shortgun: Same way Tinubu used tribalism to divide the country. I see no difference between shekau and Tinubu. Nigeria will never be the same again after Tinubu. The damage he has done will take more than 600 years to correct
How old are you? How many years have you seen?How old is Nigeria itself,abeg go sleep
Did you read the story very well at all that one of them was loading Ak 47 in his profile picture? what further witnesses do you need again? Could they be repentant terrorists?
My wedding was scheduled for March this year, but everything changed after my fiancé's father passed away unexpectedly in November.
His funeral was held just three weeks later, in December. I genuinely wanted to attend, but there was one major problem: my employer had a strict policy against granting leave during the December holiday period. When I accepted the job, this condition was clearly stated. Despite explaining my situation and pleading for an exception, my request was denied.
I informed my fiancé immediately. At first, he appeared understanding. I even contributed financially to support the funeral arrangements.
Then his mother called.
She told me that if I truly wanted to become part of their family, I had to be physically present at her husband's funeral. I tried explaining my circumstances, but she ended the call before I could finish.
When I called my fiancé afterward, I expected him to stand by me. Instead, he asked:
"If it were your own father, wouldn't you find a way to attend?"
I explained that the situations were different because my employer might make an exception if it were my immediate family member.
That was when he dropped the bombshell:
"No presence. No wedding."
I thought grief was speaking. I thought time would calm him down.
I was wrong.
The wedding was officially cancelled.
My family tried everything to reconcile the situation, but his family refused every attempt. Eventually, my father advised me to accept the loss and move forward with my life.
It broke me, but I did.
Months passed.
Then, on May 20th, my ex-fiancé called me.
What he said left me speechless.
According to him, I had failed the test of being a good wife because I stopped trying to convince his family after the wedding was cancelled. He said a "real wife" would have kept begging until she was accepted.
Then he announced that he had "forgiven" me.
Not only that, he had already chosen a new wedding date in August and expected me to start preparing immediately.
As if the breakup had never happened.
As if my feelings didn't matter.
As if he alone had the authority to decide when a relationship ends—and when it resumes.
Without hesitation, I told him I was no longer interested.
His response shocked me even more.
He said:
"I'm not done. You don't have the right to be done."
I blocked his number immediately.
But that wasn't the end.
A few days later, he appeared at my father's house carrying the bride price and all the marriage items he had previously rejected.
My father told him clearly:
"My daughter has moved on. As far as this family is concerned, she is no longer available."
Still, he refused to accept it.
Since then, he and his mother have continued calling, visiting, and pressuring both me and my family despite my repeated refusal.
Now I'm beginning to wonder:
Is this really about love, or is there something deeper behind their sudden determination?
What troubles me most is the mindset that someone can cancel a wedding, disappear for months, return when it suits them, and expect another person to simply obey.
I am now considering legal action because the constant calls, visits, and refusal to respect my decision are becoming disturbing.
My question is:
If someone ends a relationship, then later decides to "forgive" you and resume the wedding without your consent, would you see that as love... or as a dangerous sense of entitlement?
What would you do if you were in my shoes?
Truly,the wedding is concluded and finished,the mother in law will take over the house When they eventually married. Why should the husband be taking decisions from his mother? All these mummy's boy.My dear God has delivered you from life's troubles,move ahead,the lord will provide your own husband.Marriage journey is a lifestime journey and one cannot afford to play hide and seek game on the way.
Btruth: I don't know if we still have the immigrations in this country again self? Why are all our boarders so porous? .....but thorough investigation should be done though. Because these ones look innocent to me, except deadly weapons were found with them. They look to me like they want survival ☹️
we have more than enough immigrations in Nigeria,they stay mostly in their offices sharing money.How on earth would these rats and rabbits enter Ikorodu just like that.No be juju be that?
Mitsurugi: They wanted to join the brisk booming bizness in Naijeriya
Fellow Nigerians if you see something say something.We can never go the way of sudan.Of a truth these evil men are here.l guess they are alshabab terrorists from central Africa.
thinkmoney: There is a serious illiteracy issue in Nigeria, and it affects the way we see problems and the way we proffer solutions.
