Very sad. The mother may have to accept him/her as gay, cross dresser, transgender or whatever else. For her sanity and peace of mind, it's best to concentrate on the other children or even adopted children who make her happy. This life is short.

Mystoree:
I plan on giving her just that, I have began already, we spent a complete day together and had fun, but it is going to take a while before everything settles in, we all need to remember that the human mind does not have a delete button.

Please keep loving and caring. She'll be fine though it's an unforgettable event. You've got to move on. Since the incident wasn't reported almost immediately, the chances of diligent prosecution is slim. Also, if it's an area that she frequents out of necessity, she could be setting herself up for more trouble if she reports without strong backing.

Meanwhile, let her report to Mirabel Centre at LASUTH in Ikeja for post trauma evaluation and treatment in case there's an infection which may not be evident yet.

No supervising engineer was appointed to oversee the project?
No one observed when the construction exceeded the 15th floor?
The building control agency staff involved should be held responsible along with the owners.

WesternOligarch:
Am not even a strong christain but I find it funny how some christains act like men of God are oracles that act as an intermediary between them and God... Didn't that stuff end in the old testament If you have a personal relationship with Christ you won't be constantly needing your pastors to see visions for you.

True. A personal relationship with God means that you can hear from him directly. You won't need to deal with self appointed pastors who are neither called nor chosen.

So yesterday wey be chilling day we all know as e dey be as joli fellows now, as a man wey no dey dull I went to this bar around Asokoro / AYA round about yesterday evening to chill and hang out with my cousin while watching football ⚽.

But something happened that damped my spirit yesterday, a private lower rank soldier that was wearing a track down and his army vest yesterday came into the bar with whom I supposed was his girlfriend and sat down next to us, he was very close to me in particular while the girl was sitted at the other end, what struck me was that he told the bar man to bring peppered chicken two plates but make his own to be just only pepper and onions and to cover the top properly with saviet paper so the girl doesn't notice, then he should bring one five alive and one table water for him because him no too hold money for pocket.

This really shook me because i was surprised as to why he could not just ask the girl to take something cheaper so the both of them could enjoy or even tell her outrightly that he doesn't have enough money on him so she should support him or so?

You see we guys atimes are the architects of our misfortunes because we always try to please and form big boys at the front of our women, I always tell people that a woman that you can't tell you are down financially or can't occasionally assist you with the bills is a total no for me any day any time.

Guys go through alot from Uber for the girls, to paying bills at the chilling spot, to trying to make her happy throughout the whole period you are out with her, to protecting her and finally paying her Uber back home it's just too much for me to handle believe you me and I feel it's totally wrong.

You're right. A life of pretence will lead to more demands from the woman without guilt feelings. He's presenting himself as being capable of meeting her needs, whereas he can't.

A woman is meant to be a helper as designed by God. She's to add value to his life. He's expected to provide for his family no doubt but he doesn't need to starve to death to feed his wife (not girlfriend o). That will be counter productive. Proverbs 31: 10 - 31 summarises it all for the woman.

Odumakin wife don go Bleep outside like a typical Afonja woman

Ignorance is a disease. Bitterness is destructive to body and soul.

She's from the East by the way.

Congratulations to her and the family. I pray that this will uplift her from her sorrow over the sad loss of Yinka. May God grant her all that she needs to care for the children. Amen

I just learnt that the school is in Makoko. The video was done by a Church which wanted to assist the owner with fundraising. The owner built it for out of school children but the place was always flooded. It has been demolished and will be rebuilt. LASG Commissioner for Education will do something about it shortly.

Most disheartening! So oppressed and yet so committed to the nation. Suffering and smiling indeed. May God touch the hardened hearts of our leaders. Amen

Who knows where the school is? Perhaps we need to do some fundraising to help the kids stay in a more decent environment if the LG in charge doesn't care.

How about areas where residents are forced to pay taxes to them? Have they not taken over the land (even if temporarily) from the owners who are forced to flee? That's an act of terror in my humble view.

I don't know but what I do know is that we south west don't have much soup probably just 3 or 4 popular soup variety and that's all

My Igbo family friend on the other hand is always cooking different stuff, they can afford to rotate soup for complete two months without repeating any variety, Yoruba options will be exhausted in less than 2 weeks of regular cooking considering you cook soup every four to five days

We have many actually. I mentioned some in my previous post. Some like ogbono (apon in Yoruba) and bitter leaf soup are also traditional Yoruba soups.

I learnt from the elders who grew up in the villages. We do have different types of vegetables cooked in various ways but most are hardly available in city markets. Some are seasonal.

For instance, I don't see amunututu (local spinach) in markets but it's usually available in Asian/Lebanese stores.

Afriqan:
That's so true. We lost most of our traditional foods to westernisation. We are always the ones to stop a child from speaking our native language and adopting bread and sardine instead of Eba and Egusi... SMH

People are becoming wiser now. People now know that those veggies are highly nutritious. Those living abroad are sending their kids for Yoruba language and culture lessons.

