MASSOB is a disgrace. This goes to show that the movement was only a political one run by very selfish people. I wouldn’t have believed something like this would happen in a million. Shame and disgrace is what I feel on behalf of MASSOB and its supporters. SMH
StilmaVsBorn2w: Back then when my mom was warning me not to go that far when our relationship started She kept on insisting I should go for the girls in my tribe, I thought she was just been a tribalist bigot. If only I had listened
She bore me a son, he's 3years now... though her people knows me well from normal visitation..but I haven't been able to pay her bride price yet due to the hardship this regime has on us. life happened, unfortunately she got sick since February, ever since then from one hospital to another..I took several loans from people for hospital bills to the point of me looking sick myself.so sad for us we lost her last night.
I informed her elder brother who knows about all thats happening, he called me back this morning to tell me that his people told me to be prepared to marry her corpse. He went further and said if I don't pay her bride price, my boy will be taken from me and I should be ready to withstand the consequences. I was surprised, I called for the burial arrangements not for a marriage ceremony
I blantly told him, I won't, why would I get married to her corpse. He was angry and cut the call on me.
Am more concerned about my son, please lawyer's in the house do they have any right to take my son away from me? Even if they do am ready to give it to them, but spending money to Marry her corpse I will not.
I only brought this here, if had chance for my son whose still in my custody.
My deepest condolences bro. It’s really sad to hear what you’re going through. You need to fight to keep your son. I hope you can take good care of him though. You should persist on not marrying her corpse and propose some other acceptable rights be performed. My 2 cents!
Solofresh2: There is course mate of mine. We were close friends in school. So there is this day she followed me to my home (because I don't live in the hostel, I rented an apartment outside), I was so hungry so she decided to cook for me. After we finished eating, one thing led to the other and we had sex. This girl is in her early twenties just like me.
Since that day, she never lets me rest. We have been having sex and she told me she has a boyfriend. She comes to my house and we always end up having sex all the time. I have told her enough is enough but she keeps coming. I use protection though.
I blamed myself for letting her know my place How can I discard this girl totally because as long as she comes, I will keep sleeping with her.
I’ve worked at 4 different firms but my current supervisor is the only dumb one I’ve ever worked with. I’m not proud to call him my supervisor. People even say I’m better than him but what hurts me the most is that doesn’t help me grow
Kelechi20007: I recently got admission in a university in uk for my Masters. The challenge I have is that I can't fund it. The only way to to do so is by selling my mom house.
I'm her only child and another difficult challenge is that she was buried in the yard of the house 5 years ago.
I don't have a good job, I have been teaching in a private for a long time, I need a better future for myself, I'm seeing a chance here for a better life by furthering my education in uk.
It's a difficult decision for me selling the house with her grave in it. Please guys put yourself in my shoes, what will you do in this kind of situation?
Go and sell the property own for the Master’s. Lazy person.
Extrastiv01: Hello everyone, my name is not necessary, I am 28 years old and I am on the verge of losing my job but the important thing here is that sport betting is about to ruin my life and career and I need help and advise from you all. It all started when my friend Bolaji(not real name) introduced me to this popular sport betting platform last year which I strongly believe that 80% of Nigerian youths would know or even use on a regular basis.
I started playing games on this platforms with the little money I made from side hustles,it was cool because I could still remember my first game; I staked #2000 on a match between Liverpool and a smaller club and I cashed out massively that weekend. I was so happy and all of a sudden I became greedy. I began to stake higher and started looking for higher and better odds to boost my winnings, I started staking with my salary and then it got worse that I started using my life savings to play games in which most time I don't win but still I won't back out hoping I would win back all my lost money in the next game ,I would even borrow money from my neighbors and friends as a matter of fact, I got a new name on the street: (BABA 2 ODDS)
Last week, my boss gave me #150,000 to go and deposit at the bank but instead I transferred the money into my betting account wallet hoping I could double the money. I predicted realmadrid to win on last week champions league match against Chelsea,though they qualified for the next round but they still lost to Chelsea. I almost ran mad at the viewing centre. Anyways my boss has been calling me since and I couldn't pick because I don't know what to tell him..... Nairalanders I need your advise and help!!!
