Travel / Re: What Else Can A Man Do To Please A Woman. (UK EXPERIENCE) by DesireV: 11:57am On Mar 15, 2023 |
Insultme:You're actually smart and I want to believe you brought the matter here just to share it and make it light on your chest, not for advice or what to do or at best to have better insights from plenty replies. You're the only one who can decide what to do based on what you can tolerate or what you know about the matter that's beyond the scope of the write up. Sit back, weigh your options and take the best decision. Meanwhile, get clear evidences before approaching her, especially if your conclusion is to let her go. Meanwhile, if I were in your shoes, I wouldn't have brought her to UK without a clear agreement on what her contributions to family upkeep would be when she starts working. One person, especially a student, can not fund a family in the UK without breaking down. Even skilled couples pool resources so that both parties can return home with reasonable savings. Except you're there to be her slave. Trying to fix this at this stage might appear to her like you're being envious of her earnings. Secondly, I can NEVER settle with a cheating partner. No matter who she is or how good she has been or what's at stake, cheating is one of my red lines, cross it and that's all. I won't cheat and will never tolerate it. Like, the mental picture of my wife being ridden by another man is not something I can cope with. This is just me anyways. So, weigh your options and do what will give you the maximum mental well being. 6 Likes |

Penguin2:I hope a random tweet isn't what LP will present to the judges as evidences. What I simply asked for was spread, not winning margins. Infact, let's assume Obi had 2m votes in each of the 11 SE & SS states. Let's further assume he had 2m each in Lagos, Nasarawa, Plateau,Kogi, Benue, Taraba, & FCT while the other candidates had zero in all of these 18 states. He still needs 25% in 6 more states to satisfy spread requirement. Let's assume SW's liberality even gave him all of the Votes in Ekiti and Ondo, those are the 2 SW States with highest Christian population. Still 4 to go To think Obi can have 50k people (if only 200k people voted) to vote for him in each of Osun, Ogun, Oyo, Kwara, Niger, Bauchi, Gombe is nothing but delusion of the highest order. I'm glad we both agreed on the 7 NW states. Get this imprinted somewhere in your heart, nobody can ride ethnic/religious train to Aso rock. Those who drafted the constitution were smarter. This exactly was what the smarter candidates knew that made them go into negotiations in all zones. Wike working for APC is part of the negotiations. He wasn't asked to rig. Remember same Wike was your favourite when he was romancing Obi. The analysis above is just the best case scenario for Obi. He can't have 25% in Ekiti and Ondo. Was just trying to see if we would reach 24 states. He would definitely be required to prove that he had 25% in 24 states before his prayer of being declared can be granted. That's after he must have proven that the declared winner and the first runner up had lesser lawful votes than him. 2 Likes |

Penguin2:That's great. I just hope you won't rubbish the judiciary if the outcome isn't favourable. Buhari lived in his own mind severally, thinking his northern/muslim votes actually won him the seat till he came to term with reality. Of the 19 northern states, Obi's ethnic/religious based campaign can only sell in Benue, Plateau, Nasarawa, Taraba, Adamawa. Then FCT. Benue has a Rev father as APC's gov candidate, his Christian followers would logically listen to him more. With the heavy religious tone his campaign had, how exactly can Obi have 25% (125k) of average of 500k votes in each of the 7 states of the NW that's almost 95% Muslims or 4 of such states in the NE. Don't let's even reckon with Niger, Kwara and Kogi. Nobody can wear a toga of ethnicity or religion to the presidency, not even someone from a zone with the lowest voting strength or a religion that's not the majority. If such mantra can work, Buhari from NW (with the highest voting strength) and a muslim (with higher number) would have won with CPC. I hope the damage his pattern of campaign will do to his tribe and religion be minimal. 1 Like 1 Share |

dmahn:How Christians blatantly dragged religion into pure politics is what I'm yet to understand till tomorrow. These politicians have no religious motives, they simply want to win elections. Osun State has more muslims than christians, yet Oyinlola and his deputy were Christians and governed for almost 8years. Despite the brazen manner with which he funded churches with public funds, muslims never allege a Christianization agenda. Oyinlola heavily funded the Cathedral Church of All Saint while the State Capital's Central mosque was an eye sore. Everywhere was calm. Aregbesola, despite having a Christian deputy was alleged to have an islamization agenda in barely 2 years of his administration. He wasn't funding Islamic projects. Christians mobilised against his reelection in 2014 but failed because they gave a religious tone to the campaign and since muslims were more, Aregbe won. Today, the governor of Osun and his deputy are Christians. No complaints. Infact, the governor's hometown is an ancient muslim town. I seriously don't know why Christians won't let politics be purely politics. If they continue to make national politics religious based, like they have done this year, I'm afraid Christians might not smell Aso rock again 2 Likes |

Penguin2:Apart from the 16 states where Obi was announced to have had 25%, can you mention 8 more states where he had 25% but was rigged out? He can only be declared the winner if he's able to prove that he had highest lawful votes cast & had 25% in 24 States. To do this, he would have to prove that APC & PDP rigged and that all of his own votes were lawful. 1 Like 1 Share |

Politics / Re: Tinubu Pledges To Tackle Almajiri Problem In The North by DesireV: 8:15am On Jan 04, 2023 |
zeyt:You understand the thing. It's an ideology problem which is one of the greatest problems to tackle. Only the poor northerners can proffer the solutions,the elites can only support them. Unfortunately, the solutions the poor will provide will dig a deep hole in the government's purse. They will want government to fund these almajiri mallams while the parents keep birthing the children. They simply want to shy away from responsibilities of parenting using seeking Islamic knowledge as an excuse. They feign ignorance of the fundamental obligations on parents as enshrined in Islam. Preaching parenthood in Islam is the single most effective solution to the menace. In Islam It's a grave sin to born and not properly raise. This is what the mallams tend to downplay to the parents since they use the kids to their advantage (begging, political value etc) There are poor people everywhere and if they need to beg, it'll be the parents doing the begging or at worst, with the kids. Not leaving preschoolers to fend for themselves. I have been moved to tears at the experiences of these kids, whose only sin was being born unlucky. The middle class is almost non existent in the North. It's either you're rich or poor and education is that most effective bridge between those classes. A good number of the poor people embrace almajiri, the rest who don't, the government schools are grossly non functional. I have been in a state capital in the North where primary schools run shift due to lack of facilities. Like, some batch of children would go in the morning, some in the afternoon. A local said as a kid, the term he was grouped to the afternoon session, he wouldn't go because he would have been exhausted in the afternoon to start going to school. Think of what happens in the rural areas if this is obtainable in the capital. Functional basic education is arguably the best the government can do to give the poor the opportunity to ascend the social ladder. Most Northern state governments aren't doing enough in this sector and it's from schools that these poor children can be aware of the duties of government and citizens, then demand their rights from the government. |

EgunMogaji2:The opposite is actually the case Most people talking about the highest they have gone either say they won't try such again or warn against it which means. I think it's more of an awareness thread and it has personally prompted me to institute measures to make me not likely to exceed 100 again. 1 Like |