Afriqan:
I love all 5 Yoruba soups: Efo Riro, Ewedu + Gbegiri, Okro soup and Egusi... Yum!

Actually there are more Yoruba soups which are now virtually lost to urbanisation. Ebolo (like coriander) and Worowo (bologi) soups for instance are made from highly nutritious vegetables. It's only recently that I started seeing ebolo in some Lagos markets though It's a seasonal veggie and most common around Osun/Oyo states.

There's also Obe Isapa (roselle) with or without egusi that is taken with pounded yam and Elegede (field pumpkin) soup.

TarOrfeeek:
Even if an Angel comes from heaven to inform me that eating Ewedu will stop all of Earth's problems.

Please, let the problems continue.

I'm not going to guzzle hydraulic fluid.

Ewedu is medicinal.

Primitive people! If it's so easy, how come the ritualists we've seen captured all look wretched? Shouldn't they be rich? Eni maa daso fun ni, ti orun e laa wo.

Some of our people need a reorientation program to educate them on the fruitlessness of these crazy ventures and the damage it does to humanity.

Unfortunately, compliance deteriorated under Ambode. Now there's total loss of control.

Great feat! Congratulations to the family.

God bless the efforts of Amotekun personnel much more. Do the crime and do the time. I hope justice comes swiftly with the cooperation of the Police and the Courts.

The guy only needs a visit to a psychiatric/psychologist for starters. That will define his rehabilitation needs. Arresting him will only aggravate his situation.

If this story is true, the lady is mean! I wouldn't tolerate my daughter doing this to her mum inlaw. It's grossly unfair to her and a destabilising factor for the man who will be confused and miserable. That balance between the two most important women in a man's life must be maintained. It's the surest way to give a man the peace ofind needed for him to thrive.

May God never bring a daughter inlaw like this my way. Amen.

The amount of fierce looking security personnel loitering around the classroom is enough for the lecture to award them.....Let My People Go Grades

It seems that they graduated with good grades.
My hope for an additional degree in law has been rekindled since I can graduate within 2 years.

Yorubas are not fools. No one considered religion when we all queued up to vote in Abiola whose VP was also a Muslim. I'd rather vote for anyone who shows the capacity to turn this nation around even if he/she is a traditional worshipper from some remote village. Our problem now transcends tribe or religion. God can use anyone. He qualifies the chosen. When the time comes, God will intervene and sanity will prevail.

All will be well in due season.

Person suppose go for this train ride ooo, even if na just lagos to Ibadan on a wknd getaway.

Pls where can I purchase tickets and get travel info?

If you're in Lagos, the train leaves for Ibadan at 8.00am. on weekdays. The return journey is at 6pm. I think it's 8.30 am on Saturdays. You can confirm on their website.

Tickets are sold at the Stations...Mobolaji Johnson in Yaba and perhaps Babatunde Fashola in Agege.
Omi Adio and Moniya stations in Ibadan.

I've travelled to Ibadan on the train. Nice experience.
Clean, cool environment with adjustable seats if you want to sleep. Sockets for laptops/ phone charging. Clean toilets, boxroom for heavy luggage apart from the overhead racks. Security personnel on board.

The First class and Business Class look virtually the same to me...maybe a little more leg room in the First class compartment.

Fahdiga:
Afonjas again

Looks like names from the South South. The point is that they're all Nigerians. No one cares about tribes on the international scene.

AG should name the lawmaker. He should go further to prove that the fund transferred was used to purchase arms for Boko Haram.

Foolish headslammers.

I finally found where Quran commands these terrorists to slam head while they worship God.

Foolish mooslims.

Below is a picture of the Quran verse that commands Muslim terrorists to slam head.

All Muslims are terrorists because they slam head. The Quran verse below just prove that further.


Alright, I'll help you. Here's another verse of the Quran that encourages killing in the second picture.

And the the third picture encouraging Muslim terrorists to stone their kids to death if they are rebellious.


You're hundred percent correct. Further evidences that Muslims are terrorsts in the pictures below.


Very great. We Christians are save from catastrophic commands and way of life like the ones in the Quran verses below.


Those wicked Muslims are following the Quran verses like the ones below.

You're quoting the Old Testament. The New Testament is at root of Christianity.

Abohboy:
And especially in cities like Ibadan unless they decide on building a new modern area outside of the main area but it's either they repaint the houses and give them proper roofing or they just demolish them all and put modern buildings in their place it's the only way for the cities to actually look good

Ibadan has many large modern estates. It seems the only portion you've seen is the ancient part of the city which is more prominent online. That's where the old family compounds are. Also the Palace and old markets. There's a thread here on NL depicting some of the new areas.

Ridiculous and funny assertion! Let's hope there's sufficient proof. Who is the lawmaker?

Still waiting for the list of Boko Haram and "bandits" sponsors.

Issokay, we don hear. Sunday is a Muslim terrorist abi?

Can we now have the full list of Boko Haram sponsors?