Oghene1st: Ukodo is a yam and unripe plantain dish of the Urhobo people of Nigeria. The Itsekiri people of the Niger Delta also make a similar dish called Epuru. It is essentially a pottage, a stew of meat and vegetable with its base as the Nigerian pepper soup. It is usually used for marriage and burial ceremonies or as breakfast, particularly during the cold season.
It is sometimes cooked with lemon grass and potash. A poem by the Nigerian Chovwe Inisiagho-Ogbe describes both the ingredients and the process of cooking Ukodo in a light-hearted way.
Wadoo!!!! Is it just me or did the weather get chilly all of a sudden. This is the best type of weather for one of my favorite south-south recipes….Ukodo. Usually, this is the type of meal i take and sleep off afterwards under my thick duvet cover while the cold air mixed with the irresistible aroma ukodo leaves the house with brushes through my face and nostrils while i sleep…sweet lazy morning all the way.
Ukodo is typical spicy traditional breakfast native to the Urhobo tribe of delta state in the southern part of Nigeria. It is simply a pepper soup dish which consists of unripe plantain and yam (sometimes cooked with lemon grass and potash), and is believed to be the perfect companion on a wet cold day. The Itsekiris, also of the Niger Delta call their version Epuru while the igbo version is known as Ji mmiri Oku. When preparing ukodo, i usually prefer the use of goat Goat meat or dried fish because it gives it a nice native taste and smell unlike chicken and cow meat. It’s really simple to make as i’m about to show you below. How to make Ukodo (Urhobo yam & plantain pepper soup pottage)
Prep Time: 15 minutes Cook Time: About an hour Category: Nigerian soups Region: Niger-Delta, Nigeria
Ingredients:
•3 medium sized plantain “Unripe”
•4 Large Slices yam
•1 kg Goat meat (with intestine & liver) •2 cooking spoons Palm oil •1 small bunch lemon grass/ scent leaves •2 tbsp. crayfish/ dry prawns •1 teaspoon dried pepper •2 seeds “Iwo/Erhe (itshekiri) – Dry roast and set aside •1 seed Gbafilo •2 Uda Uwentia “Negro pepper” (Simply Uda or Enge) – Remove the seeds & discard •1 tsp. Ataiko •1 tbsp Irugege •2 Seasoning cubes •1/2 teaspoon Native salt
Directions:
Step 1: Wash the goat meat thoroughly, place in a pot and sprinkle a tsp. of salt and cook for about 15 minutes on low heat. Set aside to later use.
Step 2: Peel the yam and cut into two halves then immerse in a bowl of water and rinse. Peel and cut the plantain into three pieces then – set aside.
Step 3: Place all the local spices (Iwo/Erhe (itshekiri), Gbafilo, Ataiko, Irugege) in the dry part of the blender and grind for a few minutes.
Step 4: Add some water to the pot containing goat meat. Place on the burner and allow to boil for about 5 minutes. Add 1-2 tbsp. of the ground spices, uda, crayfish, pepper and crushed seasoning. Stir and taste the soup. Leave to cook further till you start to perceive the aroma.
Step 5: Add plantain and yam. Add the lemon grass bunch then reduce the heat and allow the ukodo to cook for about 15 minutes. Discard the lemon grass bunch after this.
Step 6: Transfer the Yam and plantain into a dish, then pour the liquid into another plate. Pour red palm oil into a small clay bowl and serve. The palm oil can also be mixed with the ukodo liquid and used to eat the yam and plantain or the yam/plantain could be dipped in the oil and eaten while the ukodo liquid is sipped like pepper soup.