Many of the people being arrested by communities in Lagos, especially the ones in Ikorodu today, are not Fulanis or bandits as they have been tagged. In interrogation, you will hear most of them say they are from Sudan. The ones from Sudan are most likely not Fulani because the Fula ethnic group is not a major ethnic group in Sudan and South Sudan. We have the Dinka, Nuba, Arab Sudanese, etc., as some of the major ethnic groups there.
The ones from Chad may very well be Fulanis or even Hausas. These two tribes are many in Chad. You can even tell from their physical features.
Many of these men that are being arrested in Lagos, at the back of the recent surge in kidnappings in the southwest, may very well be just immigrants. One will not blame the locals much, because everyone’s nervous now.
However, if Nigeria had been a largely educated country, many of these problems would have been averted. Thankfully, the communities have shown, at the least, that they are civil and we haven’t heard of lynchings.
immigrants carrying Ak 47? why are we deceiving ourselves?
Just imagine these wearie beings like rats comfortably creeping into Nigeria for suicide mission calling it network buz.By the powerof the great God it shall not be well with them and their sponsors.No doubt, they don't just arrived by accident, somebody gave them accomodation.How are they gather together from Kenya,sudan and chad? Did they come with airplane or road transport.which affliation business did they have.Find out the currency intheir pockect,collect all the documents found in their possession.After all these findings, if they cannot explain convincingly,get them executed straight,no mercy.

Rapmoney: A woman was paraded yesterday at Ikom-Obudu Road, Cross Rivers State for using her poo to fry Akara that she sells to people. Trust Nigerians. They showed her a little bit of love and affection.
wickedness is as old as history.To me, this is no news.Many years ago there was this woman who used to bring àmàlà for us in my primary school.Her soup was first class but not too fine physically.One day,,the woman confessed she has been using human blood and flesh to cook for us,she used ashes in place of yams or cassava flour to make Amala for us. What a terrible world.l was later told the woman was a witch.
UncleAyo: They are commanded to convert the whole world through the sword but Islam is failing already. The Internet will be the end of Islam.
They have lied for so long due to followers' ignorance and the translation difficulty, but the truth of their idolatory religion of stone worship is getting exposed day after day now. A fool says in his heart, there's no God.
It is only a matter of time.
Zoroastrianism was once a very popular religion (Abrahamic religion got their concept of heaven and hell from that religion), where is it today? Other religion are gone too and Islam is a no difference.
All these fake imported religions have destroyed the normal mental processes of a lot of our people.
If you are following any of the two religion, you should know for fact that:
There is no heaven, there is no hell, there is no God (or god), there is no Allah, there are no angels, there are no demons, there are no spirits, there is no life after death, juju don't work, there is no eternal judgment, there is no karma, there was no historical Jesus. All those are figment of human imaginations and tools use by a very few some to control the very many others. The earlier you understand and accept these facts as facts, the happier and merrier your life and existence will be.
The religion you're currently claiming is the religion of your parents, if you were born into a different family of another religion (say Hinduism), that is the exact religion you will practice.
You were born without a religion in you, your factory reset has no religion in it. If you were to be a phone and they do factory reset on you today being a phone, there will not be anything found related to religion in your settings, files and file systems anymore; you learn religion only after your birth growing up.
Islam is idolatry and paganism, Christianity aswell is idolatry - All the world religion is idolatry, including all the Abrahamic religion. Holy communion is idolatory, bowing for a stone call Kaaba of the Bedouin tribes is also idolatory, killing of rams is idolatory, kissing or licking of a stone at mecca is idolatory, throwing of stone at pilgrimage is idolatory too.
Infact, Illah is what the Arabic call God and not Allah. Allah was one of the diety been worshiped before the invention of Islam. That is why muslims will say something like "la ilah ila huwa" meaning Allah is one Illah (God). Have you ask yourself why Prophet Mohammed's father who was an idol worshiper and who lived before the invention of islam has Allah in is name Abdullai== Abdu Allah? It is because Allah has been an idol worshiped by paganists before the Prophet received his revelations.
