Story of the day;

Hello Omajuwa. I am an only child who is 42years old. My mother refused to remarry after my father died when I was young. She sacrificed so much for me to be where I am today. I got married about 7years ago. My wife and I have been looking upto God for a child. After pleading with my wife for us to adopt at least a child to no avail, I decided to get my mum who stays with us to help me speak to her woman to woman. But this made them become sworn enemies. My wife since then talks to my mother anyhow and disrespects her every now and then. It has been like that for months.

Few days ago, while returning from work, I heard their loud shouts from outside but I remained outside waiting for the shouts to be over as I didn’t want to be put in the position of choosing a side. But I had to intervene when I heard a loud slap. My wife had slapped my mother. I was enraged but I kept my cool, took my mother from the scene and catered for her. I have since not said a word to my wife.

All I feel when I am at home is sadness and depression. I have no peace in my own home. I have sacrificed a whole lot just to make this marriage work. The woman I married has become someone else. I have defended this same woman from my extended family for years. I have been labeled a ritualist and all sorts of name due to our childlessness but I have never cheated and I have always defended my wife despite knowing that she is the one with fertility issues.

Even though my mother has been trying to put up a strong front since that day, I know that she has been crying herself to sleep. I love my wife so much but I love my mum too. What could my mother have possibly done to warrant her slapping my mother? I think my wife is selfish and is no longer who I married. Why would she rather constantly inflict pain and sadness on her own family? I just want peace of mind and I have made up my mind to divorce my wife. But hope this won’t be a mistake? Is there still a marriage to save here? How do I go about it? What do I do? Please help me.

mediclife1987:

Very foolish talk.

greatiyk4u:

BreconHills:
You talk about a 400% increase as if it will remain at 400% forever. When you free up an industry, competitive pressure forces down prices. The cost of sim cards approaches zero today but they were very expensive in 2000. Furthermore, the Dangote refinery is coming onstream and there will be an availability of supply. The additional taxes on petroleum profits can be easily recycled back into the system and while prices may rise across the board the fact that more players will come out in all industries will ultimately reduce prices.

It is also likely that import duties on solar panels will drop tremendously. We are seeing an upsurge in demand for solar that will; weaken demand for petrol and diesel with an impact on prices. You have to look at the ecosystem effect caused by a range of solutions rather than isolating the 40% increase. If pay rises were 400% what would that do for inflation that is sky-high?

Your point would be better made if you could provide your own alternative plan and not nebulous and fairy-like platitudes. Contrast plan vs plan. Its easy to breakl things down but more mentally challenging to provide workable solutions. This is the bane of Nigerian "intelligence"

Waiting for your plan. When they did conditional cash credits you said it was a fraud, free school meals fraud, trader moni, fraud, graduate employment schemes fraud. Why don't you explain your alternative after all I believe you've thought about the matter beyond the level of mere criticism.

BreconHills:
Are you aware that as a first step civil service salaries have gone up 40% and that the increase is accrued under non taxable benefits? Why don't you exercise patience.

Rokiat:
Just nasty…..they will marry old azzz pale women but would be saying shit about their own Nigerian women if that is not self hate I don’t know what is.

He needs therapy because this ain’t it.

Just ewwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!!!

Where is Dr Umar Johnson when you need him?

bigsmoke2:
My mum cheated on my dad and even had a bastard child for her lover my father was a good man and didn't deserve such. it destroyed our home and made me have an underlying dislike for my mum. Even though we have a relationship things not quite the same. I have never really forgiven her and it has made me develop a very very strong hate for people that cheat on their spouse as I have seen first hand what it can do to families .The thought of becoming what i strongly despise is what keeps me from cheating even though I am not happy in my marriage.

A story of rag-to-riches is believed if told by a person who has "arrived" even if it's untrue and is laden with outlandish claims.

Or it’s the beginning of adultery


Ever since I sealed it with my husband I stopped giving out my numbers to guys, my phone barely rings lol…

Recently I met a man at my university who's elderly and as well married he asked for my number i did give him cause he may be of help cause he works in the federal parastatals… and he is top in his dept….