We didn’t break up but she avoided me and refused to responds to my calls and texts for over a year only for her to resurface and spent the night with me. She wanted sex but I wasn’t just comfortable with it. She got really upset and left first thing in the morning. Next thing I saw were wedding photos not long after. I didn’t even know she was engaged.
Stay safe bro. Be very security conscious. Congrats!
fmcjunior: I sought for people's opinions about staying back to work in the southwest with an average pay or work in Gombe that pays up to twice than the southwest. This is the link of the thread. And I'm grateful it was on the front page for some days.
I'm currently working in Gombe and the place is kinda dope for the Northeast setting. Transportation and food prices is cheap. I was even surprised to see the state has a good road network.
Lanrelagboi: Days back, the media was a washed with reports that the respected Olu of Warri, His Royal Majesty, Ogiame Atuwatse III "endorsed" an APC presidential aspirant Bola Ahmed Tinubu
Then some other reports came denying such endorsement. But what exactly did the Honorable Monach say?
If this is not an endorsement, I wonder what else is but lets say it isn't an endorsement. But this is what the monarch has said and let no one misreport it
You’re funny ooo. Many ritualists are church workers sef. Our politicians who are church regulars and big donors nko that are occultists. The more you look the less you see
God1000: For those of you that think Barack Obama is evil because of his policies and stance on homosexuality, he's a surefooted Christian, a true believer in Christ, he goes to church regularly.
You can see him reading the holy bible
He's a proud Blackman as well, I remember him going to his ancestral homeland keyna as senator and president.
Your position here only gives reasons why Osinbajo is better but not enough reason for Tinubu to lose. Don’t forget it was money Atiku used to win the last PDP presidential primaries
NaijaCowFarm: Leadership is not a popularity contest - Adams Oshomole
It is not arguable that Tinubu has a very large political structure. It is also not arguable that Tinubu can defeat Osinbajo in an Open Ballot system, but APC primaries are not going to be an open ballot system where people queue behind their candidates, rather it is going to be an Open-Secret Ballot system. In an open-ballot system, once I vote against you, you know, so I will be reluctant to vote another after assuring you or collecting your money. However, in an Open-Secret ballot, I can assure you that I will vote for you, collect your money yet vote my "heart".
Now on the day of the APC primaries, these are the facts that would be very clear:
Tinubu is too old to govern effectively: With the hindsight of Buhari's challenges, APC would rather go for a younger and much healthier candidate than an old and sick Tinubu. This is a clear advantage that Osinbajo would have. Most of the delegates would be easily swayed towards Osinbajo right inside the ballot cage, where they would thumb-print their ballot, fold it and come out openly to cast it in the ballot box. Mark you, it is going to be the same ballot box for all candidates, so you cannot know who was voted until the ballots are sorted and counted.
Tinubu's bad faith towards Ambode: The bad deed that Tinubu did to Ambode is still fresh in the minds of the governors, both single-term and second-term governors. it is on record that the governors overwhelmingly rejected the direct primaries simply because Tinubu and his men in NASS arranged to have them treated like Ambode. moreso, it was reported that the APC governor's forum led by Atiku Bagudu (who is still in charge by the way), went to Tinubu's residence in Abuja to beg and prostrate to the Jagaban to allow Ambode to complete his tenure, but baba shuns them. Now, he is running after the same Bagudu, even going to the Kebbi Lodge to beg then. They are sure to require their pound of flesh on behalf of Ambode.
Religious sentiments: Since 2015 Nigeria has been governed by a Muslim, Muhammadu Buhari. If another Muslim from the South takes over from Buhari in 2023, the Muslims would have had another 8 years, making a total of 16. Now when power returns to the North, obviously another Muslim would take over for another 8 years. In total, the Muslims would be president from 2015 - to 2039, a whopping 24 uninterrupted years. That is NOT FEASIBLE. Hence, rational as the delegates are, they would avoid such a trap that would easily hand power back to the PDP. The delegates would rather vote for Osinbajo than Tinubu.
