parade themselves as Doctors, don't know what it really means to be a mreal doctor. No ethics, no compassion and no proffessionalism. All we have is a bunch of greedy people that is full of unnecessary pride. If you doubt me, why do our people rush to India for proper treatment?

May Heaven judge u the next time u step into a hospital or call a Dr f medical advice.. U hypocritical elements have no shame.
U vomit n yet u run t eat up that vomit with spice d first chance u get.
Fly all ur relatives t India next time y'all ill.
Rubbish..

allycat: The general consensus I get from these threads is that the Nigerian public does not require the services of these idiots called Doctors. So why all the noise, take your sick to the pharmacist, physiotherapist , MLS and nurses, no one is stopping you. After all some years ago Borno state brought in Egyptian technologist who were acting as doctors. Yes people died but it's better than being treated by a lousy Nigerian doctor.In everything in life there is the law of demand and supply if people stop looking for doctors then we(cos I am one) will find our level. Shikena!

THANK YOU !!!

This is d kind of thread that makes u wish there was a 'middle finger' icon.
Don't know y'all are bothering yourselves...phantom, drgeorge etc
Let them rant I say, n let out dier frustrations.

Eventually , even d most ardent of atheist pray t a god/God.


**still basking in my demigod status**

Djtm: Exactly my point. I said doctors are overhyped in Nigeria, I didn't say doctors are overhyped. Any sick person needs a doctor not just in Nigeria but all over the world. So your "dont visit a doctor" point doesn't count.

Loool.. Nice try

Smh@ how ppl r quick t run down Drs but oh so ready t run t them wen tins go awry.

Overhyped yet important... o.k.o

**still basking in my demigod status**

Djtm: that is if you're me. Overhyped doesn't mean unimportant or irrelevant. You probably don't know the meaning of overhyped. Nonsense!!!

To overhype..is to Grossly Exaggerate/promote beyond wat it is. Do check ur dictionary.
In d context u used it, it is degrading t Drs..tho t u it still doesnt render them less important.. how convenient.
..but wat do u expect frm mere mortals

**goes back t take his seat amongst d oda demigods**

I usually don't bother reading threads like this , so don't know y I did this...
The level of ignorant prejudice here is simply appalling.
O.k.. ... Drs are useless. .is everyone happy now

**goes back t flexing d strike**

Djtm: They are just pissing me off!!! Wtf? Our government is a very useless one for this sort of crap to be going on! What's their own concern about how much other specialists are paid? As long as you're paid what you're worth, you shouldn't care about what others earn. If a programmer has worked for a certain number of years, has so much experience under his belt, he has the right to become a consultant programmer. IMO, doctors are overhyped in Nigeria. Well, our leaders do not give a sh1t, so people can continue to die as long as they can afford to go abroad once they have a slight headache.

If I were u , I would never step foot in a hospital t c dse overhyped Drs again. .
SHAME on u if u ever do.
Rubbish!!!

nairalife2013: u are wrong Agrika dear. Very wrong. I have seen women who still stay with thier cheating husbands who also batter them untop! Don't go there! Wen we sit demdem(just men), we talk a lot about women. I hear a lot! I am a counsellor now, on "How to marry a goodwoman" I dated my wife for four years befor I concluded she is a material. I pushed her to d most rough of walls! U can't fake goodness wid David! I hid all my money thro d four years of our courtship and drilled her in d crude sense of a man wellversed in d game. I had myriad of other ladies in my life; I battered her and still go back to beg. I feigned penury and sat eating her sch fees in d early stage. I faked serious anger sent her away from my house when all she did was make a kitchen mistake a third time; I zeroed my mind and flung her things outside but she hung to me and cried and bugged! I went further and pushed her to d door step and she hit her head and had a cut! Yet she was still weeping and telling me she loved me so much and dat living widout me will literally kill her slowly. Pls I don't want to remember all these. I needed a woman I can entrust my life with and go to sleep. A woman I can love and die for- a woman whose children she bore for me I can love as much cos I love thier mom. Only a very few beautiful women can be dat good. I wanted a woman whose excessive love for me will be my inspiration to work hard and be d man. I could have still married someone else who had a lesser love for me but I would have been more reserved in dealing wid her interms of welfare and care. She wouldn't control my finances nor know I hav a vault somewhere- this would have affected my kids and I wouldnt mind. But I didn't want dat. Many of my sisters are married to even richer men, but none of them equates with my wife's societal status even as she is cool and very humble. AtLeast not at that age when she was just 22 or3. Non of them controls what my wife control, Nor even thier friends upon thier wealth and age. Everyone knows who she is and how much she loves me. When I was satisfied wid her uncommon lifestyle of respect and patience, midway in sch, I had to change the game...I started by paying her sch fees, then went straight and bought her first car for her. Between then and now, she has had a saloon and two suvs. I recently sold one of d suvs cos of infrequent use. upon all I did to her, she has never spoken to me with contempt in his eyes or face. D highest she did was to complain- pls listen to me dear, pls pls. And if I refuse she will quietly walk away and come bak to solicit for my audience. A woman dat once told me "all men are like little boys and will never grow up, u must treat them like u would your own son, no matter how stupid they behave, except u dint love him-itz only d woman's unconditional love and obedience and God dat brings dem bak to thier senses" she admits d difrens btw male and female emotions and has limits to complaints in this regard. Those wheels don't move her even tho we hav passed d time where we can be so broke as to not be able to hav at least one car in the house and still eat and take care of other important needs. Don't go there... U don't know what u don't know. Even my wife schools my mum and many other older women in ways of tolerance and antics of man. Datz how good she is. U won't know pls. Just leave it there. Just live yur life. Thanks

Reading dis , even as a guy, was just painful.
Women dey try sha...selling ur pride n dignity as a woman cos of wat she mistakes as love...refer t d Bible f d def of love at dis point.
Was jst telling someone tday dat cos of dier inability/unwillingness t stand on their own 2 feet or take responsibility f dier actions , women r more prone t tolerate abuse now.
I feel sorry f ur wife..n want t make it clear t u ,U DoNot love her. She's more like a pet , trained t accomodate d whims of d owner n appreciated f dat reason. She has been specially groomed by u , like a bad habit, like an addict, she's bin made a slave t ur attentions...
That Is Not love.

Btw , u do not Try t stop cheating, u just do.

If u Truly love ur wife, make her happy