Nakedly circumambulations of the Kaaba, annual prigrimage to mecca, kissing of black stone, bowing towards the stone (stone worship) are all preislamic pagan practises by the nomadic Bedouin tribe and the same is what they still practice today.
All Abrahamic religion are idolatory, they only package them well and condemn your heritage as evil, whereas, Nigeria was better in terms of morality, honesty and integrity before they brought the foreign religions.
In peace loving, emotional intelligence, love for neighbors, respect for sanctity of life, we are even better than those who brought those religion with primitive leaders and prophets whose morality and characters are highly questionable.
Release yourself today from the shackles of religion. Stop wasting away your life and existence!
If you like, allow one illiterate alfa, imam or pastor to keep telling you "you will go to hell". When you die, your dead experience will be like the same experience you had before your conception (pregnancy) ie. There is nothing like afterlife. Or where were you before your mother gave birth to you?
Far beyond Sharia,the Yorubas should not treat this request with kids glove. To hell with sharia law.This was the request succumbed to by the northerners today,tell me the dividend of sharia?Death or life? The law that places death on people's lives by force should be jettison in Atlantic.
akingangan: The question is, would a Yoruba or Igbo man be deep inside the forest in Sokoto
Read the statement again,the northern farmers doing their innocent job in the Southwest? An interesting question would yoruba or igbo be doing their innocent farming in maiduguri or bornu land? Infact the only solution is let everyone go to their own territory.Those who must stay in another's mans land should be fully registered and confirmed.
SonOfWords: APC clown, how does this jargon even remotely relate to the subject in discourse😐?!
Everything is politics,l quite don't no the correlation to the issue at stake.We are talking about insecurity, someone is talking about 2023 election results. 'He that is often being rebuked,but harden his heart will suddenly be destroyed and that without remedy' says holy writ.
Salako01: Lol, Sowere is a great man but needs to partner with like minds and build more bridges so as to accomplish most of the things he wish for Nigeria. Else, he will die and those goals will die with him. I wish he will partner more and not be a one man show.
Its just unfortunate for him,as mysterious as God is,he may be the one God has destined to rescue this fail state from her predicament.
muyico: Then come home 🏡 We at home no get two head nah
Abi oo, no place like home.Its even better you die at home than a foreign land.of a truth this British racism is first class comparing with Germans.My advice,if London is not good or south Africa,go to Netherlands or Lithuania
We4all: Before the Fulanis started kidnapping, there were others who were deep into it and made lives miserable for Nigerians. At this point, it doesn't matter whether you are a Fulani kidnapper or not. Our goal is how to put an end to it.
Until the federal government begin to execute these kidnappers the trend will continues.kidnapping is as old as history.
CaseSensitive: Can someone collect this man's phone and cut him off from the internet please? Someone should tell him that terrorism in Nigeria is a political squid game engineered by foreigners and perpetuated by local actors. You don't "pray" your way out of situations like this.
You need serious fire for fire and eradication of these evil men from our forest and nothing more.
Hmmmm,Giripa ko ṣilẹkun a fi eni ti o ba ni kọkọrọ lọwọ meaning its not by how powerful or how great the people are for the release to take place but the main action should come to play fire for fire and the captives released.
This is what the unbelieving and unfaithful husband/wife always get.God told Abraham 'l have made you Father of many nations' he believed God,but the wife say let me help God by allowing my maid to get baby for my husband.Today,the world are under the torment of the descendants of the child Ishmael born out of wedlock to Abraham., When would men ever learned?God has mercy!
oyeomere: Abraham and Sarah did it naw so it's not new that's why we have Islam and Christianity today
You can imagine what Christianity is suffering from the hands of jihadists till today,one sin would always leads to another and the chain continues.Na the boss Cross ❌ let him carry it.'Alaigbagbo ati onisekuse ' God has vindicated the innocent poor legitimate wife.