Running mate wahahala: We all recall the challenges that Buhari faced in choosing a running mate in 2015. Buhari was under pressure to avoid the Muslim-Muslim ticket in 2015, even with over 10 million Northern votes in the kitty. Tells that with a Tinubu's candidacy, it would be tougher for APC. Firstly, Tinubu does not have the cult following that Buhari commanded in 2015. Secondly, the North would never accept a Northern Christian VP, this is an unwritten law. Adopting such would mean FAILURE in the North. Hence the only option that Tinubu would have is a Muslim-Muslim ticket, which would FAIL woefully at elections. Even APC NEC would advise against such a move. The obvious alternative would be Osinbajo.
Unaccounted Baggages: Accountability is the acceptance of responsibility for one's own actions. It implies a willingness to be transparent, allowing others to observe and evaluate one's performance. Integrity is the quality of being honest and having strong moral principles; moral uprightness. Measured on these two words, Osinbajo would beat Tinubu by a clear distance. Firstly, Tinubu has held Lagos to a stranglehold for the past 23 years. He has made sure that his son controls all the key revenue-generating sectors of the state, the numerous toll gates, etc. His daughter controls all the markets in Lagos, his son-in-law is in NASS, and his wife is a senator for life, he receives 10% tithes from Lagos State. These are baggages that Nigeria's state cannot accommodate. Even now, he has closed NURTW in Lagos and handed it over to his cronies. Is this the type of person that Nigeria wants to give power over the nation and national treasury and power? Responsible delegates would avoid such a person because, when push goes to shove, Nigerians would be better off without such baggages. Hence the Osinbajo appeal would suffice.
Academic and foundational credence: Tinubu's state of origin, early education, age, and birth are all mysteries. Noone knows where he is from. Noone knows his father, no one knows where he got his first school leaving certificate nor his high school certificate nor diploma. All we hear is that he graduated from some University in the USA. There are those that say that his daughter is 61 years old while Tinubu is claiming 70 years old. That is a mystery too many to be overlooked. Hence Osinbajo would come as a sterling candidate to sell rather than a Tunubu with these baggages of unexplained mysteries.
Conclusion: Osinbajo would trounce Tinubu in APC primaries. However, APC may not form the next government, no matter who they field!
You prolly haven’t heard of married men who train kids that aren’t theirs.
MadeINchenzen2: Perhaps u were trying to be smart as a street dude who wouldn't take such responsibility. Don't make your life hard, if you got a girl pregnant... I mean if she told you about it, claiming you are responsible, DO NOT DENY IT & DO NOT TELL HER TO GET RID OF IT.
E get why !!!
It's common with most single guys to deny a pregnancy, probably because they are not ready for it, or they dont have plans of getting married or that the lady is not good enough for marriage or that they don't want to be sudden unfortunate dads or that they are so broke— so they run away, never to be seen or heard from again for many years.
DON'T DO THAT... E GET WHY !....
If a lady you had sex with, protected or unprotected... says she's pregnant for u, do not say words like " How?, who's responsible? because we both know I used protection" dont say that... that's lame.
If a girl gets pregnant, its never a question of whether or not you used protection, It is a question of "Did you have sex with her or not?"... and if the answer is YES... then u shouldn't be asking lame questions or trying to dodge responsibilities.
E get why !!!
If she says she's pregnant for you simply ask her "What do you want to do?" If she says "I want to keep it" just say... "FINE"
E get why !!!
Though u won't get married yet but support her all through until she put to bed and follow through as the baby grows with child support.
If there's a woman out there who should be getting care and support from you which she's not getting because u went into hiding. Try and call her right now, try and establish a rapport with her, know how she's doing, know how the baby is doing. Don't ignore her permanently....
E get why !!!!
My 1cent
All young single mothers kindly drop your AZA, let me do something in the spirit of Easter !!! You are loved!