He said he wants us to be friends and all, he wants us to go out on a date, I actually gisted my husband about him and all but didn’t tell my husband he wants us to go on a harmless date….


I’m just tryna guard my heart, maybe it’s best I don’t go… or maybe there’s something called harmless date or that harmless could be harmful

Advices needed thank you….

LordAdam16:
Yes, and everyone uses gas now because the kerosene subsidy was removed.

If kerosene subsidy had been maintained, the penetration rate for gas will be much lower than it is today. The economic impact from the expansion of gas use will be muted. Look around you and notice how many jobs and the level of economic activity gas infrastructure has generated. Some commercial companies can now move off the national grid because of the buildout.

The erstwhile cabals doing nothing but sending invoices to the FG and smuggling kerosene over the border to get double returns have turned their attention to more productive pursuits. And Nigeria saves at least $1b from not paying that subsidy.

Gasoline will be similar. Transportation prices will surge initially, but that'll level off in time. And if we were a serious country, $5b of the $8b saved should be earmarked to secure a $90b low-cost facility (at an avg. of 2%) from a mix of international development banks to build out our grid on a build for transfer model. Where the government builds with these low interest facilities that only governments can access, then sell them at significant premiums to a mix of international and local investors. Rinse and repeat. The jobs and economic activity from such a scheme should supercharge our anemic GDP growth rate.

Everyone benefits from this. The politicians, civil servants, regulators, banks, investors, operators can skim from the project and there'll still be a visible, impactful build out that changes the economic landscape.

But this is Nigeria. We go out of our way to make things hellish. It's like our favorite national pastime.

tunwumi:
How many Nigerian from the low valued Nigeria education are doing well and even competing with the so called package education


Why am I educating you self? Abeg pack well

fr3do:
The bread and tomatoes you buy is sold by people who use petrol.
Bicycle or not,.e.go reach everybody.

tunwumi:
This comment is very interesting. The main issue is why palliative when it will disappear to ghost. Instead the fund should go to infrastructure like road, bridges, hospital, and industrial infrastructure for development.

tunwumi:
I challenge you to mention anywhere in the world that have cheaper education than Nigeria.

I said it earlier, wisdom come with researching not to just comment on bitterness.

Well it depends on which divide you are, I believe and hope for a better Nigeria.

It is possible

tunwumi:
The currency will be stable as the loophole of subsidy payment will be blocked. But the main issue is the purchasing power within the economy as the price of fuel may be around 450-500.

Most Nigerian are unreasonable in commodity pricing, they are on the exploitation campaign. This is subject to a lot of uncertainty but the removal must be done. The government will have a lot of money at hand to spend with the removal.

We have to close mark the state governors as they will become wasteful due to surplus funds.

It will make a lot of sense if Dangote refinery can also come on stream. It will help to control the prices as transaction will be in niara.

Kobojunkiee:
1. You are not looking at this from the right angle at all.

This isn't a matter of weakness but inner conflict. Are Nigerian men ready to exist as partners in their marriage with their opinions carrying equal weight as that of their spouse? Are Nigerian men ready to also share the responsibility in other aspects of their union? Are they ready to let go of the Head-of-Household status that traditionally goes along with bearing 100% financial responsibility? Many of these men know that the moment they begin to share financial responsibility, they are likely to also share in cooking and other household chores in addition to losing their god-like status in marriage. Are Nigerian men ready for such a change?

If a man is ok with being a partner, all he needs do is make that clear to the woman he marries in his marriage agreement with her, and they both go from there.

SenatePresdo:
What goes around comes around.

The same APC members that were telling obidients and Mikanos to go to court over presidential election.

Why can't they go to that same court now, because shit don hit them, they now want to protest??

Shoot any APC member that protests in that Kogi at sight.

Shoot them dead, they are terrorists that wants to undermine the security of Kogi state

Yeye dey smell.
